Good move in my opinion

Meh. You could combine the remnants of the Pac 12 and Big 12 and you still wouldn't have a conference on par with the Big Ten or SEC.

I mean ... I guess you don't HAVE to win the conference to win the Natty....

This thread is bordering on obsession

Nowhere near their obsession with us.

Nowhere near their obsession with us. 

Especially since Deion did the old Bill McCartney obsession of not allowing red in the locker room.  I know NU plays CU early in the season, but why is Deion so worried about Nebraska?  They aren't in the same conference, and they probably never will be again.

Just a guess...they will get wrecked by TCU...

The shine wears off really fast with then lose 45-10...that second game, that home game vs NU needs to be something "special" so you hype it up with the "no red" bit.

CU has maybe 4 winnable games on their schedule.  If they start off 0-2, they will probably end up lucky to get 2 wins on the season.

Oh yeah, I know why Deion is putting the emphasis on NU, because they will likely get boat-raced by TCU, and it's the home opener for Deion in Boulder.  It's just silly.

He's not worried,  he's a smart marketer. He's getting the base riled up, giving the players and boosters a narrative and getting everyone hyped on it.
