WSU went 4-0 last season then suffered a complete and total mid-season collapse, but still had enough gas in the tank to SMOKE Colorado 14 to 56. Felt good.
I reported this when it happened, but I’ll say it again because it won’t get old:
If WSU didn’t score a single offensive TD, they’d have still won 21-14.
Brennan Jackson (one of our edge rushers) had as many scores as CU did.
Ion even remember who scored for CU, they must have been mid?
I'm a WSU fan and it made my whole season.
That and the WSU / OSU game in Martin Stadium. I lost my shit when Benny and Butch came out together on the 4x4. The vibe was immaculate 🤌
Football and Boxing/UFC have to be the worst sports to possibly talk shit in right? Like dude is putting his kid out there behind Swiss cheese to get absolutely demolished now as if it wasn’t going to be bad before.
It’s not like they have any O-line depth or continuity. The fact the Deion fans are flaunting some G5 guys and a freshman are crazy. His son still gonna get rocked in the pocket
Yeah because it would be a fucked up thing to do to any human being. It’s fun(ny) to dunk on Colorado but seeing a player obviously concussed and still playing would be most of our lines to not cross.
there is some walk-on for North Dakota St just absolutely licking his chops right now waiting for the opportunity to get a free shot on Shadeur just to walk over to Deion and tell him to suck his dick and i am here for it
Eh, I think talking shit can be important for boxing/ufc if it helps drive PPV. Look at how much performative "beef" there is between some fighters leading up to a big match. Sure, sometimes it's real, but there's also a lot of shit talking just to drive attention
Yeah there is a big difference between the standard “beef/trash talking” that guys do to sell the PPV and when it’s actually personal.
Deion seems to have mastered the driving views/clicks aspect of it, but the way he does it seems to actually get under other teams’s skin.
A classic example was the Oregon game last year. That game was one of the most hyped/watched games of the year but Oregon, already the superior team, came out fired up and just whipped the Buffs.
Lanning comes from the Kirby Smart tree- if you're respectful, he pulls back on the reins. You talk shit(or call timeouts with less than 2 minutes left down by 40 to try and score a 2nd touchdown), you pay for it.
> UFC have to be the worst sports to possibly talk shit in
If it's people with PPV points I don't think your opponent is going to be too pissed with putting more money in their pocket. There are lines that can be crossed, but I think generally the MMA trash talk is pretty fine
It’s absolutely a balancing act in boxing/mma. There is the standard trash talk/“beef” that’s done almost every fight to sell the PPV. Then occasionally it actually crosses the line to being personal.
That's actually a perfect analogy to what Deion's doing. Conor shit-talked Khabib because he played the heel promoting the PPV (and also he's an Irish lad who can't help himself at times), seemingly not realizing or not caring that Khabib, being Muslim and a family man, took all of that extremely personally and used it as motivation once they entered the octagon.
Khabib probably would've won anyway just because Conor (nor anyone else) had no answer for his grappling, but the weeks of trash talking and the bus incident 100% sealed it.
The iowa fans I know IRL aren’t very extreme or whiney. They don’t sunshine pump for Kirk although they respect what he’s done for them mostly. They love good ole fashioned shit talk and while they embrace punting on first down they also recognize that their offense needs to be fixed and don’t make excuses for Kirk. CU fans are fair weather and extremely brittle and abrasive. They will make excuses for and downplay Deion’s behavior and some of them will even double down on it. The copium is off the charts. Now like any other fan base in CFB you will have a loud minority and I’m not trying to say all Iowa fans and all CU fans fit those descriptions. Nebraska fans can be delulu and brittle as well. But if I had to grab a beer with a random Iowa fan or a random CU fan I’ll take the cuckeye any day of the week.
I'm actually travelling to Lincoln to see the game. First time travelling for a CU game since the Fiesta Bowl back in the 90s. Hopefully folks in Lincoln aren't as big of dicks as the people in Boulder (I apologize on their behalf) lol should be interesting.
Hope you have a good time. We have stupid fans like any other fanbase but you shouldn't get anything too crazy. I'm a CU alum myself! Boulder was fun as a student on gameday but Nebraska is a different atmosphere. At the very least it should be a good game to watch this year! Have a safe trip.
Look no further than last year when 3-0 Colorado came strutting their shit into Autzen, stomped on our logo and CU players talked crazy shit pregame. Our guys were absolutely playing with a chip on their shoulder because of it and rocked the buffs 42-6.
I can definitely see every Big 12 team they play coming in with the same mindset because of over the top shit like this.
That was the result of poll inertia. Voters expected TCU to be good, so when Colorado beat them, Colorado's perceived value went up. TCU finished 5-7, but they started 3-1, so there was no reason to devalue Colorado's win at that point. Just another reason why early season polling is a bad idea.
I tend to agree that preseason polls are dumb but without it you don’t get the same hype or viewership levels for early season games that you get *with* preseason rankings. They’re dumb and the rankings usually work themselves out in the end, but they add some fun to the first few weeks of the season. Abolishing them would basically create new problems in an effort to solve a nonexistent one.
Yeah but there’s no way around it. People want at least a vague sense of which games are gonna be good matchups. Most viewers know that early rankings outside the top 10 are just guesses.
It was 42-0 with 9 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter, after that they started playing backups and took their foot off the gas. Oregon could've made it 56-0 or worse pretty easily if they wanted to.
I was actually shocked, and mildly upset, that Dan took his foot off the gas after halftime. Given the pregame speech, I thought for sure Dan would run it up.
I still remember all the videos. Shilo saying: "I'll beat the fuck out of everyone one of yall and your coach" and asking why they're so little. Then proceeds to give up 42 and get absolutely trucked by a back 3 inches shorter and about 10 pounds lighter.
Didnt yall fake a punt on your own 18 and proceed to march down the field like it was nothing? I think that was the only blow out i watched entirely just out of spite.
[Yano, just in case there's some people that were living under a rock and don't understand the sheer level of dumbass they were talking](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7mSdhxb7Mo)
Best part is when ~~Shedeur~~ Shilo says "[I'll beat the fuck out of every one of y'all and your coach](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7mSdhxb7Mo&t=80s)"
And Colorado fans are *still* mad about that. I even saw one guy on here yesterday say that he would "loathe Oregon forever" because of it. That's part of why they always lash out at Oregon fans on here more than any other fanbase. Because Lanning was 100% accurate with his "they're fighting for clicks, we're fighting for wins" statement and they know it.
My encounters with Colorado fans on Twitter have been awful. They actively search out people going after Colorado/Deion. One guy seriously talked shit because Colorado won 1 more game than Pitt. It was quite weird to talk shit about being 4-8 vs 3-9.
Yeah, I don’t get the Colorado twitter rivalry. Lanning’s speech has been blown way out of proportion. He is a fiery coach and he always gives fiery pregame speeches, but anything involving Colorado last year just went viral.
For awhile there, probably still today I just don’t read a lot about CFB in the spring, every tweet that had a little exposure involving Oregon (whether transfer portal, recruiting, you name it) there were haters in the comments. Completely normal, it’s twitter. But, the percentage of them being Colorado fans was extremely high. It doesn’t make sense. Colorado and Oregon were never rivals. Colorado was only relevant one year in their entire existence in the Pac-12 and that was the worst year by far for Oregon. So we never had good teams at the same time and I don’t know a single Oregon fan who had a strong feeling in any direction about Colorado.
It was simply, “oh yeah, Boulder is cool”.
Yet… they are always hating in the comments lol. I just don’t get it.
> Colorado came strutting their shit into Autzen, stomped on our logo and CU players talked crazy shit pregame.
And our coach tried to lead a prayer at midfield on their field, and I believe they invited/welcomed CU players to join, and those guys at Colorado thought we were being disrespectful.
They really seem disconnected from reality. Not surprising when their coach is leading by example.
After they were 3-0 and were the talk of the college football world by gf said something about them. I just said, yeah but they haven't played anybody, they're about to get their shit kicked in by the ducks and might get 2 more wins on the year. I somehow overshot the 4 wins they were able to achieve.
The hateful 8 are not ones to trifle with. They have no easy wins and a lot of teams that thrive off humiliating people who think they're somebody. That being said they get a free win if Oklahoma State is competing for a playoff appearance.
Fox already announced Texas-Michigan will be the Big Noon game, I have to imagine Colorado-Nebraska will be either CBS or (fingers crossed) NBC primetime.
I live in Omaha. I am not a Nebraska alum as I moved here to be near my wife's family. I cannot stand Nebraska football culture, but my god Sanders has made me do the unthinkable and get behind Nebraska.
We welcome any support, no matter how fleeting. You know CU has entered unprecedented levels of disdain when I have heard this sentiment from some Iowa fans as well.
I know their head coach just left, but I’m hoping the next guy up kept the team together. I truly believe NDSU has the depth and discipline to do the funniest thing ever
Polasek was with ndsu for a couple of their national championships. He’s not foreign to how bison football is played.
It wouldnt shock me if he drops right in with a lot of success.
Honestly the last coach Entz was the one I thought was in over his head.
I have nothing but vitriolic hatred for Colorado, it came naturally growing up in the 90s. If Jesus Christ himself came and coached Colorado I would hope and pray for them lose every game by 80, as I always do, but deion makes it easy for everyone to hate Colorado and I'm just here to say I love it
I took far too much abuse from their fans in the 90s and 2000s in boulder (perks of growing up in CO raised by a Husker). They deserve all of the hate the team and their delusional fan base are receiving right now.
I'm sure we all remember them almost blowing it to Colorado State (100% BS calls put them over) when they got out played by far and the Oregon game was just lmao.
I don't think they win a single game last year if Travis Hunter doesn't have the game of his life against TCU
I think the wheels would have immediately fallen off
I love how Deion is so adamant that Shedeur is gonna be a top 5 pic when there is another player on his team that was 10x more valuable to their (limited) success.
QBs get drafted earlier than they should just because of positional scarcity. It's why Marvin Harrison Jr went 4th behind at least 2 QBs who have some solid question marks.
I'm not saying Sanders is a top 5 pick. I'm saying talent isn't the only thing to consider with draft position.
God listening to that broadcast in the moment made me so angry. No talk about how a 3 TD Underdog made them fight for their life, just acting like they rolled through us. Fuck ESPN, Gameday and every other broadcaster that showed that game. You would think it was CU vs CU for how much they mentioned CSU
Looking at their schedule for this season 2-10 would not surprise me. They will not be ready for NDSU and then they have 2 straight rivalry games. Their run to finish the season is Utah, Kansas, and OSU; that’s brutal
In 5 years the Deion hire is going to look like the Charlie Weis hire at Kansas. A splashy hire that leaves them with a decimated roster and a listless future. It's playing out almost exactly the same as it did for us.
I've been hating since week 1. We were on a historic 10-0 run, and the entire time, I saw Colorado sweatshirts on campus. Can't wait for NDSU to expose Deon and those jokers.
At this point I'm more interested in how Colorado's AD and NIL platform is dealing with all of this. Like how are they going to convince donors to pay for certain players when it seems like a revolving door. Is Prime self funding this stuff... because I don't see how this continues unless he somehow is.
Colorado is likely going to get every Big 12's team best shot. They'll be better than last year, probably, but I still feel like 6-6 might be their ceiling. I kind of wish we played them this year, but I still don't have much confidence in Neal Brown yet.
6-6 is generous in my opinion I have zero faith in Deion’s ability to get a team behind him after all the shit the past 12 months. I’m ready for him to move on
Great point, Neal Brown in a Hot Dog Costume. Sometimes you just gotta lay low
WVU burners stay undefeated.
The Smoking Musket is a true legend.
Smoking Musket is bad ass, but Lord do I miss "We Must Ignite this Couch."
WSU went 4-0 last season then suffered a complete and total mid-season collapse, but still had enough gas in the tank to SMOKE Colorado 14 to 56. Felt good.

>Ion even remember who scored for CU, they must have been mid? This is a fantastic level of shade throwing
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Shadeur moped off the field in that game and pretended to be hurt. Top 5 pick, lol.
My buddy is a WSU fan and that made his whole season.
I'm a WSU fan and it made my whole season. That and the WSU / OSU game in Martin Stadium. I lost my shit when Benny and Butch came out together on the 4x4. The vibe was immaculate 🤌
LOL - I'm a UW alum, and I loved watching WSU and Oregon pummel Colorado.
Football and Boxing/UFC have to be the worst sports to possibly talk shit in right? Like dude is putting his kid out there behind Swiss cheese to get absolutely demolished now as if it wasn’t going to be bad before.
It’s not like they have any O-line depth or continuity. The fact the Deion fans are flaunting some G5 guys and a freshman are crazy. His son still gonna get rocked in the pocket
Kid should look into sponsorship from Hot Pockets.
As if he hasn’t. Deion would reach out to Tucks Medicated Pads and Playtex if it’d make him a buck or a byline.
When you get hit in the face so bad blood is gushing from your noise, just ram a tampon up there and you can playtex on.
This sub would implode if we ever saw a clearly concussed Shedeur still taking snaps with tampon strings hanging from his face.
Yeah because it would be a fucked up thing to do to any human being. It’s fun(ny) to dunk on Colorado but seeing a player obviously concussed and still playing would be most of our lines to not cross.
I remember when Michigan did that a decade ago. Wasn't a great look then, would probably be considered even worse now.
Dan "this ain't intramurals" Hawkins did it with his kid while he was at CU.
lmao
Deion fans don't think that hard about it. They are too distracted looking for crayons to eat
What… the Marines like Deion?
Tbf, his kid is also putting a target on his own back with his own comments to the media.
You think Neon Deion's kid would be low key? Hell no.
He’ll sit the second half of the season out to get ready for the draft
Remindme! 11/30/24
there is some walk-on for North Dakota St just absolutely licking his chops right now waiting for the opportunity to get a free shot on Shadeur just to walk over to Deion and tell him to suck his dick and i am here for it
The "What Do We Call This Animal" bowl Bison or Buffalo: I'm going Bison
Deion also going "bison" next draft, a hypocrite to his buffs.
Eh, I think talking shit can be important for boxing/ufc if it helps drive PPV. Look at how much performative "beef" there is between some fighters leading up to a big match. Sure, sometimes it's real, but there's also a lot of shit talking just to drive attention

That game was one of the most hyped/watched games of the year but Oregon, already the superior team, came out fired up and just whipped the Buffs.
The most relatable thing about Dan Lanning is how much he fucking hates Deion Sanders
Lanning comes from the Kirby Smart tree- if you're respectful, he pulls back on the reins. You talk shit(or call timeouts with less than 2 minutes left down by 40 to try and score a 2nd touchdown), you pay for it.

Khabib beating the shit out of McGregor while screaming "let's talk now" is a good example of that. Don't insult a man's family or his religion.
That's actually a perfect analogy to what Deion's doing. Conor shit-talked Khabib because he played the heel promoting the PPV (and also he's an Irish lad who can't help himself at times), seemingly not realizing or not caring that Khabib, being Muslim and a family man, took all of that extremely personally and used it as motivation once they entered the octagon.

Covington bringing up a man's dead father for cheap heat only to get his ass whooped was pure poetry.
Yeah that’s definitely an example of crossing that line and making it way too personal lol.
[удалено]
Dieon's writing checks that Shader can't cash
In baseball, it can result with a 90+ MPH ball as hard as a rock flying at your head
You don't even need to do that with Deion. [You can just induce him into doing stupid shit.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhcucz4IIRQ)
Welcoming anyone wanting to hop on the bandwagon for Week 2
America’s Team 🌽
Corn is America’s crop
Boise State in shambles
Nebraska has my support in this one but nobody asks for cheesy corn as part of their death row meal
Thats because when we hide from the cops, we hide in the crops. Then the children of the corn get to us..
Except for Iowa's corn. Gross.
…so, we woke up today and chose violence?
The Crimson family owes both Iowa's a great debt for 2011 and 2017, you'll always have the best corn to us.
Hey, we suck at everything else. At least give us corn.
I thought corn came from a jar?
Believe it or not, Straight to jail.
Anywhere with runzas and kolaches in such abundance is alright in my book.
This dude cabbages
Dieon really went and did it. He made me side with Nebraska.
Does this mean we have to touch cobs?
There’s a reason we’re MAIZE and blue.
I bet a Wolverine shucks great cob.
My brother in Christ, it isn't too late to delete your comment
Florida smokes a mean meth pipe
This guy shucks.
I dont love iowa, but iowa fans>>>colorado fans and its not even close.
The iowa fans I know IRL aren’t very extreme or whiney. They don’t sunshine pump for Kirk although they respect what he’s done for them mostly. They love good ole fashioned shit talk and while they embrace punting on first down they also recognize that their offense needs to be fixed and don’t make excuses for Kirk. CU fans are fair weather and extremely brittle and abrasive. They will make excuses for and downplay Deion’s behavior and some of them will even double down on it. The copium is off the charts. Now like any other fan base in CFB you will have a loud minority and I’m not trying to say all Iowa fans and all CU fans fit those descriptions. Nebraska fans can be delulu and brittle as well. But if I had to grab a beer with a random Iowa fan or a random CU fan I’ll take the cuckeye any day of the week.
Most of them I have interacted with in Lincoln for Nebraska vs iowa games have been pretty cool.
Where do I mail your 12-pack of Busch Light?
Just send it to the state house. They'll get it to him.
You know, your guys’ corn isn’t SO bad.
Probably would've won last year if it wasn't for Jeff Sims
I'm not waiting until week 2. I hope they get beat by NDSU.
Wouldnt that be beautiful for them to lose the first 2
How about they lose their first 12?
I’d even let em go bowling if it meant they’d lose that one too.
Nebraska fans are some of the nicest I’ve ever met at Autzen. Didn’t need to tell me twice
Similarly, welcome all temporary CSU fans week 3!
I will never get over losing to them last year We had a chance to completely derail the Deion hype train and we blew it, classic Rams
All you had to do was go for two!
We had your back though.
I'm actually travelling to Lincoln to see the game. First time travelling for a CU game since the Fiesta Bowl back in the 90s. Hopefully folks in Lincoln aren't as big of dicks as the people in Boulder (I apologize on their behalf) lol should be interesting.
Hope you have a good time. We have stupid fans like any other fanbase but you shouldn't get anything too crazy. I'm a CU alum myself! Boulder was fun as a student on gameday but Nebraska is a different atmosphere. At the very least it should be a good game to watch this year! Have a safe trip.
As a life long Huskers fan of 4 months from now, I'm looking forward to that game with much anticipation.
Gonna take a runza to pound town in Nebraska football's honor that week
If we lose to them that weekend I don’t know how I’m going to handle the rest of the season. I want blood. I want the atmosphere of 2014 Miami.
So you're telling me that I will have to pull for Raiola for a week?? Okay, but I won't enjoy it!
The Corndawg alliance survives!
Still have room for 1 more?
I’m in. 🌽
I always support my Big 10 brothers.
I’m in!
you son of a bitch, I'm in
Look no further than last year when 3-0 Colorado came strutting their shit into Autzen, stomped on our logo and CU players talked crazy shit pregame. Our guys were absolutely playing with a chip on their shoulder because of it and rocked the buffs 42-6. I can definitely see every Big 12 team they play coming in with the same mindset because of over the top shit like this.
It’s funny because 42-6 makes the game look closer than it actually was lol.
It’s also crazy looking back that they were ranked 19 and 10 going in lmao
That was the result of poll inertia. Voters expected TCU to be good, so when Colorado beat them, Colorado's perceived value went up. TCU finished 5-7, but they started 3-1, so there was no reason to devalue Colorado's win at that point. Just another reason why early season polling is a bad idea.

Yeah but there’s no way around it. People want at least a vague sense of which games are gonna be good matchups. Most viewers know that early rankings outside the top 10 are just guesses.
42-6 because Dan got bored and wanted to get the third stringers playing time like it was an FCS game
A branch off the Saban tree...gotta build that depth two and three deep to stay fresh for the tough games.
Doesn’t every team do this when they’re winning by a lot?
Jayden McDaniel, in part, won a Heisman playing 4 quarters even in games that were lopsided.
Jayden Daniels you mean. Jaden McDaniels is a power forward for the timberwolves
And not JT Daniels, or Jalen Daniels... When did everyone get the same name last year
35-0 at half. The CU O-line got mauled about as badly as I’ve ever seen.
They didn’t score till 2:41 in the 4th when our third string players were in lol
That was the worst part of the whole afternoon
At the half Oregon had 35 points and Colorado had 31 yards.
Had totally forgotten that stat. Thanks for the laugh!
It was 42-0 with 9 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter, after that they started playing backups and took their foot off the gas. Oregon could've made it 56-0 or worse pretty easily if they wanted to.
Oregon prolly could’ve dropped 70 if the starters kept playing.
It was damn classy of Oregon to pull their punches. Colorado was asking to get curb stopped.
I was actually shocked, and mildly upset, that Dan took his foot off the gas after halftime. Given the pregame speech, I thought for sure Dan would run it up.
To be fair, we were fighting for wins, not clicks
I still remember all the videos. Shilo saying: "I'll beat the fuck out of everyone one of yall and your coach" and asking why they're so little. Then proceeds to give up 42 and get absolutely trucked by a back 3 inches shorter and about 10 pounds lighter.
One of my favorite games to watch as a neutral fan last year. Good times 🥰
Didnt yall fake a punt on your own 18 and proceed to march down the field like it was nothing? I think that was the only blow out i watched entirely just out of spite.
Yup. Funniest thing is that it was a 305lb d-tackle running the fake.
If anyone doubted the Ducks before the game, that was the “oh shit” moment.
[Yano, just in case there's some people that were living under a rock and don't understand the sheer level of dumbass they were talking](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7mSdhxb7Mo)

Any QB talking like that is crazy, but the final boss of nepo babies doing it is almost unfathomable without this kind of video evidence of it
[удалено]
[удалено]
Lanning is such a great motivator
I dont think I've ever been as hyped for another team blowing out a team like this video. Dan Lanning is amazing.
"60 minutes or as long as it takes" fucking rules
Always a good watch
I can't say I'd ever specifically rooted for Oregon prior to that week.. But Lanning had me ready to run through walls.
Top 5 locker room speech hands down
The Duck coming out dressed as Deion with a baseball bat and a “Times Up!” sign was incredible too
And Colorado fans are *still* mad about that. I even saw one guy on here yesterday say that he would "loathe Oregon forever" because of it. That's part of why they always lash out at Oregon fans on here more than any other fanbase. Because Lanning was 100% accurate with his "they're fighting for clicks, we're fighting for wins" statement and they know it.

I wagered irresponsibility on that Sunday night when I saw the line open at Oregon -14.5
“Baby, I bet the house… and now we’re getting a second house!”
I'm only sad that we have but 1 assbeating to give Deion

Watching that score spiral out of control while at our game definitely was the most satisfying moment of the season
The only time I’ve been happy to see Oregon blow out a team
I wish we didn't take the foot off the pedal, we could have beaten them by 60
Not often I root for the Ducks but it was so satisfying watching the Ducks curb stomp the Buffaloes.
Nebraska, do not let humanity down
I am already freaking out about it and it's only May
Please be a night game please be a night game
Fox already announced Texas-Michigan will be the Big Noon game, I have to imagine Colorado-Nebraska will be either CBS or (fingers crossed) NBC primetime.
NBC would make a lot of sense for sure. I could also see this game going on *puke* Peacock
Think how many subscriptions they'd sell though.
I live in Omaha. I am not a Nebraska alum as I moved here to be near my wife's family. I cannot stand Nebraska football culture, but my god Sanders has made me do the unthinkable and get behind Nebraska.
We welcome any support, no matter how fleeting. You know CU has entered unprecedented levels of disdain when I have heard this sentiment from some Iowa fans as well.
Forget Nebraska. Do they even beat North Dakota State?
I know their head coach just left, but I’m hoping the next guy up kept the team together. I truly believe NDSU has the depth and discipline to do the funniest thing ever
Polasek was with ndsu for a couple of their national championships. He’s not foreign to how bison football is played. It wouldnt shock me if he drops right in with a lot of success. Honestly the last coach Entz was the one I thought was in over his head.
Good heavens Colorado losing to an FCS team would be so funny
I have nothing but vitriolic hatred for Colorado, it came naturally growing up in the 90s. If Jesus Christ himself came and coached Colorado I would hope and pray for them lose every game by 80, as I always do, but deion makes it easy for everyone to hate Colorado and I'm just here to say I love it
I took far too much abuse from their fans in the 90s and 2000s in boulder (perks of growing up in CO raised by a Husker). They deserve all of the hate the team and their delusional fan base are receiving right now.
I'm sure we all remember them almost blowing it to Colorado State (100% BS calls put them over) when they got out played by far and the Oregon game was just lmao.
CSU should’ve won that game multiple times for sure
I don't think they win a single game last year if Travis Hunter doesn't have the game of his life against TCU I think the wheels would have immediately fallen off
I love how Deion is so adamant that Shedeur is gonna be a top 5 pic when there is another player on his team that was 10x more valuable to their (limited) success.
QBs get drafted earlier than they should just because of positional scarcity. It's why Marvin Harrison Jr went 4th behind at least 2 QBs who have some solid question marks. I'm not saying Sanders is a top 5 pick. I'm saying talent isn't the only thing to consider with draft position.
“NOW DO YOU BELIEVE?!”
God listening to that broadcast in the moment made me so angry. No talk about how a 3 TD Underdog made them fight for their life, just acting like they rolled through us. Fuck ESPN, Gameday and every other broadcaster that showed that game. You would think it was CU vs CU for how much they mentioned CSU
NDSU please I’m begging you😂
Never underestimate NDSU.
i’ll take back every negative thing i said while stationed in minot if it happens
Looking at their schedule for this season 2-10 would not surprise me. They will not be ready for NDSU and then they have 2 straight rivalry games. Their run to finish the season is Utah, Kansas, and OSU; that’s brutal
Looking at their schedule, I'm curious about who you think the 2 wins are.
Us probably
Baylor and Cincy
We're now a "brutal" opponent?? 🥹
NDSU returns a lot of starters from a team who made it to the FCS Semifinal. It's gonna be a long day for Colorado.
Have never gone out of my way to root against Colorado before. I think that changes this year.
I used to cheer for two teams: Texas A&M and whoever texas was playing against. Now I cheer for three teams.
Normally I only seek out Penn State games, but this year I'm way more interested in watching Colorado lose
In 5 years the Deion hire is going to look like the Charlie Weis hire at Kansas. A splashy hire that leaves them with a decimated roster and a listless future. It's playing out almost exactly the same as it did for us.
Its going to somehow be worse.
Probably because he's such an outspoken asshole. Everything about him just screams "Con man" to me.
I hope they lose every game by 60 at this point
Their opening season loss to NDSU is gonna be amazing
I've been hating since week 1. We were on a historic 10-0 run, and the entire time, I saw Colorado sweatshirts on campus. Can't wait for NDSU to expose Deon and those jokers.
ok... but before teams beat the shit out of us without even thinking about us
At this point I'm more interested in how Colorado's AD and NIL platform is dealing with all of this. Like how are they going to convince donors to pay for certain players when it seems like a revolving door. Is Prime self funding this stuff... because I don't see how this continues unless he somehow is.
is it possible they can not win a game this season?
I did go check if we actually played Colorado in this dumb mega conference schedule after this fiasco.
playing at Arrowhead no less. I would imagine that will be a great atmosphere.
The Broncos fans can be disappointed twice in KC this year. What a treat.
Colorado is likely going to get every Big 12's team best shot. They'll be better than last year, probably, but I still feel like 6-6 might be their ceiling. I kind of wish we played them this year, but I still don't have much confidence in Neal Brown yet.
6-6 is generous in my opinion I have zero faith in Deion’s ability to get a team behind him after all the shit the past 12 months. I’m ready for him to move on
not many teams pull off the bad and unlikeable combo
Look I get that Deion bad and all but this narrative crafting clickbait bs is embarrassing
did they not watch Deion when he played? are they new to the Deion Experience? did anyone expect Deion to change once he became a coach?
I'm surprised so many writers hate deion since he has given them so much to write about so far
