Michigan's may be the only fanbase outside the old Big 12 that doesn't need to be reminded Colorado was once a powerhouse. There's no need to rehash the reason why. For the purposes of this post, all you need to know is that Michigan was looking to avenge a loss from 1994. If you need further details, the internet will provide them; don't say I didn't warn you, though.
there's also a full game broadcast, which I used for this post
ABC has the broadcast. Keith Jackson is on the call. He welcomes us to Boulder.
“If you’re gonna sell tickets you’ve gotta give them something to watch. Well, coming up is something to watch.”
We certainly get a sight to behold. Michigan's staff could not be wearing outfits that better pinpoint the era:
Magnificent.
Both head coaches are in their second seasons. While Lloyd Carr has been around the block several times as a Michigan assistant, 35-year-old Rick Neuheisel is a fast-rising star who'd spent one season as the offensive coordinator in Boulder before taking over for Bill McCartney—a Bo Schembechler assistant himself.
As for the football itself: buckle up, this is going to be a wild ride.

The Responses:
Brian: nope nope nope!
Seth: Got a better one?
Brian: this is me participating
Seth: Oh.
Ace: This Week’s Obsession Reveals Intra-Office Dynamics
Seth: That's every TWO
Ace: True.
We should probably just get the Shawn Crable incident out of the way. After thinking for a moment, I’m actually terrified at how much competition that has for this top three.
Adam: JT Barrett and a certain spot come to mind as well. There's solid competition even if this was limited to solely The Game.
hooray.
Brian: /giphy nope octopus
Okay. Points for obscurity. No Crable, no spot, no Horror, no 2-point conversion. Weird little things.
