I thought that was one of those "automatic" wins for us?

Ya still gotta play the game.

Colorado State lost to Hawaii last week, a team that went 3-9 last year. I hardly think how Colorado fares against Colorado State tells us much.

The umpire that announces penalties has some major guns on him. He must run a gym in his day job.
Do you like the way he went with the short short sleeves without the black cuff to accentuate the guns? lol One thing is for sure. Either CU is really good or CSU is really bad.

It was also the most points Colorado has scored on them since 1996.So CSU has allowed 43 and 45 points in 2 weeks..

Never the less Colorado looked good last night and should be a high scoring affair next week..

Exactly. There will be points scored next week. This defense of ours might be very good by mid to late season, but I suspect there are going to be growing pains early on.

This game with CU both worries me and excites me. It worries me for obvious reasons: I want a win and I want us to be 3-0 going into B1G play. Very important for bowl eligibility this year. But it excites me because it will be a very good test of where we are right now. I am glad it looks like CU might have a decent team. If we win it will give us a quality win over a quality opponent which will be a big momentum booster.

Bobo doing his best Leon Fuller impersonation. Won't last the season, and may need to take a leave to focus on his health.

Probably not a high scoring affair. CU could have scored quite a bit more than 45 but they shut it down 3rd quarter. I would worry more about CU's D than the O anyway. The O shot itself in the foot a little too much for my tastes, but the D was very solid. CSU went 400 yards and 30 points in a quarter against Hawaii, but didn't get 300 yards against CU with backups in mid 3rd quarter. The D is much improved to say the least. I see a low scoring slobber knocker type of game where both offenses struggle. I don't see Nebraska with it's freshman QB scoring a ton of points in this one and I don't see CU scoring a ton of points on the road in Lincoln (when have we ever in Lincoln?).

I’ve been telling people if Montez is on we have our hands full and they have a transfer RB who is better than the guy who graduated. I think CU may be favored in this one. If we look good today, it will be a battle, otherwise I’ll have to listen to their gloating for a year.
