Utah @ Colorado—November 16th—10:00AM on Fox

For those of you who are whining about the start time, please stop.

The Big Noon Kickoff game is generally either the #1 or #2 most watched NCAAF game every week. Playing in this time slot gives exposure to our school and progrum that is extremely difficult to match.

We are inside of a magic season. Try to enjoy it instead of b!tching and whining about TV networks jockeying to get us on their airwaves.

Anyone who isn’t enjoying every freaking minute of getting to watch 2 and 12 play for our team, is doing it wrong. These are Buffs that will be talked about for decades to come.

In all honesty it's hard not to say they are the two best Buffs ever. Obviously there is Hagan, Whizzer (way too old for me to know about his greatness), Rashaan and some others that are up there but 2 and 12 are the top 2 in my book.

A guy named Cliff Branch played when I was in school, snd he was amazing. Bobby Anderson was also very, very good, a really tough runner at quarterback. But, Branch never played both ways, and Anderson was not nearly as good a passer as SS2.
 
Whatever. I get complaints and I get complaints about complaints. All I know is that Boulder is a top tier place to be on a sunny afternoon in the fall. It is a travesty that we don’t get a single game this year of tailgating midday for an afternoon game. Late games mean enjoying the last part of the afternoon, then bringing extra clothes for the cold. Early means extra clothes for the cold, then being done by the time the day is nicest. Afternoon game times give you everything good. We got none.

College football at this level is dictated by TV bids to fill their slots, not your enjoyment.
 
Durrrrrr. No ****. Still sucks we didn’t get lucky TV bids for a prime afternoon time once this season at home. But we did for several away games.
The reason why we didn’t get more prime slots (Noon Eastern and 7:00 PM Eastern) is because of league tie-ins mostly. Being in the Central and Eastern time zone creates a bigger priority for the mid/afternoon slate of games.

I don’t know, I felt like the 94 team was just more complete which made the Stewart, Salaam, Westbrook, Fauria, O-line situation more satisfying. And then the defense and special teams. 2 and 12 are really good, but I don’t feel the same about them.

not trying to be a jerk, but for the first time since the early 90s i don't actually think this. 2016 was amazing and 2020 was comically good when the low talent capitalized on circumstance. this year we don't have some silly scheme that other coaches will figure out or a few players on heaters above their long term talent trajectory.

we're laying foundations to build on this season. we have two unreal players, but there is more talent in the program and even more on the way. for as many years as this coach leads the program we will draw talent, both in players and coaches, and elevate towards the top level of college football each year. even if we just fill in around the sophs and freshmen from this year we will be very good... seaton, o miller, d miller, augustave, dj mckinney, anquin barnes, taje mckoy, sammy sacks, c hood, b hood, kam mikell, zilinskas, carter stoutmire... all sophomores or freshmen.

if we run the table it will be a great season but prime isn't playing with smoke and mirrors. if we go 9-3 and go to a bowl it will be wonderful. when we get a qb for next year, juju or a transfer, we're going to be building from a position of strength with a foundational culture that will last.

(mods, please move this to the beer on a monday evening thread if it's too obvious i am drunk on fear and hope)
