Official Pre-Game Thread: CU @ Zona at 8:30 PM MT on Friday November 2 (FS1)




That's two guys saying younger guys are stepping forward and saying things. That 17 class is HCMM's only hope.

Ugh, Nixon said they had 2 of their best practices this week. UGH.

It’s still just Tuesday today...maybe he wasn’t including TODAY...
 
I can't recall a team ever turning it around in any significant way after a "players only' meeting. They're seriously ****ed come Friday. This will be a double digit loss.
 
Had planned a trip to catch the game in AZ to watch the game with the fam but cancelled the flight and sold the tix. We all know how it’s about to go down.
 
Final regular season high school football game (no nap possible). 10:30 pm (EDT) kickoff. 7:45 am show time to coach youth football (7:05 departure). It's gonna be rough.
DVR the game
go to bed at 10PM
get up at 5AM, FF through commercials, half-time, etc..
you're done watching at 7AM and gained an hour of sleep.
win/win (unless you're a social media addict)

The best practice ever death knell.

We are furked.

Can we get RG to come out and give Charmin Mac the equally beneficial "Vote of Confidence" ?
 
Oof. Players only meeting and best practices. Not good, except it is a little earlier than I would expect in a “crisis” situation.

The crucial question for Colorado’s slim hope of turning around the season is “When will a healthy Viska be available?”
 
Montez talking about the little things. While that is cringeworthy, he went into specifics.
"Catch the ball" was said twice.
"ball placement" was said once.

As long as he didn't start using Hawkisms......you know-"Cinch some things up" and stuff like that.

He specifically mentioned today as being the best practice.

I'm not trying to sugarcoat this as I'm extremely disappointed and skeptical but I feel like it's a bit better if a player said they had good practices as opposed to a coach. It seems that a player feeling good after practice would mean that they learned something, felt more confident, things worked smoother, etc. I'm probably reading too much into it but seems slightly better.
 
Those " player only" meetings are great until you're down 14-0 in the first quarter and the play hasn't changed on the field and everyone is talked out.

When has MM ever said practice was crap, the focus wasn’t there, we had several re-starts, we had to spend time running, etc.

Ever?
 


Damn, I am just glad there is a microphone up in his face by his mouth, cause the audio at practices has been crap. He says the same stuff everytime, and does not take any blame directly. Total coach speak, would like to see him change up a few of his shortcomings.
 
Sorry guys, Arizona is peaking and at home, with Buffs on a short travel week. We are going to need a slew of mistakes from Arizona to keep it close.
Why? We never seem to capitalize on opponents' mistakes.

Sorry for the negativity, but I'm feeling negative, what can I say.

Yes. Nothing has changed in the talent or team comparison since half time of the Oregon State game, except fan emotion and perception. This game will tell us everything about the emotional and mental strength of this team.

That 2nd half as well as UA's game against UO have caused a lot of people to forget just how garbage AZ has been for most of the season and that we've been pretty good. That said, who knows who comes out to play on Friday, good CU or 2nd half of OSU game CU?
