Oregon will bring them back to earth no doubt. [Reply]
I am not one to follow College Football, but I have to say I had a good laugh when seeing the score today after all the self promotion of their head coach, :-):-) [Reply]

No doubt but I think Deion knows he doesn't have the upper echelon D1 trench players needed but that will change in the next year or two for sure. [Reply]

Sheduer is very talented. But in a team sport it doesn’t matter how good your QB is when the fatties are over matched it’s lights out. (See SB 55) [Reply]

Correct.
He has been saying for a while now that he is 7-8 "dawgs" short of where the team needs to be. [Reply]
I thought the Oregon coach's comments at halftime were precious. It was along the lines of (the score was 35-0 Oregon) "We're not done yet. I hope everyone is watching this game, since they've been watching them (the Buffs) so much this season" or words to that effect. Buffs ran into a buzz saw after 3 weeks of ultra hype and playing against teams who are sub par to say the least. These teams like Oregon are going to curb stomp them hard to prove a point. That number 14 ranking was a joke.
Coach Prime ain't shit when the real teams start playing. Lord, that was an ass kicking... [Reply]
Meh, I haven't paid attention a ton to what Deion has said or whatever, but don't know why people get worked up about it... he might learn lessons in not getting other teams worked up, but he's also taken one of the worst football programs in recent years, beat a ranked team, went 3-0.... and they were 20 point underdogs yesterday; despite anything he said to get his team motivated, everyone knew where they stood.
Whatever he's doing is clearly working, and just like Kansas last year, it's not like they're going from shittiest ever to consistent world beaters in a matter of a season. Deion knows that just like everyone else. [Reply]

Agreed. Seems like some folks just don't like Deion, which is fine. I could care less about Colorado football but I can recognize a good coaching job when I see one. He has already tripled their win total from last year. He could lose out and this is still a better season. Oregon is really good. Everyone knew (probably even Deion) that the Ducks were gonna kick their ass. I think the Kansas comp is a good one. Colorado will probably win 6-7 games and make a lower tier bowl. Good for them.

How many 60 min interviews and prime time fluff pieces did the rest of the country have to see about Kansas? The opposing coach's clicks and wins line was pretty spot on. [Reply]

I missed where Kansas hired a coach from a HBCU who in turn brought a bunch of HBCU players to a Division I school and was successful? [Reply]
