The guy that produced a son that broke a dude's neck is now producing a locker room full of violent thugs?

I've had a feeling that they'll try to intentionally injure our players.
I’ve thought this as well. There is really no good reason to schedule them with how degenerate they are. Nothing good can come out of this. Wish Fraudst could have beat them once and then we could have never scheduled them again for all I care.
 
Of course they will. Still boggles the mind how many people wanted him over Rhule.
I have lived through so many trying times as a Husker fan, and my commitment to the team has never wavered. If we hired Sanders and it hypothetically went down the same way it's gone down at CU, with all the "PRIME" branding bullshit and total buffoonery, I'd say enough is enough and go live in a cave.
 
He's gonna face a 24 year-old All-American vs North Dakota State. I guarantee that will be an immediate step up in competition for him.
That game is sitting at an 8.5 spread...I would not be surprised at all if NDSU pulled a stunner here. It is about as two polarizing of programs as are out there. Small town team that develops and does all of the little things right vs the big-name flashy school with virtually no discipline.
 
Colorado will cover that. I would rather they not galvanize anyway
 
Why do you say that so confidently? Is Colorado better than last year?

Not a professional scout but I think they're marginally better across almost every position group. Certainly have the advantage of continuity from last year which they didn't have in '23 and they brought in better transfers than they did last year too. Impossible team to project given the structure of their organization. They're still a case study

NDSU is getting overrated due to their recent stretch and general hype around this game. Bit of a tumultuous offseason. I like Polasek and heard him talk ball a few times when he was at Cockeye but they won't have the dogs to keep up with CU. Bad matchup for them

Going to have to explain this to me.

I agree with you on NDSU.

I wouldn't say they are better at every position. I'd say they are worse at RB and TE, better at WR and DE. The rest is hard to say so much change. Definitely wouldn't say they have the advantage of continuity with so many newcomers and a new OC and new DC and defensive scheme. Really not much continuity within this program at all.

If I'm being honest, it's the one game all year that I want Colorado to win...barely.

You wouldn't CU thinking that NDSU was their wake-up call.

I want Colorado to win only so that it looks better when we beat the ever living piss out of them.

That being said, if they do end up losing to NDSU, I will enjoy ever single second of it.

... or create in-fighting and finger pointing and start the team crumbling one week in.

I could actually see that scenario being more likely than the team uniting and waking up over a loss to a FCS team.

As other have pointed out, what continuity are you talking about?

They return three starters from last years offense. On top of that, their offense is replacing OC Sean Lewis with Pat Shurmur (a notoriously bad NFL OC), and O'Boyle is out as their OL Coach and is being replaced by Phil Loadholt (first year as a position coach). In additon to a few other offensive coaching changes, they also will be breaking in a first year DC, who also has zero years of experience coaching in college.

Colorado lost their best WR to the NFL, lost their best RBs and are completely replacing their OL with a true freshman LT, a LG who was third-team all FCS, a center who did start two games for them last year (not a compliment), UTEP's starting RG, and Indiana's RT last year (best OL IMO). Their first year OL coach is going to be asked to be a miracle worker...
