“We didn’t run much last year” lmao

Also, mainly 3-4, and said often have 4 safeties on the field

247 seems to think a lot of Morris. Saying that he is an upgrade from Duggan is pretty ridiculous, imo.

Ranking every starting QB in the Power 5: A battle at the top, breakout candidates, risk-reward players

There are several big subplots throughout the quarterback landscape this offseason, starting with who's college football's top signal-caller: Is it Heisman winner Caleb Williams or Drake Maye?

Yeah, that's complete BS. Morris doesn't have the toughness and grit that Duggan had. There were times last year that Duggan literally willed TCU to a victory. Morris has none of that. Plus, he's not the dual threat Duggan was. Add in the fact been he's beaten out everywhere he's been and I have a hunch he begins the season as the starter, but might not finish it as the starter.

Why wait, let's have CU put him on the bench.

That always works out well for us!

DM: You may choose to have a different RB enter the game, but you must roll a 1d6 (with disadvantage) to determine which back goes in. If you roll a natural 1, you must play the entire next series using only a walk on.

The list. You just made it.

Only after a tight end makes a catch.

you're allowed to throw to a tight end?

I placed 1k on the Buffs beating the 3.5 wins by the Vegas odds makers. thank you for the extra 1k in winnings. I will use some of that to purchase more Buffs gear

I placed that same $1k bet, but I got +140 odds.

Random musings from some of the video

Byron Leftwich is in town. Big time
Javon Antonio is enormous
Shilo is probably a safe dark horse for a key contributor this Fall

We might recall that even Orge, who had a pronounced intelligence deficiency, eventually succumbed to the allure of being a nerd, as did the hot girls.
Yes, reality often mirrors fiction.

Come into the light... all are welcome....

Oh, by the way, you are welcome to join in on our next nerd ultra-marathon--just a short 50-mile trail run.

Cormani had a bit of a rough initial adjustment with the altitude, but he can cover. Here he is against likely starter #10 Xavier Weaver.

Not really. That is supposed to be their strength on defense. They lost 11 starters mostly on offense. Their rush defense was woeful last year and I think we can take advantage of that.
A lot of TCU fans seem to think their offense will be similar to last year but I don't see how you replace Duggan, Johnson, both running backs, both guards, and your center and expect the same production.
We replaced everyone so there is a little pot and kettle argument here but replacing garbage with legit transfers is better than replacing NFL draft picks with the guys who couldn't beat them out IMO.
They were one of the oldest teams in college football last year and won a lot of games that could have gone either way.
I think we win outright.

Hey!!! To be fair, their starting QB this year DID beat out Duggan. It’s just that CU put him in the hospital last year and he lost his job.

 

[CUAviator]

not to mention repacing garrett riley.

Thanks for the info!

It now they’ve got Kendal Briles. The master of the clutch play call.

Coach Hart gives a great interview. I was surprised to hear him say that if the first game was tomorrow, Ham would be his starting Mike linebacker.

Hart playing mind games with rotations and Ham comment.

Because the picture you responded to doesn’t show up unless you click the link, I got stuck in a mind melt trying to figure out what / who the **** an “Orge” is.

I still contend Cormani is a Day 1 starter at CB.

Yeah, and they go 8-5 last year with Morris so...

I was wondering if a 50 mile "Trial" run was a D&D expansion. Also, Dwarves are natural sprinters, wasted on cross-country.

Lol. Wish that was it and not just that my typing sucks at Level 10.

Travis Hunter makes another crazy play. The dude can cover two people at once. About 14:35-14:40 mark.

many sports wagering establishments would like you to bet the CU money-line.

ultra-marathons are the penultimate nerd sport, trailing only triathlons.

Oooh, look at the fancy guy using “penultimate” correctly.

 

[NWD Buff]

Oooh, look at the fancy guy using “penultimate” correctly.

Actually, no. Penultimate means next to last, as in a sequence. Not second most, as it is being used here.

 

[CUAviator]

Actually, no. Penultimate means next to last, as in a sequence. Not second most, as it is being used here.

I viewed it as second to last in a list from least nerdy to most nerdy - being that being most nerdy is the last thing you’d want.

 

[NWD Buff]

I viewed it as second to last in a list from least nerdy to most nerdy - being that being most nerdy is the last thing you’d want.

Then you would have to say that ultramarathons are the penultimate entry on an ascending list of nerd sports. The original comment was just that they were the penultimate nerd sport.

Ultimate can mean both last (final) or most, but penultimate only means next to last.
