  1. Three years in a row, the CFP got it right.

    teams 3 and 4 were a little weak this year. This is one year where the old system (matching 1 vs 2) would have been as good as the four team playoff. I still like the four team playoff. Ohio State won the championship from the #4 spot in the playoff's first year. Not sure about 8 because...
  2. Did JT Barrett get the first down?

    I don't fault the officials on this one - it was very close and the replays were inconclusive. The pass interference calls were terrible. First OSU gets a first down on an uncatchable pass (interference was called on Michigan). Then the refs missed a pass interference on OSU inside the 10...
  3. The 1976 Orange Bowl

    That was when I was a student. The Buffs needed Oklahoma to upset the Huskers in Lincoln on Thanksgiving weekend in order for CU to go to the Orange Bowl. The Sooners did it - scoring 13 points in the 4th quarter for a come from behind 20-17 win. That day I vowed I would never root against...
  4. Paul Richardson predicted to go in the first round per Todd McShay

    I hope PRich doesn't go to KC. Then I will relive my childhood nightmare when I wanted the Broncos to draft Cliff Branch and he ended up going to the Raiders. The Broncos might consider PRich at the end of round 2, but I think he'll be gone by then.
  5. Direct TV wins

    Sunday ticket still will have value for sports bars in the next contract, but I don't think sunday ticket is as exclusive as it was a few years ago to the home viewer. The difference? When the NFL introduced the red zone channel a couple of years ago to other cable providers it diminished the...
  6. Time to take another look at the college OT rules

    I'm OK with college overtime but it really distorts the game stats. The Navy quarterback had 7 rushing touchdowns last night (3 of those in overtime).
  7. Crap, now what?

    I agree. Heck, play UNC. I'm confident George has a backup plan. Just wish this would get settled soon.
  8. Sports Authority Field tour pictures

    They don't show you the broncos locker room on the normal tour. They rent out the visitor's locker room for events during the year so that would probably be included on the regular tour.
  9. Sports Authority Field tour pictures

    I took a private tour of Sports Authority Field at Mile High yesterday, where the CU/CSU game will be played in a few weeks. Click here to see pictures I took that I posted on my sports blog. Our tour guide said during cu/csu games they often have to put fans from both schools in the...
  10. worst CU football head coach in the last 50 years?

    Embree. Hawk's 2nd year was decent and he did get the Buffs in a bowl. Fairbanks had proven success in the past at Oklahoma - I think he just didn't understand the dynamics of winning in Boulder and by the time he learned it was too late (he did tell Mac while he was leaving that he should...
  11. fishback to w kentucky

    See: http://toppatime.wordpress.com/ The Western Kentucky football program received a verbal commitment Sunday from Nelson Fishback. Fishback is a 6-foot-2, 210-pound quarterback who played the 2012 season at Butte College in Oroville, Calif., where he threw for 1,482 yards and 12 touchdowns...
  12. UCLA to seek Permission to speak to Boyle Tomorrow

    "Anyone listen to the Vic Lombardi show on Infinity radio tonight? Supposedly his guest was Boyle and he was gonna ask him about UCLA rumors" Boyle said "I'll say this: I don't publicly comment on other jobs when I already have a job. All I will say is I love being the coach of Colorado...
  13. Fan Forum Conference Call with HCMM - Feb 20th

    Is this just for season ticket holders? The Broncos have been doing this for the last couple of years, too (periodic fan calls with John Fox and/or John Elway for season ticket holders)
  14. Chances CU wins another National Championship?

    Extremely unlikely CU ever wins the national championship. But I was a fan in the 80's and in 1983 it seemed absolutely no way CU could compete with Oklahoma and Nebraska (much less winning a national title) and you know what happened 7 years later.
  15. Interview w/ HC Mike Mac

    Here's another one: The previous Buff coach was concerned that team secrets would get out if he held open practices, yet other teams (like the Broncos) hold a few public practices and scrimmages in August to build good will among their fans. How do you feel about opening some August practices...
  16. Interview w/ HC Mike Mac

    I read that you had never been to Boulder before taking the CU job. What were your first impressions of Boulder and the Colorado campus? Any surprises? Have any of your teams played at a high altitude in the past and do you think you can use the altitude to your advantage?
  17. Over 50 Crew

    I have followed the Buffs since my Dad took me to see Bobby Anderson in the late 60's. I think it's easy to forget how hopeless things looked in 1984. Mac's 3rd season where the Buffs went 1-10, with the only win a narrow 23-21 win over Iowa State that CU could have easily lost. Nebraska...
  18. Time Frame?

    Ringo said in an interview I heard this afternoon he expects the new coach to be hired within a week.
  19. Local Media Coverage of firing/hiring - (was: Joel Klatt is having a meltdown)

    "Instead of hoping to win, expect to win. Even next year," Jon Embree to the crowd at his first recruiting luncheon, February 3, 2011, on how he was going to change the team's attitude (I took notes). Wins and losses seemed pretty important to him back then.
  20. Jon Embree fired as CU Football HC

    I'm not surprised Calhoun is on the list. Bohn has worked at Air Force and hired from Air Force (Bzdelik) in the past. I'm confident Calhoun is a better game day coach and will have the team ready to play better than Embree, but can he recruit? Problem is there are so many good division 1...
