Steven Montez is an American hero and I wish he was my dad.

You were sounding like a European Ambulance at beginning. Wee Woo Wee Woo
UCLA has a very talented front seven and we just dropped 38 on them, with Montez only being sacked once and our running game putting up 214 yards. The OL is not a great unit, but somehow they’re getting the job done no? Also, my comment was more about the Pac being garb than anything else. UW and Utah should be physically better than us in the trenches, but are very much flawed teams everywhere else. USC defines mediocrity this year.

It would please me if Viska removed the name Rea Carruth from any mention in CU football historical record books.
I could only picture the “Back to the Future” dance scene when reading this post.
1. We can honor what he accomplished as a Buff despite what happened later (says the VT fan who supports Tech keeping Vick's banner in Lane Stadium).
2. Just saw, Wiki days Rae gets released next month.

Odd comparison, honoring a guy that killed some dogs versus honoring a guy that had another person killed.
Not asking that Carruth be removed to change the fact of his play at CU, just that he no longer matters in the football history because someone better replaces him in the discussion and future comparisons.
Wasn't comparing Carruth and Vick, I was comparing college fans attitudes towards former players who disgraced themselves after leaving the university.
I definitely feel killing humans is far more egregious, by orders of magnitude, than killing dogs.
Right?!? Lol. In my defense we looked like dog doo doo in the first half...a totally different team showed up in the second half.
And I remember last year people thought he was turrible.
Fixed for accuracy
That TD run by Montez in the 4th was baffling in the stadium. None of us on the rooftop understood what had happened. Camera men feeding the boards bit on the fake and so did the rest of us. Looked simple on my tv this am but under-estimated play right there

We’re going to be worrying a lot about UCLA QB DTR for many years ahead. Yes, he made errors but that kid is going to be special and once he and Chip Kelly get accustomed to one another, look out.
Just twist his leg.
I saw it on one of the highlight shows last night and it was really impressive on that replay clip. They slowed it down and showed Viska in motion getting a fake for a run around the right edge while McMillian followed with a fake to him for a run up the gut. They had red arrows on those 2 players and how the defense completely keys on them - showing the entire defense flowing and converging to stop those 2 guys. Then that last fake from Montez hiding the ball and slipping out around to left edge with nothing but open field in front of him.
Great play design. Great players that the defense has to key on. Perfect execution. That was a thing of beauty.
And great set up all night long.
Maybe. But outside of a great throw on the TD and a hudini sack escape and run on one play, he did not play well at all. I didn’t think he looked good throwing the ball at all.
I do not care what the record of our opponents is right now. This team is special and we finally have talent all over the field. This was a fun game and while there will be growing pains, it is finally so much fun to watch CU football again!
I was not that impressed either.

Radio guys said he missed about 4 big plays that could have been long plays. He learns to hit those, he’s scary.

That's the kind of creativity that haunts opposing DCs all year long.
Our previous OC didn't present that kind of problem.
