I know. That was the point of my response to azbuff. Losing to Hawaii, who is far worse than CSU, does not mean we lose to CSU 2 weeks later.

I would agree, even though I would venture to guess that we'll be favored in all 4... Maybe.
So, you're arguing that losing to Hawaii either has no influence on whether we beat CSU or makes it more likely that we beat CSU? I can't agree with that.

I will say this: rumor is that the Junta certainly knows how to deflate balls.
They do suck.
4-0 is a must if we want to go bowling imo. 3 wins in conference is already a tough sell, if we go 3-1 a bowl game is extremely hard to see. If we go 2-2 we got some serious issues.
Mr. Negative Nancy. I don't think it is "doubtful" at all. That's too negative just as I'd say "likely" is too positive. I'll go with "very possible." I would say the Hawaii game is the most difficult just because Hawaii is a historically tough road game. Get past them, and I go from "very possible" to "highly possible" or even "likely."
Apparently you don't. Although I'm a lot more centered than I used to be. Things change with age. But losses are gut wrenching for me.

MM needs to go 4-0.
I'm loving how some here can demand we should go 4-0. The first game in this count up to 4-0 run is an away game with an 11pm kickoff for a bunch of jet lagged players in a shortened practice week. :lol:
Oregon State did it last year. So did Udub. Colorado could/should have beaten both of those teams last year. Colorado should be improved in 2015. Why the excuses?
Shortened practice week?
A shortened practice week for the first game of the year? :wtf:
And so it begins...
Come on man!! It's the first game of the season! They sure as hell better be able to figure out how to get out there early enough to take "jet lag" out of the equation. The thing I'd worry about is too much time chillin' in Hawaii. It'll be good practice for our bowl game.
This is how I cope. Plan for 0-11 or 0-12. Pleasantly surprised when we win. No broken televisions or wounded pets.
This year, you better plan for 0-13.
:lol:
The old "Hope for the best, plan for the worst" philosophy, eh? I'm more the "Power of Positive Thinking" kind of guy. No. I am. Really.
