COLORADO v Michigan OFFICIAL Game Thread

Too easy to write this off as special teams and losing Sefo. The defense wore down as the game went on.

Does the defense wear down if not for the special teams blunders? Michigan would have been throwing to get back into the game instead of running and hitting play action. The entire game unfolds differently without the punting gaffes.
 
bummer of a game. we looked good for a quarter plus, then the wheels fell off.

gotta fix special teams.. and hopefully sefo isn't out for long
 
No ST coach. Hagan was added as RB coach. 55 yards rushing.

Not a good look MM. Opens you up to criticism.

And, despite what you say, vast majority of teams have ST coach, including 11/12 in P12.

And who is the coach responsible for punt team. Don't want Committee answer, MM, as each coach has an area they focus on.
 
Tired of playing not to lose big. We waved the white flag right before half time when WAC Mac decided to stop playing to win, and that was before the sefo injury. We also had a glimpse of our future qb who didn't really do anything at all...yikes

Yes and I'm already tired of having any potential failure moving forward excused by Sefo's injury and possible absence. If we don't make a bowl game, don't beat Oregon, etc, it's a team failure and not a sad case of "what would happened if Sefo had played." Sefo has been great but I'm not convinced he won't have periodic lapses that cost us games the last couple of years. Also given the importance of the QB position, not having a suitable backup is a team (coaching staff) failure. What about Montez playing more in garbage time v CSU?

Not trying to say Sefo's absence doesn't matter, of course it does, just not looking forward to hearing that as the excuse for every upcoming failure.

Holy sheet, Shay Fields calling everyone out on post game

Is Shay Fields calling out Shay Fields for dropping the ball on 3rd down on Montez's first possesion? You know, that one that went through his hands, hit him in the numbers and bounced to the turf.

Of course the final score is different without the gaffes on special teams, but yes, the defense was getting gassed and that was happening anyway.

IMHO, this roster is as good as it's been since Hawkins took over. This program was so far in the dumps that I still think Mac deserves another season even if they finish 3-9 or 4-8.

That is, of course, unless he puts his son in to throw a bunch of passes with a huge lead against Arizona in the second half only to see them come back and beat us.
 
They had them early and didn't step on their neck. Thing is, anybody bitching hopefully are the type that BETTER step up next week.
 
I'm happy with where we are but am still pulling my hair out from mostly self inflicted wounds by MM:

Horrid QB recruiting for years
Zero emphasis on ST'S
Recruiting tiny LB's that were pushed around like feathers all game

We took the lead in the third quarter.
