Colorado storming field before game was over

[Delmar]

Soooooo crickets from the prime haters club? 14 point underdogs win by 27. Like I said their one problem has been their Oline. Their oline finally plays a decent game they finally show a semblance of a rushing game and bam. Colorado will make a bowl game. UCF was probably one of the best teams on their schedule this year. The Ranked teams left on their schedule are all overrated. They have a bye week to rest and build on this win.

Prime will never be a hall of fame coach but he is what Colorado and college football need right now.

Correction. College football would move along just fine if Neon disappeared tomorrow. And I think he will once his kids exit. (Unless FSU gets real stupid.) He is a sideshow act and that’s about it. Wake me up when they beat somebody with a pulse.

uhhhhh lmfao...Baylor is not a ranked team but they are not pushovers...
UCF was leading the nation in rushing and a 14 point favorite sitting right outside the top 25. They had a legit scalp in TCU before this.

Why do people always move the goalposts? Literally. Last week it was Colorado wont win another game UCF is gonna boat-race them now its UCF sucks? Same thing before Baylor Game.

My stance has been Colorado will make a bowl game against their schedule. Which by any metric is an amazing turnaround from what they were. Primes value to Colorado and college football is this. He has proven he can turn around a team via the portal without a lot of NIL. Can it be done in the SEC or Big 10.. probably not but schools like Indiana, UNLV and James Madison are making a strong case the roadmap works in other conferences. The great thing for Prime in this argument, and most colleges in the USA, they are not in the SEC. He's done it a new way. I personally think there has to be a bit more balance but he has shown the blueprint. Personality works in this new age of social media. Haters are just as valuable as Fans because its all engagement.

I will lay mine out right here so goal posts cant be moved. In the next 4 games Colorado will get bowl eligible. Winning any of their last 3 games is icing on the cake. Moreover, if they have the same or better Oline play as they had against UCF the big 12 better be careful. Last year they averaged 68 rushing yards a game. This year 80 with that breakout 128 vs UCF.. this makes what Shedur has done with the passing game even more insane. Their pass to rush ratio is 40-23. If they can make team respect they can run...

Why can't people just admit Prime has improved this team and its still improving. You don't have to like him or how he does business.. But we can at least admit it works. They are producing results and generating excitement for their fanbase.. that's the job of a football coach and AD right? There are like 10 fanbases in the country that can realistically expect their team to compete for national championships period.... All of those schools are in the SEC and Big10 as of now. I mean historically not just this year. Colorados fan base is not expecting a natty anytime soon. They are at the multiple years of bowl games stage right now. The crazy thing is as things stand now Colordao is a prime contender to play in the big 12 championship and sneak in the playoffs. Their offense last year in a 4-8 season put up 28 points a game....against a much harder schedule. If their Oline can be decent and their RB's stay healthy they become down right scary in the Big12.... where they play and defense is an afterthought.

Too long and don’t care enough to read. Congrats to Colorado making steady strides toward mediocrity. Just spent more time than the topic deserves.

Monster schedule, too. HAHAHA

Still 4-1, they can only play who is on their schedule...the last few guys had problems getting 2 wins....Ya'll act like they have played nothing but scrubs. UCF is better than Oklahoma and Baylor and Nebraska are better than NC State. Colorado State is about equal to NC State. N Dakota State is better than UTC and Kent State easily they are 4-1 and ranked number 2 in FCS... so.. ehhhh they have literally not played a 'bad' team. 3 of the teams they played have 1 loss and 2 of those losses came from Colorado. have you even looked at their schedule bro? Their current (games they have played) SoS is 42 ours is 72......lmfao. Thats out of 134 schools so i'd say that a decent schedule. If theirs is weak ours is garbage right?

I think people were waiting for a real win. This is the first one of substance. I’ll give him and Colorado their flowers for this one. They deserve it. For the first time they deserve it. That’s all anybody wanted from them. Everyone is/was tired of their bull$hit, talking a big game, the commercials and not delivering, kind of like Baker Mayfield first getting into the league w/ all of those commercials . Now they’ve earned a little respect bc they beat a good program with a good coach.

Gotcha. So basically your argument is grunts and clicks based on nothing? Jimmy Joe said Colorado sucks so they must mmmhmmm. Caz Jimmy Joe ain't ever wrong except ....oh yeah he's always wrong nvm..

TLDR people are arguing a team that's winning is actually terrible.. but they keep winning. So the people they play must be terrible.. but those teams are also mostly winning. Brains explode cant read anymore.

UCF is not better than Oklahoma. There is no overall metric that has UCF over Oklahoma. Sure UCF offense >> Oklahoma offense, but Oklahoma defense >>>>> UCF defense. Colorado's toughest game, at this point, will be Utah, and they get them at home. Utah is one spot ahead of Oklahoma, who we beat at their place; and is the third toughest game we will play.

they have played 2 bad teams, Baylor and CSU, Baylor is 0-3 in conference play, with two wins over a 1-3 Air Force and Tarleton State. Their coach is on the hot seat. CSU has beat Northern CO and 0-4 UTEP.

and 2 decent teams, Nebraska (loss) & UCF. NDSU probably leans more towards the decent. Nebraska just lost to the mighty Illini at home. and UCF's best win is a 1 point game over 2-2 TCU. NDSU only played one P5 game, but they are a team thats tough and CU beat them by 5, not exactly brag worthy. that's decent.

our schedule has been pretty garbage, I think that is one thing our fans have said consistently is that we haven't played anyone and don't really know what our team is capable of. but we aren't having to hype up the weak conference we are in. The SEC will sort itself out and the cream will rise to the top. In the current Big 12 its just a blender because there are no great teams, but someone has to win the games and will end up on top just out of default not because they are that good.

at this point single games are going to have an oversized effect on the toughness of the schedule just due to the small sample size. circle back on that SoS at the end of the season.

Agree with you and your thoughts on SoS our current SoS is worse than Colorados our remaining SoS is 6th in the nation. Theirs not so much. But my reply was to the poster saying they haven't played anyone.. My point is, comparably, neither have we. Arkansas will be the toughest team we have laid so far. At the very least the most complete team. NC State and Oklahoma both had good defenses and terrible offenses. Kent State and UTC were not in the same league. UTC is a good FCS team but we are FBS and P4 Kent State is probably the worst FBS team there is below a lot of FCS teams.

Our Defense destroys QB's. Of the 4 teams we played only UTCs QB is still standing. The rest have been replaced.

The one good thing about our schedule is it lets Our offense and defense to settle into their groove before showtime. We are ramping up. Trying to be cup half full guy here. I'm hoping this builds the confidence of the secondary getting live snaps.. I know everyone is down on Florida but I think Arkansas and Florida are going to be tougher tests than what we have seen so far. yes they are 2-2 but they lost to 2 decent ranked teams and stomped the 2 teams they should have. Similar Story with Arkansas they smacked down the 3 bad teams they played and lost close games to 2 ranked teams. Coming out of these 2 games unscathed will get us ready for whats next. We only have 3 gimmes left the rest of the teams on our schedule are all threats of varying levels. Kentucky is an enigma. Alabama and Georgia are good Arkansas and Florida are decent and hungry to prove something. Even Vandy is showing a weird level of fight. UTEP and Miss State are hot garbage.

I think this schedule works out well for this team that has a lot of young and new guys we are depending on. Nico is developing great. Our offensive line is gelling and getting more healthy and our secondary so far has been silently good. They wont get truly tested until Florida. Arkansas QB is not very good at the throwing part of quarterbacking. He is a poor mans Milton IMHO. Weaker arm and less arm talent but faster on his feet.
