  1. Great take. Why did Texas move up after a struggle with WYO? And how great was the TX win at Bama; a team with an impotent offense? I will not be surprised if Ole Miss wins at Bama this Saturday. I will not be surprised if Oklahoma and at least 1 other B12 team defeats this Texas team. And is FSU really a playoff team? Saturday at Clemson will be interesting. To date, Duke has looked as solid as any team in the ACC. And (Say It Ain't So!) Miami also looks darn good. 2 SEC teams in the final Final 4, right? So far, one SEC team is debatable. A lot of top 25 vs top 25 matchups this week. Including 3 in the Pac-12. 6 Pac-12 Top 25 teams going head-to-head. Who knew?
  2. This poll should be called The SID Poll.
  3. 12:30 Pacific on ABC. OSU at WSU - 4 PM Pacific on Fox. UCLA at Utah - 12:30 Pacific on Fox.
  4. Afraid? No. But I respect any team ranked in the top 25; especially, an undefeated team that can make the comeback it did last night down one of the best players in CFB. If you disrespect any opponent they can defeat you. And CU has one of the best pass games in CFB and a terrific OC.
  5. Oregon's Dan Lanning May Have Already Made Things 'Personal' With Deion Sanders, Colorado Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes thrive on bulletin board material. Luckily for them, Oregon head coach Dan Lanning gave them plenty of it during the offseason. Lanning, who is in his second year as the Oregon head coach, was asked about Colorado's move to the Big 12 during the Ducks' media day ahead of fall camp. He took a major shot at the school's football program during his answer. "Not a big reaction. I'm trying to remember what they won to affect this conference and I don't remember," Lanning told reporters who asked for his thoughts on the move. "Do you remember them winning anything? I don't remember them winning anything." To access article, click here.
  6. SCOREBOARD - Last 7 games - OREGON 5 - USC 2. Playoff appearances - Ducks 1 - Trojans ZIP.
  7. Thanks for the post. I respectfully disagree. The play was over and the hit was well after the fact.
  8. Dropped one spot from 18 to 19. How about Bama being ranked behind the Ducks!
  9. If anyone in CFB wants to stay in college coaching and they have the opportunity, they are off to the Power 2.
  10. Good take. On the other hand when coaching, Deion is an old-school coach. Including CU football finishing with the highest GPA in CU history last semester.
  11. Gosh (so not edited) bless them Mic. Tragic.
  12. 2024 - Some B1G Playoff Voodoo Using Week 3 AP Poll and 5 Champs - 7 At Large Playoff format. Field - 6 B1G (!) / 2 SEC/ 1 ACC/ 1 B12/ 1 Ind./ 1 Mountain West (MW.) 1. Georgia - SEC vs. 9. Washington (AL - B1G) at 8. Penn State (AL - B1G) 2. Michigan - B1G vs. 10. Notre Dame (AL -Independent) at 7. Ohio State (AL - B1G) 3. FSU - ACC vs. 11. OREGON (AL - B1G) at 6. USC (AL - B1G) 4. Utah - B12 vs. 12 Oregon State - MW at 5. Texas (AL - SEC) In 2024, the new B1G, 4 teams in the Week 3 AP Top 25, would have 8 teams ranked with the addition of 6 SC/ 8 UW/ 10 OREGON/ 23 UCLA. The new SEC would also have 8 ranked teams with the addition of 3. Texas, and 16. Oklahoma. The 'Mountain West' would have 2 teams ranked with 1 in the Playoff field. OSU + WSU Please: Stop litigating, negotiate, and accept the truth and the Playoff dinero. Look at the above. OREGON and UW were wrong not to hang around? Leaving was immoral and amoral? Right? Right.
  13. HUH? No comprende. Of course, Hunter plays for the Buffs. Where did I indicate otherwise? The last CSU penalty, in OT, had nothing to do with Hunter who at the time was in the hospital.
  14. Going to Hawaii makes recruiting sense. Going to Boise, Idaho, and Logan, Utah? Want to go to Texas? Fine. But play Rice or UTEP or Texas State and not a B12 team you will help with its media rankings and recruiting.
  15. I'll take the Aloha game, Hello Hawaii, and Goodbye, any day over struggling to put away teams like, was Mario stoned for Stony Brook? Hawaii provided the perfect get-well opponent before the start of conference play. Heavyweight on heavyweight only will not happen before the Premier League comes about. BTW, depending on how the 2024 schedule breaks and looking at the B1G to date, Oregon will likely have an easier row to hoe in the B1G in 2024 compared to the Pac-12 gauntlet in 2023. But don't sell 3-0 Rutgers short!
  16. When you have a passing game like CU's, even without Hunter, you have a puncher's chance.
  17. Broadcast time, one correction from above. Oregon State at Washington State - 7 PM FOX UCLA at Utah - 3:30 - FOX - This game and not the OR ST/WA ST game will be going up against OREGON/CU along with Ole Miss at Alabama on CBS. The Ducks game leads into the ABC broadcast of Texas at Baylor at 7:30. The Ohio State at Notre Dame game will be broadcast on NBC at 7:30.
  18. The Conference of Quarterbacks is not going away without a fight. The Pac-12 after Week 3 is 29-6 with USC idle this week. Game of the Week - 3-0 Colorado 43 - Colorado State 35 - 2 OT CSU had the Buffs in the Coffin (Corner) but forgot about putting the stake in Ralphie's heart. 1:21 minutes later, Shedeur Sanders, absent his playmate Travis Hunter (Cheap Shot!,) took CU 98 yards for the tying TD and 2-point conversion in front of a raucous Folsom Field crowd. In the 2nd OT, CSU committed the 17th of 17 penalties on the night, 187 yards lost, and the hat and sunglasses had a season-opening hat trick. You Cannot Make This Stuff Up! Game of Next Week - 3-0 OREGON 55 - Hawaii 10 - This is how you take down an undermanned opponent. Go Hawaii 5-0 twice. Danno booked 'em. As to this coming Saturday, I leave it up to true journalist The Athletis's Stewart Mandel. "It felt like the hype surrounding Deion Sanders ratcheted up 10-fold during the week. So I can't even imagine what this week will be like leading up to CU's conference opener at (Week 2 ranked) #13 OREGON. And the more the hype grows, the more Deion's cynics will be looking for any confirmation that his team is overrated, which it may well be. All I know is, Shedeur Sanders is a legitimate first-round NFL Draft pick with some big-time receivers, and I could not be more pumped to watch him and fellow draft prospect Bo Nix go head-to-head." AMEN, Brother Stewart, AMEN! Saturday, September 23, 2023 - 12:30 Pacific, ABC. The Pac-2 Conference Champ Game of the Week. 3-0 Oregon State 26 - SDS 9 at 3-0 Washington State 64 - No. Colorado 21. Larry has respectfully and graciously come out of a well-deserved retirement to pinch-hit as the Pac-2 Conference Commissioner for this game. It was Larry's belief that no one was having any fun in Las Vegas, so Larry decided to move the Pac-2 Conference Champ game to beautiful downtown Pullman. At the end of the game, Larry will be handing out the coveted Left Behind Except for the Lawyers Trophy Saturday, September 23, 2023 - 12:30 Pacific FS1. (Larry used all of his clout to keep this game off of his network.) Over/Under on more viewers for Ducks/Buffs vs. Beavers/Cougars is about 7 million viewers or so. Never Quit! Keep those billable hours coming! 2-1 Arizona 31 - UTEP 14. Snore. 1-2 ASU 0 - Fresno State 29 - Dilly, your 0 needs a wake-up call. Especially with Caleb and friends coming for a visit. 2-1 Cal 31 - Idaho 17 - The FCS 10th-ranked Vandals could not steal the Bear's handle. leaving the job up to the SS Hornets. 1-2 Stanford 23 - Sac-of-Suds- (Hello, Cousin Vinny) State Hornets 30 - Virginia welcomes you to the ACC. 3-0 UCLA 59 - NCC 7 - Hey Chip, pick on someone your own size! Get ready to step it up next Saturday in Whit-burg. 3-0 Utah 31 - Weber State Grills 7 - Will there be a Rising? 3-0 Washington 41 - Michigan State 7 - I'm not certain what type of harassment Mike Penix, Jr. visited on Sparty but I do know harassment when I see it. Next on the firing line, the ACC Cal Bears. Get your popcorn ready for a Prime Time visit. A final thought from Stewart - "Maybe CU will pull off another stunner. Maybe the Buffs will lose by four TDs. The only certainty is that everyone will be watching." 😍
  19. What an uncalled-for cheap shot. One of 17 penalties against the gutty but undisciplined Rams that cost CSU 187 lost yards and the football game. The last one was a stupid blindside block that cost CSU an OT TD. The Buffs mascot is named Chip. The game was more than chippy.
  20. They put the Buffs into the Coffin (Corner) but forgot to put the stake in Ralphie's heart. I would have rather seen Prime tripping to Eugene with a blowout win and not on this kind of Rocky Mountain high.
  21. That may have been the best Gameday ever. 1st time in Boulder since 1996. Great interview with Prime. The Rock was great. Lee Corso's 400th hat dance. A 2025 Duck 'commit' is in Boulder today. I hope he doesn't flip.
  22. Log, great thoughts. However, I think Deion knows full well that he is a target and so is his team.
  23. Mic, great points. In addition to winning on the field Oregon with the help of NIKE had a marketing plan to win off the field including the then-unique uniform changes. And Chip Kelly with a then avant-garde, hurry-up no huddle offense took the country by storm. He certainly got Saint Nick's attention down in Tuscaloosa. But Deion? The man is a media magnet all on his own. He personally has increased the Buffs 'market cap' by 100%.
  24. Oregon - 60 - Hawaii 17 - Book 'Em Danno! 3 TO 5 Sacks 250 yards rushing
