Adversity continues...

CU defensive backs Cha'pelle Brown and D.J. Dykes each have been playing with a broken hand and will continue to do so Saturday against Oklahoma State.

Brown had to be prodded to talk about his, insisting it's just a finger on his left hand and "it's good."

The starting cornerback said he initially injured the digit in the second quarter of the Texas A&M game Nov. 1.

"It isn't too bad; I can play through it," Brown said. "My adrenaline's been going, so I really don't feel anything until after the game. I don't even think about it."

Brown wore padding on his left hand Saturday in a 28-24 win against Iowa State and had a normal workload. Dykes, who combined with Brown on the game-closing goal-line stop, apparently broke a finger during the game.

Secondary coach Greg Brown said an X-ray indicated the finger looked like a "broken golf tee."

My personal opinion:

If CU can somehow find its way into a bowl game, this team deserves it so much. This year is probably exactly what Hawkins didn't want to happen!

Wow. A lot of people don't like D.J. but my respect for him just went way up, along with Cha'pelle.

I think people don't care for his lack of speed but I've never seen anybody doubt his leadership or toughness.

This team definitely has character. Even if we don't go to a bowl, as an alumnus this is how I want the team to be. With the excetion of the Missouri game they have played with a tremendous amount of heart.

One thing I will say about the Buffs is they have not laid down this year, unlike my Huskers last year, good to see them working hard so far this season.:smile:

I will rep you for three reasons:

1. This is a nice post.
2. You are not coming in here talking a bunch of **** and starting fights, so I don't mind you.
3. I don't want you to have red in your rep bar. You would like that. You should suffer with green.
