I neither know nor care who or what a "Carl Edwards" is, but get the hell off of my TV
or there will be some serious crotch punching in the offing.
Look, I've already told Utah to suck it. There's no going back now.
Here we go!
Long day waiting

NASCAR is yet another terrible thing to come from prohibition
like income taxes, and women being allowed to vote
Look, I've already told Utah to suck it. There's no going back now.
Actually, that's backwards...
prohibition was a bad thing that came from women voting.
Your overall point still stands.
"Surgeons have determined that doing the wave will, yes, will cause tears to the suprapinatus muscle and the infraspinatus muscle from the throwing of an individual's arms rapidly into the air. In addition, any children doing the wave will be sold to the circus. Do NOT do the wave in the ballpark. Doing the wave is safe at pro football games and Miley Cyrus concerts.

Yep. It even felt like football weather around Denver today.
"That's a white myth, Ken. Like Larry Bird or Colorado."
He's wearing a hat. Thought he said he would wear a visor during the games
It took all of us working together to fail
he lied about Biniemy being in the booth and a 4-3 defense too
FIRE JON EMBREE!

Come one you're going two deep on the rosters
Miller and Brehaut won’t get the playing time
Luck does run better than I thought
Man these announcers really like to say HUH-VAI-EE.

It is the norm for all of the locals
who are leery of mainlanders and have a lot of pride in their local history/language/customs
didn't want to see so much of them
But d looks pretty good as fast as ive seen them in years

In other news
Darrell Scott had 33 yards on 12 carries in the Bulls win at Notre Dame today, …….equaling his career total at CU.
And then he ate a rack of lamb and a box of twinkies in the locker room

Hawaii 3 points, great job D
offense, get your sh*t together
The Ralphie Report - Covering the Colorado Buffaloes on SBNation - http://www.ralphiereport.com/
time of possession after 1
Hawaii 9:53
Colorado 5:07
Not much from Rodney or Richardson, we need to establish them now
The Ralphie Report - Covering the Colorado Buffaloes on SBNation - http://www.ralphiereport.com/
And for the record...
These late starts suck for us old guys in the east. Feels like a Nuggets playoff game….
wow, defense has been amazing
The Ralphie Report - Covering the Colorado Buffaloes on SBNation - http://www.ralphiereport.com/
nice tackle, Orms
how’s that leg?

bad offensive line play IMO

Build on the last possession.
I dont care, three runs in a row.

this offense is positively Hawkins-esque

yep
hopefully can get through the half and settle down in the 2nd

absolutely
The Ralphie Report - Covering the Colorado Buffaloes on SBNation - http://www.ralphiereport.com/
I like speedy
but we need a bigger back to switch him up with
I also don't like this punt formation
of which we’ve seen too much. Scary on the rush. Darragh seems to be handling it well though
Look, I've already told Utah to suck it. There's no going back now.
So is this Dr. Pepper commercial going to continue being a thing?
If so, let’s go back to the Big 12 and FCS

Don't know if it is that desperate yet
but… if it looks like this a few games in, might as well give him game experience.
our offensive line is getting their ass kicked
The Ralphie Report - Covering the Colorado Buffaloes on SBNation - http://www.ralphiereport.com/
you're being overly complimentary
Look, I've already told Utah to suck it. There's no going back now.
I was hopeful but then I kept saying to myself...
this may be a learning year…
Oh my lord. C'mon boys. Mental mistakes are killers.

4 penalties

What is with the fucking penalties
I feel deja vu
3 drives, 2 three and outs for -6 yards
Hansen 2-7

we got fooled again
The Ralphie Report - Covering the Colorado Buffaloes on SBNation - http://www.ralphiereport.com/
You have fond memories of lines that pushed defensive linemen around like toy soldiers
Hopefully Embree will bring those days back.
I hate that I'm most impressed by Darragh
Look, I've already told Utah to suck it. There's no going back now.
O-Line
As I posted earlier, Ryan Miller is way overrated. Every year he tweets big things and then…..crickets. Show up!
Remember how excited Cal fans were to see Marshall leave?
Maybe they were onto something

it was right there
someone needs to punish Moniz for running now.

defense could use a blow
have spent the entire half on the field
Oh boy. Back in the comfort zone of playing like crap.
"That's a white myth, Ken. Like Larry Bird or Colorado."
if Embree comes out in the 2nd half with a cut on his head
I’m calling the season
Look, I've already told Utah to suck it. There's no going back now.
I cannot believe this
The only good thing was the pass rush, which led to their QB running for 1000 yards.
Its like MC hammer pants had a love child with the Ultimate warrior
That’s the new trend.

No P rich = no wins
Hansen looking decent but he’s still having a hard time with his check downs. Could be all the pressure up the middle. Miller looks ok, not great.
