Colorado v Nebraska

[txhorn_et]

One game does not a season make.
Heck, we even beat the Irish with Charlie.

I don’t see Nebraska putting up more than 17. Colorado rolls in this one.

 

[LonghornDave]

I really like Matt Rhule but I think Nebraska has too many issues to fix overnight. Of course last week I would have put Colorado in the same category.

 

[Giovanni Jones]

Weather conditions in Boulder: too warm for the CU fans to toss battery-loaded snowballs.

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Huskers are hanging in. No score 10:00 left in the half

 

[Giovanni Jones]

Almost a field goal for NU. Bounced off the upright. Still 0-0.

 

[Dionysus]

How do you even be a Husker fan

 

[Walking Boss]

The Nebraska qb is a turnover machine

 

[stanhin]

The Nebraska defense, however, is doing great

 

[Walking Boss]

Can't keep putting your defense in no win situations. Ruhle had better change his qb.

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Defense can't last with an offense like this. Nebraska is killing itsownself

 

[VYFan]

Look at this crowd. What a phenomenon.

 

[TEXAS1983]

Not playing out as I expected. Defensive game, sort of.

I dislike NU intensely, with their destructive Texas penis envy. I mostly just ignore Colorado.

I guess i'll cheer for the Buffs, with limited enthusiasm.

They need to take lessons from Philly Eagle fans and just throw the batteries.

 

[stanhin]

Kicker made good use of his second chance.

 

[TEXAS1983]

Wow.

The Buffs defense is chewing through nails.

 

[LonghornDave]

Look at this crowd. What a phenomenon.

Ill hand it to Nebraska. Their section is full. and there is a lot of RED>

CU very lucky on that last drive. RB receiver doesn’t go out of bounds. Tackled with 1 second left. If NU tackler just held him up for 1 more second, no FG attempt. RB nowhere close to goal line.

In addition to the larger issues, Nebraska is riddled with tiny errors like that play. No situational awareness. Colorado coaches were standing next to every available Zebra.

If the NU qb doesn't go out of bounds on the third down play Buffs don't have a timeout or they are not in position to kick the fg. NU punter not having a good day either. In any event, the NU qb is responsible for all of the Buffs points and has cost his team at least six points if not more.

 

[TEXAS1983]

Can the CU QB come and teach our guys how to throw deep?

 

[nashhorn]

Receivers could help with contested balls too.

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Can the CU QB come and teach our guys how to throw deep?

Can our guys get that wide open?

 

[mchammer]

Our guys were open deep last week. Ball underthrown or went out of bounds

 

[Horn2RunAgain]

Can the CU QB come and teach our guys how to throw deep?

TBH, I am less impressed with Sanders. Holds the ball too long. That last possession he could have easily thrown it away but took a ten yd loss.

 

[TEXAS1983]

You gotta love Nebraska. They get all butt hurt in the Big XII, move to the B1G where there's little natural affiliation, but where they're certain they'll thrive.

Almost immediately, they discover that, instead of living at the center of the college football universe, they've always resided in a backwoods Aggie valhalla, where the sheep outnumber the people.

Way to bugger yourself, Nebraska.

 

[Giovanni Jones]

Wow. A TD off of a reverse. Don’t see that very often.

 

[txhorn_et]

Colorado might just lead the nation in unsportsmanlike penalties. Something tells me Coach Prime isn’t too concerned with that.

 

[Pomspoms]

Wow. A TD off of a reverse. Don’t see that very often.

you certainly wont see that play call from Sark. He doesnt believe in trickery and the opponent knows that.

 

[MeatHeadHorn]

CU certainly plays hungry and they have talent at skill spots. Will be interesting to see how they play against the Oregons, USCs and Utahs of the world.

It’s been chippy on both sides.
