Is it a tougher test? I'm not convinced that Colorado's defense is better than UTEP's. Colorado had the worst defense in the country last year, and nothing that I saw on Thursday makes me think they are too much better. Not that UTEP's defense was some fierce force, but I think it will be easier to run on Colorado than it was today. Which should open up some potential big plays for Dylan through the air.
Yes I think it will be tougher. Should be easy to run but CU left theiir DB's on islands and loaded the box against the run. Not expecting that against us. Maybe they know they're shit against the run and it will be similar. Not sure?
If he wins next week, the girls track team.
Do you expect it to be marginally tougher? UTEP might be a bad defense, but so is Colorado. I legitimately think Colorado might be the worst defense we see all year...
Agree with the above except the culture shift thing. He has a big role in it from a confidence part but Rhule has been working on that non stop since he got here.
It’s so nice to not watch an athlete attempt to play qb
It will be tougher because the offense will have pressure to respond when Colorado inevitably scores.
Colorados offense is wildly better than UTEPs. They will get their yards and scores. Sheduer Jimmy and Travis are too god
I'm not saying the game won't be tougher, I think it absolutely will be. I'm still slightly worried about the game.
The thing we have going for us against Sheduer is he likes to wait a little longer to get his receivers open. Last week he didn’t really get the ball out very fast. He’s going to have to get the ball out quick next week against our DL otherwise Nash & Ty are going to be skullfucking him all night. It looked to me like our defense actually is a little faster this year but that could also been just the competition.
Got it. I worry about getting into a track meet is all.
100%! NDSU has multiple chances to stop a play for a short gain, only to take a bad angle or miss the tackle and it turned into chunk plays for Colorado. We need to be better.
That’s the key
Ok, so I'm not the only person that is sort of thinking the same thing?
Yep. Need to infuse the roster even more this year to bridge the gap to the younger guys because we lose a lot of experience on both sides of the ball.
It was more than a quarter. Play calls were very vanilla after we got up
tone, let’s fill up some balloons Friday nite at the Elks club for the sCUm fans . I’ve got the bladder of an elephant
