MODERATORS
Evidently Colorado's weakness is teams with a defense.
You know what, if/when CU wins this, they're gonna be way over-hyped before conference play and will get railroaded by some of those PAC teams
Nebraska d making solo tackles in the open field. I haven't seen that in years.
This defense doesn't deserve Jeff Sims.
Colorado really does have a gorgeous campus & stadium. One of the most scenic settings in CFB (although, to be honest, I like most stadiums and campuses)
Boulder as a whole is ridiculously beautiful.
Hell, the whole state is beautiful. Boulder especially so though.
I hate to admit it, but you're absolutely right.
Nebraska doing Nebraska things now.
Bad luck on that FG. Evidently, if Nebraska didn't have bad luck, they'd have no luck at all
They are lucky enough to be in a conference where there are even worse teams.
I've heard we mined every ounce of good luck in the state during the 90s.
Wooowwww totally bogus penalty for a phantom unsportsmanlinke on the sideline. That really sucks
Yeah. We have no trouble sabotaging ourselves. Definitely don't need any help from the refs. Hopefully it's the only one and this game doesn't look like the KU game yesterday.
Welp. Here's hoping N can make a substantial reset over half time.
One of those substantial changes has to be taking Sims off the field.
Hoping Nebraska's defense can keep us in this. The offense isn't it.
Not encouraging to let Colorado convert on that 3rd down. When you had 2nd and 24, you have to turn that into a stop
Jumping offsides to extend the drive also does not inspire confidence.
Let's go "Choo-buh", I guess. Lol, who sees "Chubba" and pronounces it "Choo-buh".
That was a short drive. For Nebraska's sake, I hope they can find a way to score points on defense and special teams...
Looks like they're kinda starting to get a run game going.
What is that throne on CU's sideline? Is that their turnover gimmick?
Ooof. Just fall on it, man. Brutal turnover.
Are the refs calling this game a little tighter because it's a rivalry?
I don't know if it's because of that. I feel like it always varies from crew to crew.
Nebraska out here tackling themselves now
Sack, to running QB TD. Good ol' Nebraska, triggering heart attacks in fans.
I know they're saying the "L" on the jersey stands for "leader" but, come on, in a sports context "L" always means loser. Why do you think they rebranded Super Bowl 50 to abandon the Roman numerals?
Fun fact: They rebranded to 50 over L to preserve aesthetic balance
TCU with the transitive win over Nebraska!
I hate that this is now a world where I want Deion to prove that he assembled a really good team.
Just got home from the game. Still pumped up from running onto the field. Great win for Colorado.
