One thing you can't say is that was a boring game.

Side note: I love we're doing game threads on Lemmy!

[–] TORFdot0@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Man I’m sure glad I deleted my Reddit account so no one can dig up all my anti-coach prime comments on there

Fantastic game. As a Jayhawk, I’m looking forward to Colorado coming home to the Big 12.

[–] nurple@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I hate that I want the buffs to win this

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Ok, this Colorado team isn't just hype. That was a great opening drive.

[–] wjrii@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

The CU defense held up longer than I thought, but they seem to be roughly who we expected. The CU offense is coming together much quicker than I thought, I'll admit it.

[–] Andjhostet@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

TCU will finish in the bottom half of the Big XII this year.

[–] TORFdot0@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Either Colorado hit a Homerun with Prime or TCU is in trouble

Well... CU marches the whole length of the field to draw first blood. Did not expect that.

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

WOW! Interception in the endzone. The Buffs are for real!

[–] Andjhostet@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

CUs offense is really impressive. If they go up by two scores right off the bat that could be huge.

[–] TORFdot0@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

The offense in this game is like a heavyweight bout. Can’t believe that Prime is already got the buffs rolling on offense. Sean Lewis was a really good hire and I thought he’d be a P5 head coach by now.

[–] 1hitsong@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] TheAndrewBrown@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I can’t believe how well he’s still playing after over 100 snaps. Will be interesting to see if he can keep it up the whole season without being injured

[–] wjrii@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Still better tackling than USC.

[–] wjrii@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Well, that happened. 'Scuse me, between my alma mater on Thursday and my wife's alma mater, also my local team for the last two decades....

I think I have kerosene to go drink. Worst part of this is now I actually need Colorado to be legitimately good all year so this doesn't look as bad.

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Boy, the whole Big Noon Kickoff show was basically a Colorado show... It would be hilarious if TCU absolutely crushes the Buffs

Buffs living up to the hype.

Blocked FG!!!

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

For Colorado this is already a massive improvement over last year. I feel they will be top tier in the next three years. Just in time for my own kid to start going there.

oof, well you win some you loose some. Good drive for the cavs

edit: wrong game thread but you get the idea

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Good Block by TCU

[–] CMLVI@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Hunter is wild

[–] 1hitsong@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This game is much more exciting than I expected.

Man I don't want to turn away, but I have to pick up a pizza to get back before the 3:30 games... Should have ordered delivery

[–] CMLVI@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Hate to say it, but I think Deion is the real deal, at least going from this game.

Score: 24-21

Gus Johnson: Looks like we got an old-fashioned Big XII game

This isn't even the final form of Big XII football. Just wait until triple overtime...

[–] TheAndrewBrown@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I can’t believe how quickly this cobbled-together team is looking like the real deal. I never would’ve imagined them doing this good. And I don’t think TCU looks bad either, other than Morris.

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why are we still getting post-game coverage when the game went over? They need to switch the broadcast to the Texas game already

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

They knew what everyone is going to talk about all week.

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The hype is for real.

[–] willsenior@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Coach Prime!

Just walks into the end zone. Not great D by the Buffs there

With these lead changes, this game has become much more exciting than I anticipated

[–] wjrii@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Have family in town and haven't been able to pay attention like I might have liked. Probably the best thing for my blood pressure.

Nice return! Go Frogs!

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

So, does Colorado now have two Heisman contenders on it? I think so.

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Some backyard football here

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have this game and the Air Force game on and both are a joy to watch!

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just made an Air Force game thread here

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you! #1 Rushing Offense in College Football!

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's only one score at halftime, right were the horned frogs want the buffs

[–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'm thinking that TCU hoped to be up by 24 at this point.

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

CERTIFIED FOOT BANGER

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Special teams also getting that redemption arc going here in the 2nd half

edit: I did it again
