That's actually pretty good.
Generated? USC had a guy WIDE open and Williams under-threw him by a country mile. [Reply]

I'm sorry, wasn't Caleb being chased/pressured right before that throw? may be remembering a different play, but I thought they got some pressure on him, forcing what turned out to be an underthrown pass. if that was the case, then yes, they generated an INT. [Reply]

Could be. I honestly haven't rewatched it. I just remember being shocked at how bad of a pass it was. [Reply]

USC got bored and was hoping CU would just give up by half. USC's bored defense in the 2nd half allowed CU's offense to look better than it really is. CU's not even a paper tiger now and Deion knew this all along BUT he did find another freshman dog of WR today for sure. That kid is legit !! Deion needs some serious D1 upper echelon trench players on both sides of the ball and then his team will be legit. [Reply]

USCs defense is bad and Riley's dumbass didn't milk the clock up three scores with 30 seconds left in the 3rd. [Reply]

Sorry, but I can't stand Deion because he has started acting like a clown 24/7.
He won some games at a HBCU, and acts like he suddenly reinvented coaching. And to be honest, even if Colorado had issues on the team, I hated the way he treated a bunch of college age kids like they were pieces of shit on his shoe. Regardless of their ability to play football, they were kids and young men. Instead of attempting to coach them up, he didn't even try.
Maybe that is how the business of college football works now, but the truth is almost every player that plays college football never plays a down after they graduate. To me, a college football coach has a job that encompasses more than football.
And saying he wants players with missing fathers or poor home lives for certain positions was absolutely disgusting.
He kinda acted the exact same way Scott Pioli did. Matter of fact, Scott Pioli is a great comparison.
For me, I went from being a huge Prime Time fan, to not being able to stand him. He acts like a classless asshole, and thinks it makes him a hardass, hardline coach, but it just makes him an asshole. [Reply]

That post wasn't hateful at all; people in this very thread have discussed all the positives of this loss. A reporter asked Sanders about moral victories after the game. Various national reporters have mentioned the term when talking about this game. I'm not sure what issue you have with it being a moral victory, because that's precisely how folks are treating it, no?
Are you somehow confused about the definition? [Reply]
