I've been frothing for this game since the clock hit zeroes
and this team had better be the same way. If our linebackers play like they did last week, I fully endorse pulling Webb’s redshirt and throwing him into the mix. Put your muscle where your mouth is. Toledo’s pretty close to Memphis, at any rate

Me too.
I took a vacation day today and it has been the longest day ever. I just want this to start. Man, I want the ball first and I want to run it down their throats

I work for a movie studio
we produce films that are alternately terrible and terrible yet profitable.
By the by, I made this commitment previously- if we have a decent season I’ll buy the season’s DVD and give this track a decent video. It’s not a half bad song.

Yes, much to the dismay of my wife, I’ve been useless around the house today waiting for the game.
Just got back from a quick grocery store run, and somebody made a comment about my CU jersey I’m wearing. It wasn’t a positive comment, something about CSU….
honestly, I'm not sure I could have handled a Saturday to Saturday game
I couldn’t even watch football on Monday after the CSU game because I was so angry (and yes, I am slightly embarrassed about that).
And my boy Barkley goes into the Horseshoe tomorrow!!!!!

SC, but I hate the spread
7.5 with a true frosh on the road with 105,000 fans? Not hot. And Barkley will absolutely force some balls if he’s pressured.

Heavy is the head that eats the crayons
by Hallux Valgus on Sep 11, 2009 6:43 PM MDT up reply actions
True.
18 picks his senior year at Mater Dei.
He’s prone to picks, via forcing the ball. If he lets the run game do the work like against SJSU (I know, SJSU and OSU are completely different), he will be fine.
Does anybody but me think that he really didn’t do much at all in the SJSU game? All his stats were inflated because of how good the recievers were. 90% of his passing yards were after the catch. Heh.
He’s a good kid though. Good head on his shoulders.
it was all about pressure
His offensive line was GODAWFUL last year, and he can’t run. So whenever he was forced out of the pocket, he would make an ill-advised throw down field (I saw almost all of his games. In fact, if we weren’t playing tonight, I’d be watching Mater Dei play). He’s a hell of a talent though, and USC might have the best line in the nation (thanks again, Jeff Byers).

Just wondering,
since you have such an interest in Mater Dei.
I’ve played volleyball and basketball tournaments in their gym.
And its a nice, expensive gym. haha
I went to school in Denver
but my brother goes to Mater Dei. Of course I’ve heard of Dana Hills. I think there were a couple of Dana Hills kids on my bro’s summer lacrosse team last year, and Sean Schroeder was seriously underrated.

I’m sorry, but this is a joke. Hawkins cannot prepare his team to play from the start and then we are forced to try to close strong. Why can he not get this team ready to play before the game? He needs to leave Boulder NOW!

I truly feel so sorry for you guys
This is just like watching a Ron Prince team all over again. I wouldn’t wish this shit on my worst enemy.

Hawkins better book a flight back to another state, cause I think the attorney general

Thank you Colorado
For ruining ALL of college football for me this year. I seroiusly cannot watch any game beacuse it will just piss me off all year long
I know how you feel
I look forward all year to college football season and now this. It’s unbearable
He was blocking the Toledo pass rusher
but the rusher was too small. he couldn’t help but get a hand to the face.
big 12
Thanks for making the Big 12 look like s#%t. Funny 7 days ago you all thought you were gonna win the north. I don’t see you winning 3 games this year. Good thing Watson already said he doesn’t want to coach at CO.
What on earth makes you think we ever wanted him

No you don't.
This is removing any significance to your Thanksgiving weekend game, if Colorado can’t reverse things this season. Nebraska needs CU to be good, and vice versa.
(And I’m a Tennessee fan. No dog in this rivalry.)

Look pal...
I’m not even a CU fan but I’m interested in how the Big 12 does. Don’t get me wrong I want my team to finish better but I can act respectable around others. We’ve got MU fans, KU fans and KSU fans all here being respectful. You unfortunately can’t and that’s too bad.

I dont know about that...but I was surprised by the final score
honestly…of both that game and our game to some extent.

you know I wasn't surprised that MU won...
I felt the dropoff was way overhyped by the media. Gary Pinkel has recruited solid players for this very season and I really thought they would win that game. You are exactly right though the score was surprising. Illinois was a disapointment and I don’t mean that as a jab at MU I just thought the game would be closer than it was.

I am with you
I too was surprised about how little Illinois did, but then marveled at how everyone always forgets in July that Ron Zook coaches Illinois in September…

I truly hate Barnett. But Hawkins has one half to win me over. ONE. After that, I’m through with him

of Hawk on the sidelines, he has the lost of being totaly lost. If I can see it I am sure his players can.

neither did purdue who scored 52 points

missed field goals and giving up the big play is what we are doing

No defense...
…and while Darrell Scott looks pretty good, it looks like Hawkins decided to go to pass happy late in the 1st half once again, giving up on Scott on the ground.
Miracle?
