Perhaps I went too far with that "team of destiny" hyperbole. But a team which recently went 2-25 in the PAC 12 over several years and is now poised (with a few minor breaks in tomorrow's game) to at least win the PAC 12 and go to the Rose Bowl has a certain, shall we say, [cue French accent] je ne sais quoi, oui?CuntWaffle said:
Team of Destiny? Good Christ!Ringer said:On paper, the Huskies should win this one. Speaking as a Buffs fan, the worst disparity between the teams is in the WA kick and punt return talent vs. the CO kick and punt teams. That being said, these Buffs have some talent, a ton of heart, lots of experience, great coaching, and sort of a "team of destiny" vibe. This will be a great game.

CU is going to come out and try to be TUFF. If you watched CU/FUCLA game with the 75 personal foul penalties you know what I mean. I'm sure they will all be wearing their "Toughest Team Wins" tees.
Hopefully WE will be smart enuf to not fall for that shit and hopefully Smiff learned something from the U$C game.
So glad I paid full boat for my tickets now that they are giving them away. -
Cu does gamble a bit on defense, I would like to see 4-5 screen plays on 3rd and long to Gaskin.
Also I'd like to see 3-4 funny trick plays - they will all work on cu, as cu does over-pursue. -

WA has a shitty kicker and punter. If Buffs are worse, we win by 50.Ringer said:On paper, the Huskies should win this one.

UCLA was the only team this season that got the Buffs off of their game. Buffs had like 4 penalties for saying things, which was bizarre and is not their style. Still beat FUCLA , but that was one ugly win. They'll take it, though.Dugdawg said:CU is going to come out and try to be TUFF.

The more I think about it though, I just don't see how Sefo moves the ball on UW's defense ... that's the crux of this game. The Colorado defense will be have their moments ... but I'd be shocked if UW wasn't able to put up 24+ offensively. -
The key to this game will be the linebacking play. Expect Washington to force Colorado to run between the tackles. Wooching and the Potatos will favor contain over pass rush. When Colorados is on offense think a more physical but a step slower Arizona. If our boys can force three and outs we have a better chance to win the game. Say 28-17?
