Friday Night Games Sickos Thread

Three games to choose from:

  1. (ESPN) Tulane at Memphis - I've only seen commercials so far...
  2. (CBS Sports Network) Fresno St at Utah St - (NT)FSU used to be ranked, until Wyoming got them last week.  Utah St is 3-3...
  3. (ESPN2) Georgia high school football!!!  #6 Buford at Mill Creek - both teams are 6-0 and its currently tied at 10.  Buford has Michigan commit Montez Walker.

(Meta: Is it me, or is the board super duper slow tonight?)

Watching Stanford/Colorado, it's jarring how much Colorado is driven by a couple of incredibly good players. Sanders and Hunter do not belong on the same field as the Stanford defense. It reminds me of some of the games I played in high school where we were just so overmatched against bigger schools, it was laughable.

Up front, it feels like these two teams are comparable. But just no answer for Colorado's passing game which is all about skill position dominance.

I guess I haven't watched a Stanford game in a long time. They are fucking terrible.

They should have asked to join the IVY league instead of the ACC. They are either unwilling or unable to compete in modern FBS

I loved Deion as a player. I love Deion as a coach. His kids play hard for him. They seem to be well coached.

The fact that this team won exactly one game last year and this year have been in the spotlight is cool. 

I'm on the Buffs bandwagon

Sanders the QB is no question a talented player, however he can not diagnose complex blitz packages…

Good coaches can take advantage of Colorado, just have to have some skill players. You can out scheme Prime pretty easily.

I think Deion is ready to murder his DC.  Now...I've no clue what is truly happening and if this is player issues (the defense sucks in general) or if truly some coaching and communication problems.  But he looks like he may call upon Diablo by night's end.

Colorado seems like they went on a bender in the first half, it wore off at halftime, they're passed out in an alley behind a dumpster in the 3rd quarter, and someone just woke them up and told them the cops are now looking for them in the 4th quarter. What the fuck is this game

Hunter fails to make a tackle after looking real weak in run defense and not playing great coverage.... almost seems like you shouldn't play guys on every snap in a football game. Especially coming off an injury. 

He's a great player. Not being put in the best situations.
