I'd say CU's comeback last night and then winning in double OT after losing their best player to a cheap shot was the definition of responding to adversity.

Lol. Your username is out of order. It should be eXHusker.

Can’t freaking wait for it to end following back to back Ls and the meltdown that will ensue when the facade is exposed.

I’m a Huskers fan, donor, and longtime season tix holder.

 

Additionally, I possess enough integrity to be able to compliment other coaches/players/teams that may not be popular with our fanbase. Talent coupled with a winning mindset is a beautiful thing to witness, wherever one may find it (IMHO).

So if Colorado loses to top 10 teams two weeks in a row after winning 1 game last season some sort of facade is exposed?

To some degree, yes. The facade of being a magical unbeatable force will be gone. “We coming” loses its sting after a few losses. 
 

Also, the media won’t be sucking D when they are 3-2 and fall out of the rankings. 
 

Yeah, i’m ready for that.

I'll definitely be interested to see how their players react to losing. If they are coached well they will respond well. Time will tell.

It happens to the best of teams. What you do when the unexpected occurs and your back’s up against the wall, reveals character and mettle. 

Ok so do you think they will be able to do the same next week against the best team, by far, they have played all season? They have been exposed in the trenches 3 games straight. They are not there yet in that area. Maybe Shedeur  can will them to a win. He is elite for sure but that only gets you so far if you don't have time to throw the football.

Good on ya. I appreciate that. 
 

Colorado is just the one school I just can’t with.

I actually think Sanders and his team will act like babies when they lose.  They aren't handling winning with dignity, so no reason to think they will handle losing with it.

I'm not sure what is more impressive.  That CU has 200% more wins this year than last in 25% of the total games played or the CU Game Preview thread is still alive with some slandering the current, and prospective, states of their program.

 

At least send them a bill for the headspace rent.

Well, to be fair…it’s shoved down our throat on every network’s commentary. Rents been paid.

Both teams played rough and a little dirty at times. It was a great game to watch.

All the more reason why the refs didn’t need to tip the scales in any direction.

Don't freaking watch it then dude.  Seems pretty simple, find something else to do.

Turning down the volume is an option. It can be "a bit much".
