And so it begins...(tracking Coach Prime decommits/transfers)

I just want to see the entire Sanders family crying real tears during the game. Doesn't seem like that's asking a lot.

I'm pretty curious how west coast-y the new CU offense is going to be. Seems to play some of Shadeur's strengths, but also seems like a lot of ask of a roster with a ton of turnover.

how many "hail mary's" is he going to throw b/c his OL can't block.

Shotgun...two step drop...heave to a spot and pray Horn Jr. or Hunter catch it

But, but, but......we had to go to Ireland so we could expand our "brand".

I'll just say it as plainly as I can, it was the money grab, profile building, exposure hungry, marketing geniuses that have fucked Nebraska football just as hard as anyone in the last 20 years.

On the other hand, all we had to do to prevent said debacle was to beat a team that finished 1-11. I don't blame anyone for setting up a cool trip for fans and players (who hadn't been to a bowl game in their careers). Don't onside kick up 11.

Was the 7 on 7 planned, or did they just spontaneously get rid of the linemen when they saw how bad it was?

I have to imagine it was somewhat planned, they have basically zero depth along the lines, especially offensively. But Sanders was running for his life a bit, and their run game looked pretty bad minus a long one here and there.

Selfishly, I just don't want the way Deion is building a roster to work in any way. Unlimited transfers that are eligible immediately are one of my biggest frustrations in college football right now because I don't feel it does the athlete favors like many think, and it hurts programs.

To your point, year 2 you should start to see signs of what is being preached. While a non-conference game in year 2 isn't the end all be all, Rhule can't get beat by someone doing things completely opposite of him two years in a row. They have Sanders, Hunter, and Horn Jr., but other than that they are mediocre at best. I just watched their spring game last night and their OL is so awful that we should have a field day against them.

Agreed. Really want Colorado to crash and burn and be ridiculously bad. Fist just because I hate Colorado, college sports is better when Colorado is terrible. Second is for what you said, I don't want any credibility to the way Sanders has built his roster as I think it's bad for the sport, fans and the players.

But, at the same time, I want some credit for kicking the ever-living dogshit out of them on September 7th.

I've bet he loves to take a sack, right on his chin

 

[1HuskerDad]

He gave up a sack on the 2nd play of their spring game and it really wasn't even close to get his hand on the guy. Our JACKs will have a field day. Their guards didn't look any better, they were routinely getting pushed into Sanders' lap on pass plays, and Colorado doesn't have a Robinson or Hutmacher playing DT.

The only reason Sanders had time to throw in their spring game is because they went 5 wide many times and he got rid of it in a hurry because the defense was playing soft. I'm hoping White has enough confidence in our DBs that he plays up on their WRs and let's our pass rush go to work.

Paging James Williams!

I met a Colorado fan in Petersville the other day.
He’s from Minnesota and somehow chose the puffs as his team in the late 80s / early 90s.

I just laughed at him. I laughed and laughed.
He knew it was fair too. He just shook his head in shame.

Is this code for something?

As a puffs fan, he may have wanted me to give him a good rogering. I don’t pick up those types of hints though.

Yes, @huskermack has fantastic tits.

Great write up. Thanks

 

[Stan Raymond]

I have to wonder how serious Colorado is taking their running game. Their top 4 RBs transferred out, now Sanders says walkon Charlie Offerdahl is the starter at this point. I would have to think that will change with the tOSU and Arkansas transfers, but they are still much worse off in the RB room than last season, where they had more penalty yards than rushing yards.

They are going to be a very one dimensional offense again this year, but it isn't going to have Sean Lewis to make it work. This is setting up for a disaster and I love it.
