Yes, FSU is much more talented than CU.
Yes, FSU has much more depth than CU.
Yes, FSU should win this game on paper.
However, I think CU stands a great chance in this game for several reasons.
1. FSU is just not who they used to be. They could very well be 0-2, as they almost lost at home to 0-2 UAB. They barely had a winning season last year. It is obvious, that the Noles are not the power they once were.
2. The home opener for CU, it will be a late nigt game, the students will be wild and loud, the team should be pumped up despite the tough loss to ASU.
3. 8 PM MST kockoff, means this game should be getting over at about 1:30 in the morning Florida time, add that with the altitude, and this is something that FSU is not used too. I can see FSU getting worn out in this game.
4. CU returns some stars who did not play against ASU in Sipili, J-Fly, and Hugh. It will be a big help to have them back.
5. CU did not execute plays against ASU. 2 dropped for sure TD passes and one fake punt that would have worked had the punter knew how to throw.
I think this is a great oppotunity for Colorado to make a statement, national TV, chance to go to 2-1, which would likely make them 3-1 in OOC.
I think the buffs pull this out.
