USC scores yet again.
USC 34 - CU 7.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:34 PM ^
Colorado these last couple weeks has been a really good demonstration of the distinction between a blue chip program and a group of blue chip recruits. Of course, their bluest chip has also been out, to be fair.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:34 PM ^
Brenden Rice, former Michigan target :(
September 30th, 2023 at 1:36 PM ^
We target a ton of top end talent. Every Saturday's going to be full of former targets doing great things on football fields.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:35 PM ^
Rod Moore and Hinton listed as questionable today. Stokes, Graham, McBurrows out. Much shorter list this week.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:35 PM ^
Holy shit, none of the Colorado players know how to tackle. Who the hell is coaching them?
That defense is not just bad, but fundamentally unsound.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:37 PM ^
Do you believe now?
I just watched the clip of that press conference for the first time, I didn't realize how pompous Deion really is until now
September 30th, 2023 at 1:35 PM ^
Florida finally got off the snide.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:44 PM ^
Don't want to sound snide, but it's off the schneid.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:27 PM ^
It's all German to me:) I think.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:43 PM ^
Nice job USC D. The reason why you will not win when playing teams with tough D.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:44 PM ^
Notice how PSU-NU was at halftime ten minutes earlier than either Kentucky or USC
September 30th, 2023 at 1:45 PM ^
Minnesota getting shredded by the run and the pass against ... Louisiana Lafayette. I don't think we'll have much to worry about in that night game.

Plus, Northwestern somehow put up 37 on them.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:46 PM ^
Holy shit. I just finished some yard work, showered, and started watching games. What the hell is going on in the PSU-NW game? 10-10?
September 30th, 2023 at 1:47 PM ^
PSU offense looks like shit. PSU defense is dominant
September 30th, 2023 at 1:52 PM ^
Their D didn't look so hot on NU's TD drive.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:54 PM ^
One drive, yes.
57 yards total in the half is dominant
September 30th, 2023 at 1:56 PM ^
They are also playing a very, very bad offense. For said very bad offense to drive for a TD is not to their credit.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:49 PM ^
Lots of people in here crapping on Colorado/Prime. He's great for the sport of college football. Year 1, I expect he'll have the Buffs turned into a contender sooner than later. Especially once they're in the Big12.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:53 PM ^
I, myself, grew up watching Deion and had posters on my wall of him. I’m overly tired of hearing about him and Colorado. If they would’ve just toned it down some, not as many people would be as harsh on them. The media overkill has turned a lot of people bitter towards that program.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:01 PM ^
I don't have anything against Colorado or Deion, but they have a lot of work to do to compete. Once he doesn't have his son at QB, he isn't left with much. His recruiting class is currently 74th. Maybe he cleans up in the transfer portal, but still -- it's pretty bleak. Without program continuity, he'll need to land elite QBs to give them a chance IMO.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:13 PM ^
Yeah well said. I’m not really rooting against him/them, but there is a lot more to being a good football team other than getting good recruits. See Texas A&M
He makes the game little more fun, but the blue bloods will always be at that top, most times, and I’m sure he will have good teams occasionally but media needs to cool it. They aren’t doing them any favors , each team is going to give them all they got to shut up the narrative. Tough spot to be in.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:04 PM ^
I mean they managed to get ranked after 1 close win, so yeah they'll probably make it the playoffs if they can pull out 10 wins in the B12. That shouldn't even be difficult when the best teams you'll be playing are Utah, BYU, Cincy and Kansas (assuming their coach doesn't leave).
September 30th, 2023 at 2:15 PM ^
All good responses, backed up by your stats, etc. I guess it's just the piling on by others that seems excessive. But it's a message board, so I digress.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:16 PM ^
Deion sanders is coaching Colorado?
September 30th, 2023 at 1:54 PM ^
Drew Allar is on the run and fighting for his life almost every drop back. There's no way he makes it to Michigan healthy
September 30th, 2023 at 2:01 PM ^
I believe they lost a guard today.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:55 PM ^
Guys making fun of Urban's sad pizza eater meme at half time show is golden

NW tied with PSU @ 10-10, and has a net of 60 total yds of offense and we're into the 3 rd quarter.
that's unpossible.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:19 PM ^
Imbelieivable.
September 30th, 2023 at 1:59 PM ^
That 1 yard was a struggle for PSU.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:00 PM ^
Uhhh Penn State?! Reality check to the freakin face
September 30th, 2023 at 2:01 PM ^
PSU needed 4 tries to move a yard. Lol.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:03 PM ^
To get three yards.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:04 PM ^
To be fair to PSU, it was 3 yards, but it was against the 112th rush defense.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:02 PM ^
Florida D is awwwwful
September 30th, 2023 at 2:05 PM ^
Notre Dame owned by a kid, brilliant
September 30th, 2023 at 2:05 PM ^
Northwestern is really bad at American football.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:06 PM ^
That's the second 3rd and 15+ that the 'Cats have converted on PSU.
EDIT: the Nits are saved by replay.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:08 PM ^
Reviews of spots are stupid and almost never done correctly
September 30th, 2023 at 2:08 PM ^
The marker was prior to the 32, NW got hosed. Even looked like he crossed it with forward momentum on the sneak
September 30th, 2023 at 2:10 PM ^
Was a terrible job by the QB. He was short and gave himself up way too early with a super awkward dive.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:09 PM ^
SC’s defense is terrible.
September 30th, 2023 at 2:11 PM ^
Penn State is like the worst good team in the country. They just don't pass the eye test at all
September 30th, 2023 at 2:11 PM ^
Can’t wait to see them replace Florida with UK in the polls, SEC keeps 7 in top25
September 30th, 2023 at 2:13 PM ^
Penn St gets the ball on the Nw 32 and settles for a fg
