Adjusting the gold chains of his players after a good play.
Quiet class is dead, long live the. “Look at me” generation.
I’m killing myself.
I will rest in eternity in the classy arms of Vince Lombardi and Bart Starr.

I thought I was the only one watching this game.
I'm assuming CoPackFan is...
I have no life.
That was a terrible throw. Colorado State is somehow ahead with more penalties than the old school Raiders and three turnovers.
Dumbass receiver never cut upfield for a first down. Colorado State really doesn't seem to want to win this.
It's 1am and now overtime. I don't think I care enough to stay up any longer.

his entire life. He's talked the talk and he's walked the walk. I think it's fantastic!
....and that's Coach Prime to you Blair Kiel😉
Having class isn’t as hard as he makes it seem.
Oregon up 35-0 at the half over Colorado today and it doesn't even seem that close. Oregon has 378 yards and Colorado has 21.
I think a lot of the actual good teams were sick of all the Deion lovefest going on. The Oregon coach said they weren't satisfied yet on the way to the locker room at halftime.
Oregon ran a fake punt from their own 17.
It wouldn't be surprising to see this end up at about 63-0. Oregon's reserves are probably a lot better than Colorado's reserves when it comes to garbage time.
USC will boat race them next week so they'll probably lose the two games by 80-100+ points combined.
Colorado needed to make the Sanders move to shake up their horrible program, but when the coach sucks the air out of the room every week, it’s not about the team.

ESPN and the rest of the media loves it and it could potentially give them a huge recruiting advantage, especially in the age of NIL money.
Getting completely obliterated two games in a row should shut things up in a hurry.
Read somewhere that CO took in close to $100mm from their first 3 games.
Even if Colorado doesn’t win another game this year it’s already a wildly successful year.
That being said, it’s clear to me that Colorado has some holes on that roster. The OL and DL are average at best and against good QBs they will be able to make plays on the CU defense.
Their 3-0 start has more to do with the weak competition they’ve player than anything else. Two of those three games were close and Nebraska is just awful other than their DL.
Oregon can match their speed and athleticism and Bo Nix is a legit QB. The score shouldn’t be a big surprise.
Deion’s problem is that his personality has taken them from being an underdog to being the hunted in 4 weeks. Again, brilliant move as a hire, but they’re circled on everyone’s schedule.
No question - but Colorado will gladly take in all the attention he draws in. And I think he will be able to reel in some pretty decent recruits.
The problem is if you are Colorado does anyone think he will be there in 3-4 years? I don’t. A school like Texas A&M will come calling eventually and he will bail.
If Colorado beats the unranked teams like ASU and AZ and Stanford and loses to the rest of their ranked opponents they would be 6-6. Spring an upset and it’s 7-5. That’s a really good year for a Colorado program that’s been garbage for 20+ years.
And they will a pretty high profile bowl based on....well....Deion.

Maybe they can play Wisconsin in the Dukes Mayo, Garden State, Bluebonnet, or some other minor bowl. It might be the only way anyone other than Badgers fans and the opposing team watches their bowl game (if both teams get to 6 wins).
Unfortunately, this Colorado team would probably boat race Wisconsin given our mediocre DBs and poor tackling.
I believe a post on this thread was deleted because I didn't express my love for dumbass Deon. The bullshit hype on red very sports site known to man is beyond what anyone should have to listen to.
Agree .... his quote after the loss yesterday "You better get me right now" . Hard to preach "team" to players when you preach "individual" to the media.

It wasn't me who deleted it. Maybe someone can explain?
Many times I have composed things like, “Bong, I’m gonna reach down your throat and rip your heart out, and while I’m at it, several other vital organs.”….but then I forget to hit send. Might that have happened?
I saw the presser too. Better get me now? Uh, don’t worry Prime. U$C and Caleb Williams are on the schedule next week.

They definitely put up enough points to win. In past years, Alvarez/Bielema/Chryst would have just lined up and run the ball for about 400 years against that awful DL that Colorado has and win by something like 45-35. Unless they fumbled, most Badgers since 1993 pummeled even good teams that couldn't stop the run. If the other team stopped the run because they had NFL caliber front 7s, the Badgers were cooked. The Badgers floor most years was 7 to 8 wins and a mid-tier bowl, but they were never going to beat OSU, Penn State, Michigan, or USC in the future with that approach.
The transition in progress to a more wide-open attack and less "run a guy 25 times for 250 yards" makes upsets against teams like Colorado much more likely. However, it's probably necessary in the NIL era. Not many 4- and 5-star guys are going to get paid big money to come to Madison and win the old-fashioned way. If they want to play with the big boys (SEC, OSU, Michigan, Penn State, USC) they need to change the way they do things. Their floor went down and their ceiling went up, we'll just have to see which one (11-12 win ceilings or 4-5 win floors) ends up being true.
Seems some folks are joining forces.

If I were Lanning, I'd deny this report.
Buffs were +22.5 point underdogs to USC. They covered.
48-41 USC
Deion Sanders: "If you can't see what's coming with CU football, you've lost your mind. Or you're just a flat out hater. If you can't see what's going on, what's going to transpire over the next several months, something's wrong with you."

USC QB had 400 yards passing and 6 tds. Neon??? Pass defense???
Oregon didn't do jack shit against them in 2nd half last week.....
They really missed Hunter last week as you can see what a difference maker he is by watching the game today vs. USC.
Prime says he needs 6 or 8 more dawgs to really compete, my guess he will get more than that. Good or bad CU/Prime has upped the interest greatly here in Colorado and nationwide. I’ve lived here for 25 years and have had very, very few conversations about the Buffs. Now it is common.
Oh yes.....the recruits are coming. Top 25 next year for sure.
The following year?? 2025 😯 Lookout!!
Nice win for the Buffs tonight. ASU tied the game and Buffs got a FG late to win it.
4-2 for Coach Prime & the Buffaloes
Blew a 29-0 halftime lead at home last night against a 1 win Stanford team. Lost 46-43 in double OT. Prime time wasn’t kind to Prime.
I watched.... LOLOLOL - Didn't think it was possible to blow that lead. Unreal
Big talkers need to back up their bravado every time. That’s tough to do. 17 penalties.
Truth.....however I've seen Neon Deion back it up more often than not.
That loss last night is a bad bad loss though.
