Nebraska vs Colorado official prediction thread

[HerbRedman]

They didn't talk smack this year before the game cause they knew it was coming.

Correct.

I believe the CU players all knew this was coming. This offseason I was 100% certain Shadildo and his guys were gonna pull some shit on our N pregame, start a small skirmish, etc. But I actually think they knew this beat down was coming so they all kept their mouths shut all week.

When I heard Prime's ode to Rhule on TUES, I think his players were like "oh shit, were gonna get assfucked this Saturday aren't we?"

Were you able to stay confident the whole time Herb?

I had a moment of doubt when the BGSU and Tulane QBs were causing some good defenses problems early in the day, but then I remembered how crappy Colorado's OL was and stayed confident in a comfortable win. Think we kinda nailed the big things that happened. Even the blocked kick.

You better than I sir! Nice job


I wavered a bit and had some NU PTSD around Thursday night. But when I saw all the gambling website pickers picking Nebraska to cover I knew it was probably in the bag. I made it all offseason and all week with my -21 prediction. I just wavered one night out of the last 365 lol

NU -42
CU -24

I think CU tacks on some meaningless points late, but our defense is going to be playing with their hair in fire, and we were very vanilla vs. UTEP. Anyone who thinks CU will put up more points against us than NDSU is a moron. Feel free to bump this next week.

Bump

Bump

Was talking to a friend of mine and he made a good point. Kind of glad they had a little bit of let down in the 2nd half. Might be a little more ready for Illinois. Little more motivation to clean up the sloppy stuff.

Ya the last thing we needed was them thinking they didn’t need to practice this week and then getting sickos committee’d against a directional school this weekend

I actually think the 2nd half film on offense is gonna look downright shitty when they view it this week. WRs missing blocks. OL missing blocks. Timing off. Etc

I'm assuming they'll work way more on their downfield passing game too. Not to mention special teams.

There's a shit ton to work on.

Yeah the refs were bad but we didn't play well on offense either. In addition to what you said there were 3? busted plays.

We've won easily the last two games and the offense hasn't clicked yet.

In the second half

In the first half DR15 murders them and we go up 35-0

Then in the second half our committee of running backs runs for 250+ yards to bleed the clock

If only

We were a tiny overthrow of Lloyd from making this spot on (Alvano later misses the FG).

This game was actually almost so much worse. Hold calls and a few just misses and we legit could have had 2-3 more tuddies and you would have really seen sCUm fall apart.
