Buffs @ Texas - The Orange Mane

Jens1893 · 10-14-2005, 09:16 AM

As none of the resident CU fans wants to open this thread, I just thought I might open the thread. Can´t really comment as I´ve not managed to see CU this season so far, hopefully tomorrow, but I´ve heard a few people say the Buffs have a legitimate chance for the upset, which surprises me a bit. Do the resident CU Fans think the same ?

Of course there's a chance of beating UT. However, it's quite the uphill battle. CU must have a pretty much perfect game (Like last week) and hope that UT continues to be sloppy with the ball. I like CU's chances better in the rematch in December. I do like that UT is coming off their first win over OU in 6 years, maybe they'll be flat or even over look CU with the upcoming game against TT. I doubt it though. UT's Charles is now a game time decision with a sprained ankle that he re-tweeked in practice on Wed. I think I would rather see Selvyn Young than Charles.

I think Texass wins this one by a TD.

Pain summed up my thoughts pretty well.

Since I cannot hope for a tie, Go (and I cannot believe I am about to say this) Sffub.

Jens1893 · 10-14-2005, 01:02 PM

BTW, does one of the CU fans maybe have a copy of CU destroying NU back in 2001 on DVD? I´ve been looking for this game for a while, but no luck yet. PM me if you can help.

FADERPROOF · 10-14-2005, 01:03 PM

I think we're all waiting for Texas to finally choke away the national title, this could be the game that it occurs

One of my friends has a copy. I'm trying to get a copy from him. If I do, I'll try to get one for you as well.

Preview Courtesy of CollegeFootballNews.com:

Big 12 Game of the Week
Colorado (4-1) vs. Texas (5-0) 3:30 p.m. ET ABC
Why to watch: After thumping Oklahoma last week, the schedule opens up for Texas with, realistically, only four dangerous games left to get to Pasadena. The Big 12 title game, Texas Tech, and Texas A&M, and this one against a Colorado team that's playing much better than it's getting any national credit for. Clearly the lead dog in the North pack after an impressive 41-20 win over Texas A&M, Colorado looks to make this part one of a two game series hoping to get to the Big 12 championship. A loss at Miami is the only blemish for Gary Barnett's club which has shown explosiveness on offense, toughness on defense, and a kicking game that's the best in the country. Texas will be on high letdown alert, but the Buffs just might be good enough to ruin the dream season.

Why Colorado might win: Run defense. The Colorado defense might not have any stars, but it's a good, sound group that's currently sixth in the nation allowing a mere 77.6 yards per game. Texas A&M QB Reggie McNeal had rushed for for 369 yards over the first four games of the season with a couple of 100-yard days, but Colorado held him to -14 yards on the ground last week. Obviously, the Texas offense works at its best when Vince Young is running, but that could be a problem. On the other side of the ball, Texas hasn't faced a team that can throw, which is part of the reason it has the nation's No. 4 pass defense. CU, and QB Joel Klatt, will give the Texas corners a big test pushing the ball deep time and again.

Why Texas might win: The Texas secondary might not have been tested yet, but the run defense has gotten plenty of work facing Ohio State, Missouri, and Oklahoma (albeit, without Adrian Peterson for most of the game), as well as Rice, who only runs. Texas is only allowing 102 yards per game on the ground, with one of the nation's best lines and LB Aaron Harris keeping anyone from running effectively. Colorado is at its best with a balanced attack, but it might be just a passing team against the Longhorns. QB Joel Klatt isn't the most mobile of quarterbacks, and he'll be pressured all game long.

Who to watch: Colorado always finds effective running backs, and it has yet another good one in sophomore Hugh Charles. He's not that big, but he can be a 20-carry back if need be with 487 yards and five touchdowns averaging 5.3 yards per carry. He's one of the fastest backs Texas will face this year, and he needs to hit a few big plays early to loosen up the nasty Longhorn run D.
What will happen: Don't be shocked if Colorado pulls off the upset. With a veteran quarterback like Klatt, and physical enough lines to hold up against the great Longhorn lines, Texas will know it has been in a battle. Vince Young and the Texas running game will be too much for the Buffs, but they won't pull away until late in the fourth quarter.
CFN Prediction: Texas 30 ... Colorado 19 ... Line: Texas -17.5 | Make your pick and compete against others
Must See Rating: (5 lock yourself in a room to watch - 1 Freddie) ... 4

sad that people cant come up with their own hand signal. Instead they have to result to putting the opponents one upside down.

You heard it here first folks... Buffs are gonna walk away from Austin with a BCS upsetting win against UT. Letdown game for UT, plus the underrated Buffs D will stop the brillant Texas freshman rb all day.

26-21 Buffs in the stunner of the year

or I could just be on crack....

I gotta give it to the retard here.. He is right. CU is going to get dominated up and down the field tomorrow & I will be there enjoying every minute of it. The Buffs only prayer is that Vince goes down. Otherwise, they can't match up with the explosiveness of our offense. And if they do, they still have to worry about moving the ball on our stingy defense.
