Now Colorado fans are booing an obviously correct call. LMAO

I mean, what are you actually booing at that point?

Drunk fans are dumb. News @11.

4 TD game. We got a competitive one here

Lol, someone thought CU was going to win this game?

HECK of a catch by 14.

The OP said this was a competitive game

They are being hyperbolic with Caleb Williams, I remember when they were projecting Reggie Bush as the next Gale Sayers

Actually, what he said was that this was "a more competitive game than last week's."

Which appears to be accurate so far.

Nice, INT.

I didn't expect CU to be running the ball as well as they are.

I'm recalling the folks that tried to compare Williams to Mahomes. Does Mahomes miss/underthrow a receiver as badly as THAT?

USC's defense is not great.

Williams is overrated.

Not sure how much that should matter. They're a big time school, ranked 8th? Regardless of how "bad" they are against ranked opponents, they probably should be embarrassed they've given up 4 TDs to lowly CU, a team that won a single game last year, and averaged 13 (16?) points on offense last season?


USC's defense is terrible.

Well, to be fair, Pat missed several receivers vs. DET Week 1. A couple balls were horribly underthrown. It happens.

He put that ball in a box to the WR.

Took advantage of a huge turnover. Very nice drive.

That was a sweet throw

Yeah, that was great ball placement on that throw.

Damn, should I have bet CU to cover? Going to be annoyed if they cover.

I'll be damned. Excellent coverage by whoever that was. CU got a stop against the reigning Heisman winner. Nice job.

USC choking.

Lol, the excuses starting already? USC still has a 2-TD lead. Hang onto your panties

Holy shit, great anticipation throw.

It's a good chance to learn some clock management... like WTF are we running it up the middle for a few yards with 4 minutes left down two touchdowns, and then again with 3:30 left.

And then a 3rd time.... they realize they're losing right now?

Just wow. Miller is having himself a freaking day

These running calls are ridiculously stupid.

Well, shit. CU is going to cover. Damn me for not rolling the dice.

Was thinking the same thing. You have no timeouts and down 2 scores. Now down by one.

ummmm

Great job running the clock CU, USC doesn't have much time to score here.

Yeah, I don't quite understand the plan there. Waste a bunch of time, use all of your timeouts, and then make the score look respectable? The plan CLEARLY wasn't to win the game.

Pretty ass clock management

CU outscored USC 27-14 in the 2nd half. Shouldn't even be possible that CU's defense stopped USC's offense that many times.

Their head coach is a Hollywood wannabe moron. He obviously lets his assistants do all the coaching and his entire job is to promote his brand. A real head coach would have heard the call for a running play and lost his shit and changed the call. His “Primeness” just wants to make sure he looks cool standing in the sidelines and that his kids have on the proper bling.

USC obviously lost interest. Like a cat playing with a dead mouse.

Nice comeback by your Bufs, DC. Big improvement over last week, ESPECIALLY on defense in the 2nd half. They looked respectable on that side of the ball after the break. Even good.

Lol, definitely didn't look that way on the field. or on Lincoln Riley's face.ROFL

Sheduer's ball placement on many of his throws was superb. That anticipation throw was NFL level. hell, there's plenty of starting QBs in the NFL that can't throw one as well as the one he put on Miller there near the end of the game.

Colorado might have had a slimmer of a chance if they didn't waste 2 minutes off the clock. Down 14 points with under 6 minutes and they ran it up the middle for no gain like 4 times. Idiotic.

Miller definitely has some flash. That kid can play. loved the toe tap catch on the sideline. Very Chris Carter like.


And wasn't Hunter and that other speedster out of this game? They might've won with those two available. Great performance by Buf.

Yeah Travis Hunter (WR/CB) was out with the lacerated liver - S Shilo Sanders and S Myles Shluser and CB Carter Stoutmire (all defensive starters) were out.

They were out of TO's at that point they were going to have to get an onside kick either way - regardless of how much time was left.

:thumb:

Heck of a performance today all around. Obviously could've started a little faster to begin the game and running the ball four times on that last drive was questionable, but considering they were 22-point underdogs, CU way overperformed today. Especially on defense, and they're supposed to be horrific on defense. How many stops did they get in the 2nd half anyway? They aren't showing the play-by-play on ESPN.

Don't worry though. All the naysayers will be around soon, with every excuse they can think of. Someone's already dropped the "USC lost interest in the second half," excuse, and to anyone watching, that clearly wasn't the case.

CU might be a ATS money-maker this season.

Appreciate it - I'm just stoked that CU Football is fun/relevant again.

I was never a CU fan as a kid (OU fan here), but I remember when they were decent, even good. So it's good to see them finally playing good football again. And maybe they can make me some $$$ while they're at it.:D

CU forced USC to punt twice and generated an INT in the 2nd half. Also forced a FG attempt that USC missed, so 4 stops by CU's defense against the 8th ranked team led by last year's Heisman winner. Allowed zero points in the 4th quarter. Without three defensive starters.

That's actually pretty good.

I was pretty impressed with their pass rush. I wasn’t paying enough attention to know if they’ve got the horses or if the OL shit the bed. Nonetheless, good performance.

Overall, I think CU's pass rush was probably spotty. I saw several reps where they did almost nothing, but also some when they put some pressure on Caleb.

CU's secondary played orders of magnitude better in the 2nd half though. Coverage was much better, especially in man, and they made some great plays defensing two or three passes that would've moved the chains, and one that would've scored a TD.

It's a big "IF," but if CU's defense can turn in more performances like today, but for an entire game, they'll win more than 6 games this season, imo.


Which, is kind of shocking, honestly. After Weeks 1 & 2, I thought the Buffaloes defense was nearly hopeless.

Generated? USC had a guy WIDE open and Williams under-threw him by a country mile.

I'm sorry, wasn't Caleb being chased/pressured right before that throw? may be remembering a different play, but I thought they got some pressure on him, forcing what turned out to be an underthrown pass. if that was the case, then yes, they generated an INT.

Could be. I honestly haven't rewatched it. I just remember being shocked at how bad of a pass it was.

He was flushed and should have thrown it away. That INT sparked the entire comeback.

Fugg CU. Lose all the games I hope.

A little late for that now. They've already won 3.:thumb:

Riley loves throwing the ball instead of simply running it and chewing clock with a big lead.

I enjoyed whipping his sorry ass in the XII.

Don't forget the moral victory today!

USC got bored and was hoping CU would just give up by half. USC's bored defense in the 2nd half allowed CU's offense to look better than it really is. CU's not even a paper tiger now and Deion knew this all along BUT he did find another freshman dog of WR today for sure. That kid is legit !! Deion needs some serious D1 upper echelon trench players on both sides of the ball and then his team will be legit.

USCs defense is bad and Riley's dumbass didn't milk the clock up three scores with 30 seconds left in the 3rd.

Sorry, but I can't stand Deion because he has started acting like a clown 24/7.

He won some games at a HBCU, and acts like he suddenly reinvented coaching. And to be honest, even if Colorado had issues on the team, I hated the way he treated a bunch of college age kids like they were pieces of shit on his shoe. Regardless of their ability to play football, they were kids and young men. Instead of attempting to coach them up, he didn't even try.

Maybe that is how the business of college football works now, but the truth is almost every player that plays college football never plays a down after they graduate. To me, a college football coach has a job that encompasses more than football.

And saying he wants players with missing fathers or poor home lives for certain positions was absolutely disgusting.

He kinda acted the exact same way Scott Pioli did. Matter of fact, Scott Pioli is a great comparison.

For me, I went from being a huge Prime Time fan, to not being able to stand him. He acts like a classless asshole, and thinks it makes him a hardass, hardline coach, but it just makes him an asshole.

That post wasn't hateful at all; people in this very thread have discussed all the positives of this loss. A reporter asked Sanders about moral victories after the game. Various national reporters have mentioned the term when talking about this game. I'm not sure what issue you have with it being a moral victory, because that's precisely how folks are treating it, no?

Are you somehow confused about the definition?

OP left me a nasty negative rep message and told me he blocked me LMAO

When all of a sudden is this placed filled with CU fans? Fugg CU. Couldn't care less if Sanders is the coach. CU is not our friend.

As an old Big 8 fan so am I.
I can't believe I just said that.

Who they playing today?

A team that Deion should beat.

Right, now I remember. Should be a good game

Barely beat a 1-4 Arizona State team.

The same team that barely beat FCS Southern Utah by 3.

Funny how this thread didn't get bumped til they won. OP is full of shit

Get us now while you still can....lulz lulz lulz. Wonder what would be spewed if Asu finished

USC almost lost at home to a bad Arizona team. They are nothing special.

TCU's preseason ranking was garbage. They just lost to a bad Iowa State team.

Deion hasn't beaten a single good team and murdered by the one great team he played.

Zona should have gone for 2

Similar to Washington vs the Eagles. I found it weird NO ONE criticized that move to just go to OT on the road when you just tied things up in a game you had no business winning

Denverodo is basically ku football with hype

And yet still ranked #8 in the country. The season isn’t over…the Buffs couldn’t even beat any one of those teams last year so yeah this team is better. Take the hateration somewhere else.

Really strange this thread wasn't bumped

Yeah can this thread die now? Kinda like the buffs bowl dreams did tonight?

Nah OP is a Buffs fan even though he never posted about them in all the years he's been on here and didn't even make this thread til they won their first game
