    I believe the technical term is "turbo moron".
    I’ll admit I was wrong. Shadeur looked better than he ever did at JSU. Hiring the Kent state HC as OC may be the hire of the year.

    Still, Tcu isn’t good and that win will look a lot different when they’re 5-7. You’ll beat nebraska and csu too. Then shit gets real.

    Honestly your guys schedule is fucked. CU would be a lock to make a bowl if they played usc/Oregon later (losses no matter when you play them) and got Arizona/asu/furd early on. Instead, you’ll play those 3 winnable conference games when injuries start to kick your ass and you’ve got walk on caliber guys starting. And instead of wins they’ll be 50/50 games

    Helpful tip: instead of constantly showing everyone what an idiot you are, maybe just eat your crow and keep your shitty fantasies in your head.

    What do you think the phrase “I’ll admit I was wrong” means, fuckhead?

    You guys looked way better than I thought. I was saying you should easily make a bowl, but the schedule makers fucked you and it’s going to be close because of that.

    Less of your fantasies, more wiping of your mouth. Ask your caregiver for help with that.

    TCU and Colorado are simply two mediocre teams with inept defenses.

    TCU frittered away about 20 points through its offense's incompetence when presented opportunities.

    If I had to bet, after this weekend's meeting of mediocre teams in Boulder, the Buffs will be 1-1.

    That is a hot take since Nebraska looked like shit vs MN. I like prime in this one.
    Nebraska did look like shit on offense.

    But playing Colorado is a feel good day for any offense, and Nebraska looks like it can play serviceable defense.

    Neither team is particularly good. I'd bet on the one with a defense.

    If TCU had layed 60 on Colorado as it should have, we wouldn't be saying TCU was a very good team, but we'd be calling Colorado a dumpster fire.

    I think Minnesota had a shitty qb, really shitty OL and RB, with a decent wr. I don't think Nebraska is ready to face actual playmakers. But that's why early season polls are ridiculous. Nobody knows anything until about game 4 or 5.

    Please come back when the Buffs fail to Crack a 50% win ratio on the season. Something tells me you will be "Poof".

    Prime has been and looks to be good for y’all.

    I think "poof" implies he's been banned or censored, no?

    As good as the rest of your analysis and takes.

    I obviously overrated Nebraska when I called them mediocre. And CU gets to play another inept offense this week. Hit the hype machine, Gloria.

    I heard CO would win 3 games this year MAX. 5 was out of reach. Care to take that line or did you want to back peddle further?

    I doubt I ever said that.

    And 3 - 0 after CSU is more than likely. 'Cuz CSU. And they get to play both Arizona schools this year.

    Less than 5 -7 seems like an abject failure.

    I feel like the goal posts are being moved for Coach Prime. We are talking about a team that was Cal-too-high away from Owen last season, and not a single loss was even close, or close to being close. I've been told it's impossible to compete in P5 first year after a thorough roster ass cleaning. Now we're saying anything less than 5-7 is an abject failure? Well, it would represent a 4 to 6 win improvement over last year, despite said roster turnover.

    I don't get it. The guy has turned out to be a semi-serious coach with ambition to get his team to be better. Nobody doubts that when they run into SC, UW and UO that they're going to get their asses kicked at least two out of those three, and lose the other one. But you have to give him a fair standard to beat and not move it around every week he wins.
    Moar Fudd doog "it's just hype" as though program branding and hype isn't hugely impactful to college football success. Especially in the transfer portal era.

    Sizzle sells. It might not be the only aspect to success but it's certainly AN aspect.

    Surprising they beat TCU. Fortunate to win, but a win is a win. Good for them. But TCU is no better than mediocre.

    Nebraska is terrible--can't execute a snap or a handoff without giving the ball to the opposition. At this rate, they might win 3 this year, assuming they beat their 2 remaining non-Power 5 foes.

    Colorado State looked pretty awful.

    Personally, I never claimed it's impossible to bring in a whole new team and win. It happens in the NFL from time to time. In an era of unlimited free agency, it'll happen in college too.

    So he'd be a genius at 5-7?

    Not a genius but his OC is a good coach and he gets his guys ready to go. Beating TCU was a win I didn’t think he’d get. Nebraska was always a toss up and CSU is bad. He will be 3-0 after next week but the P12 is tough this year. His team is thin on players. If they stay healthy 6-6 seems on the table. That would be pretty amazing. That defense is bad and thin. I imagine they’ll get worse, not better as the year goes on. The offensive line isn’t great and I’d think his son will take a pounding. 3-9 was my original thought but I’ll think anywhere from 4-8 - 7-5 is on the table depending on injuries.
