Colorado vs NDSU - 8/29

I know it's a little early for a thread on this game, but this ain't no gimme for Deion and crew. NDSU is a heck of a program.

It would be pretty dang interesting to see Colorado lose to an FCS school right out of the gate, even if it is the top dog in FCS schools.

I agree, NDSU is no cupcake. Could be interesting. I’d love to see them come into Boulder and win.

Wouldn't be a bit surprised with Buffs get upset. i know I'm pulling for NDSU!

I expect a loss tbh. They're breaking in two new coordinaters and 5 new coaches total after one year at Colorado. That should tell you guys something. Neon demoted his best coach (Sean Lewis) for no apparent reason last year in which resulted in the loss of nearly half of their ppg. The only bright spot was the offense under Lewis control and he destroyed it. That's how you know Neon will not succeed. Let's see how well his son does now that the guru isn't there to dial in his play calling.

definitely a clash of program styles.

NDSU is all about building up players, and developing a team first approach.
Colorado is all about flash, getting developed guys, and focusing on star power instead of team.

NDSU has a new head coach, but they seem to have success no matter who the HC is. It's a game where if Colorado doesn't play well, they absolutely will lose.

 

[StarRaider]

title is misleading to me... NDSU at CU.



Altitude will probaly gas the Bison (Fargo is about 900 ft MSL)

 

[Godfatha]

Go NDSU

You play fantasy football?

Ah. I really appreciate it but I'm already in another league and things are always kind of chaotic with the kids. Thanks though

Colorado will not beat them.
They will lose by 3 TDs

 

[SpookyAction]

NDSU will play team football. While a couple of elite athletes can come through against any opponent, the Buffs will probably not be as well-coached.
I expect a close game.

Bison beat the Buffs by a touchdown and Deion skips the post game press conference.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Colorado will beat the brakes off of them. Then the media will be saying how great they are and start up the hype train just like they did last year when they beat TCU.

I hope you’re wrong, but this is very likely. It’s very hard to overcome talent. It happens, but not often.

There's a reason FBS schools don't typically schedule NDSU.
