Not sure the "quality" actually matters.

Shenault with a toe injury. Those can linger.

This is going to be a beat down. Only thing Buffs are playing for here is to keep the loss under 20 points.

Overreaction to losses (or even bad quarters of games) are always fun to watch.
This will obviously be a very rough game, especially with UW getting the kick in the ass loss this week. But we actually match up better with UW than we do with USC. We’ll see. At least this week the game is early so I’ll know why I’m drinking by mid afternoon.

It helps that Gaskin is banged up with a shoulder injury and the RB2 is limited after hyper extending his knee yesterday. They've got great depth, but it still helps because Gaskin has destroyed us every time we've played. I believe that one of their top DLs is missing the first half, too, because of a targeting call this week.
Got to get up early to get the crowd out of the game and while their pass rush is limited in the first half. Put the game on Browning's shoulders in the 2nd half and let the chips fall where they may.
I want to see a lot more of Jaylon Jackson now. The way he moves out there shows why he was a 4* even after not playing his junior season (until he got hurt again his senior season and the services dropped him to a high 3*). He's dynamic. May be an opportunity with MacIntyre likely out this week.

Any CU fans figure out how to captain a boat for the sailgare and is in need a crew member who BYOB’s? Will swab deck for Udub sailgate experience.
Anybody know the status of Viska’s toe injury yet? Sorry if posted elsewhere, just haven’t seen anything.
He looked very fast off the line. If that dude can get healthy, watch out.
Hopefully the offensive coaching staff gets their collective heads out their asses and Montez doesn’t drink 5 Red Bull’s before the game and the real CU offense show up
He is too effective in the middle of the field to fit in this offense.
They will move him outside
I want to see the coaches get Jones some packages at TE. I know he’s raw and doesn’t understand the playbook, but it’s going into week 8. Coach him up on a handful of plays and get him involved

They've got to incorporate a te in this offense or at least get something in the middle going.
If they aren’t even going to try, I don’t know why they have 4-5 scholarship spots being used on that group
A nice donation to Gary Bernardi's retirement fund.
I mean, honestly, though. Poplawski getting hurt again can’t just shelve the TE in the passing game. They might as well try to acquire more OL to fill the blocking “TE” position and hope that more quantity in that group results in better OL play.
It is really annoying.

If the last B means you’re bringing the Boat and just need a skipper, I’m your man.

This is all I got to work with.
And that’s only if I want to lug them to the airport and pay the baggage fees.
Here's the thing with Washington: they are not a dominant team, but they control games reasonably well. If the score is really bad, we will have played very poorly.

Ooh. Good idea!This is all I got to work with.

The early kickoff makes it tough to do a lot before the game, but after should be fun.
Here’s to hoping the Buffs learn from yesterday’s game and fix what they can. Don’t want to wake up in a bad mood next Sunday.
Gotta stay healthy. Their OL is a group of maulers. Backs run hard when healthy.
D is a group of physically gifted, knock your ass off, nasty swarmers.

16.5 seems high.
The spot is bad. UDub pissed and Petersen doesn’t allow letdowns.
Unit mismatches and power ratings are probably greater drivers. Hard to think of one unit where CU might have the edge, maybe ST?
The one thing I do like is that when they win UDub usually does so with game control rather than blowouts.
Not sure I’d touch this one, at least until injury report is more clear.
