An other milestone for Dan Hawkins; first road win with CU.
Impressions from the game:
55yd Eberhardt FG at the half was the backbreaker. Taking the TO, then going for 3 was to bury the hatchet from last year's 3OT loss.
Highlights
1) Jordon Dizon interception return. One juke move away from a TD. It was nice to see the nation's leading tackler make people miss.
2) Hugh Charles laid down a pass protection block in the 1st half that flipped a BU defender ass over tit. Highlight reel material for sure.
3) CU rush defense. Solid.
4) WR J-Fly and Sprague ran some clean routes. The long ball to Josh Smith adds some excitement.
5) DiLallo nailed his punts, one downed on the three.
6) Sure is easier to breath with Wheatly returning kicks. Stephone had a nice return. Any time he catches the ball first, and then runs is a blessing.
7) Didn't see any bad snaps.
Things to work on:
1) Pass Rush: No sacks and not enough presure. Baylor QB had all day to throw and was scarcely touched.
2)More penalty flags than what's healthy.
3) Open field tackeling. #4 Gettis was burning the first and second defenders too many times. He came close to breaking loose 3 or 4 times.
Waco Experience:
Baylor fans were pleasant before, during and after the game. I saw zero drunken jerks and heard no trash talk.
A Baylor sorority girl came through the CU fan section twice collecting plastic cups as part of a recycling program. That was the most environmentally friendly gesture I've seen in a stadium since CU's pitching oranges onto the turf at Folsom.
Kudos to Mike Bohn, Misti Hawkins, the CU cheerleaders and the CU athletic department staff for coming to the pregame BBQ. Ladyblaise made it perfectly clear to that the next trip to Tempe should be in November.
Very cool to sing the CU fight song with the players after the game.
Good Times. Bring on the North!
