Good special teams by Utah. Something apparently impossible to get at Nebraska. Makes me mad every time I think about it. Seems like it’s been forever since our ST hasn’t been terrible and lost 2 or 3 games for us.

Utah amazingly has great team speed at skill positions that shows up on their returns. With Washington gone we don't have that kind of speed.

The announcer said Utah's Head Coach is the Special Teams coach. He coaches them personally because he realizes how important they are. And it shows in the statistics. Take note, Coach Frost.

Figured cu would play them tough for about a quarter, then the Utes would start hammering them. But the buffs are trying to make it a game in the 4th, got 15 on the board.

Head coach runs the special teams.

CU played them pretty well for the first part of the game.

No matter what, I love seeing CU get whipped. I thought Tucker was going to revolutionize defense in the PAC 10. How the hell did we lose these guys...

Utah would be doing the same thing to Nebraska if they were in cu's place, and Nebraska lost to cu because Nebraska is, well, Nebraska.

We are certainly not good, but I think we should have easily beat CU.

It's one year...with not much on defense back from a not so great defense last year.

Tucker has good creds as a coach. Even as the DB coach of the hapless Cleveland Browns, his unit was 7th in the NFL in interceptions during that stretch. Been on every Nick Saban staff. I think if CU isn't successful with him, it's more on the school than him.

K-State finishes off ISU, looks like OU should win, OSU probably won't generate enough to pull it off.

Nebraska couldn't beat them last year or this year, not quite sure where this "beat them easily" is coming from, unless Maryland suited up in cu garb.

Too many mistakes by players and coaches cost the Huskers a chance to win 4 more games, I hope like hell the current staff is good at learning lessons when they watch the entire year again, they need to spend a lot of time in the video room and recruiting to greater heights.

1) We didn't, though.....2 seasons in a row.

2) CU outscored Nebraska 34-14 in the 2nd half/OT. I might agree with you to a certain degree if CU had just come back to win 20-17.

3) Like the Huskers, CU had 3 games that could have been wins....but, like the Huskers, they weren't.

Not saying CU was a better team, but I'm not sure we should be saying that Nebraska should have easily won.
