Really. Every pizza I've had in Michigan is worse than every bad pizza I've had everywhere else. I might have to grab one and see, but I'm a snob with the pies.

Why North Dakota State Will Win​

Has Colorado done enough to improve the lines?

The skill talent is still fantastic, and there might be a few wonderful players on the defensive side, but the totally miserable lines in the first season under Deion Sanders still have to improve.

The D that was among the worst in the nation last year has to rise up fast up front, and the offensive line needs to be night-and-day better even with a whole slew of new parts in the mix.

The North Dakota State pass rush will be nasty again, the offensive line should pound away for over five yards per carry, but …


Why Colorado Will Win​

North Dakota State isn’t stopping this Colorado passing game.

The Bison defensive front will get to Shedeur Sanders, but not often enough. Colorado’s receiving corps is beyond loaded - adding Will Sheppard from Vanderbilt and LaJohntay Wester from Florida Atlantic was big - and this will quickly turn into a firefight if 2 gets hot right away.

Expect at least 300 yards from Sanders - North Dakota State only allowed more than 270 passing yards once last season - but …


Colorado vs North Dakota State: Who Will Win​

Here’s the problem for Colorado.

North Dakota State struggled against teams that ran well, not those that could throw.

It might be a new year, and these might be new teams, but even with Colorado trying to balance things out a bit more, the bread will still be buttered through the air.

Most of the Bison's close games and losses last year came when they allowed more 100 rushing yards, and Colorado might not be able to net that if the line isn’t far, far stronger.

North Dakota State star QB Cam Miler will do more than hold his own, but Sanders will bail the team out with a big late scoring drive to pull out a thriller.
