Husker_x Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 It is kind of one of those bedrock truths, though, that you can always trust to be there. Classless, winless, and in some cases severely disturbed, CU is a blotch on the conference and the sport. Quote Link to comment

cscott2win Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Some quotes out of Boulder from the same writer  Before--- The reality is that it`s hard to find a place on the field where the Rams have any kind of clear edge  The biggest reason, of course, is that the Buffs are more talented across the board. Hawkins has had four years to recruit his players and build his program. While there are still holes to fill -- and plenty of rough spots ahead, particularly in the Big 12 -- this is the first time in his tenure that CU fans can say the Buffs` talent level is at least comparable to that of Barnett`s last couple of squads.  And, here`s a guess: before the night is over, CU`s defense will make a name for itself as the foundation for this year`s team.  After---  An anemic running game, despite the presence of a highly touted offensive line and a stable of equally highly touted running backs. There’s no excuse. CU finished with 29 yards rushing; that’s barely a fourth of what a halftime streaker managed against CSU’s band.  A defense prone to giving up big plays. Three different CSU receivers had catches of 43 yards or more. Running back Leonard Mason ripped off a 44-yard run and wide receiver Dion Morton had a 26-yard gallop. That means that more than 57 percent of CSU’s offense (376 yards) came on five of its 62 total plays  And a quote from the head Hawk---  "I thought (Cody) played well down the stretch and made some nice throws," Dan Hawkins said. "The thing that hurt us was trying to find a rhythm in the first half." Quote Link to comment

NoDoubt Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I agree, CU does suck. Â Side note...I think if I had to rank my ten most "disliked" teams in it would go something like this... Â 10) Miami - Probably hanging on to the past here a bit... 9) Tennessee - Rapidly moving up on my list after the hiring of Kiffin. 8) USC - All c*ck and no balls. 7) Florida - As great of a man as Tebow is...I still puke in my mouth a little whenever I hear him talk. 6) Colorado - Not too high on the list because no matter how obnoxious they are...they always play us hard. 5) Kansas State - Utterly classless program. 4) Iowa - I grew up on the Nebraska side of Sioux City, enough said. 3) Notre Dame - Seeing them suck year in and year out is so stressful:) 2) Mizzou - .005 points away from being #1 1) Oklahoma - I have a lot of respect for our old rival...Not.

Blackshirtsguru Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 It's always fun to watch CU fans become self destructive......Their coach is a complete boob and it showed on national tv last night...Fairchild out coached Hawkins in ever aspect of the game. The CSU fans gave Buff fans a super kick in the sack when they stormed Folsom field and tore down the goal posts. GOD that was funny to watch! Quote Link to comment
CornSyrup Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 And a quote from the head Hawk--- Â "I thought (Cody) played well down the stretch and made some nice throws," Dan Hawkins said. "The thing that hurt us was we're Colorado." Â There you go, coach. Fixed 'er right up fer ya. Quote Link to comment
BeachBuffs Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I've actually calmed down somewhat since last night and life goes on, we have a short week and I am eager to see what gets fixxed before then. Go Buffs!!!!! Quote Link to comment
brotherofalatehusker Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I've actually calmed down somewhat since last night and life goes on, we have a short week and I am eager to see what gets fixxed before then. Go Buffs!!!!! Â From the sounds of things at the netbuffs site Hawkins might get lynched before that game gets here. WHOA!! There are some hot folks over there. Nothing like that has ever happened HERE before though... Quote Link to comment

huskers1 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I was saying about two weeks ago I have no idea why people are so high on CU. Hawkins simply is below average, they have no skill players on the outside. Their TE's are serviceable but they aren't gamebreakers. Their offensive line was really banged up last year so it was hard to get a guage on how they were going to be this year, it possibly turned out to be worse this year. Scott didn't impress me last year and did nothing to change that yesterday. Stewart is an OK runner but he's like 160 lbs so he isn't going to hold up too well. They lost their best defensive lineman in Hypolite and they really don't have any stars in the secondary. Rippy impressed me with his speed and aggressiveness but other than that they were almost exactly what I thought they would be. Maybe a little worse actually. Quote Link to comment
