Washington @ Colorado

You should be worried that we haven't cut the field in 6 weeks to make the grass really, really high to slow you guys down. It doesn't affect our team average of 5.3 40, but it might for you.

Obviously you guys are struggling this year, hence the large spread, but what are your bright spots that we will need to be worried about?

I'm really trying to answer this one, but I've got nothing. Net punting is pretty good for us this year. Washington's penchant for not showing up on the road and turning the ball over a lot could keep things close. That's all I could come up with.

Maybe you guys will have a man operating an automated sprinkler system and trip us up ;)

If this happens to one of your players have him contact Darth Snow; he will gladly represent his legal needs, and God-given right to collect on his injury.

thing you need to worry about for an away game at boulder:

1. ralphie might get loose and rampage through your coaching staff.
2. your players might fail a drug test from second hand smoke.
3. the altitude. fear it. your highly conditioned athletes might actually collapse from hyperventilation at any given time.
4. sunburn.
5. the boulder turnpike can be very congested on game weekends.

I have gone to every Washington Husky home game except the Portland State game. I have seen them beat Oregon State, Stanford, SD State, and most recently Utah. They were 5-1 playing at Century link field, their only loss being a sloppy effort against USC. The Buffs are in BIG trouble this weekend. But then again we are always in big trouble. Although I will say if, and this is a huge IF, If they can get pressure on Teeth Price, he tends to struggle and turn the ball over. He is very careless with the ball and is prone to fumbles. The washington O line after a rough start is playing pretty well and Bishop Sankey their RB is fast and runs hard. That said, I think we can keep this team to the spread of 20 or so.

Isn't it sad when we talk about just covering the spread at home? W0W
 
When UW takes the lead, CU's upperclass leaders and scared puppy freshmen on defense will fold like a cheap suit, just as they did last year at UCLA (even though they managed wins before and after this game).

Our defense doesn't need to practice, it needs to lay on a couch and get counseling. When teams score against CU, they score in BUNCHES. Holes like Arizona ran though haven't been seen in Boulder since 2001 when we put 63 on Nebraska.

If you fail to put the dagger in (by making costly mistakes when you have the chance to bury CU), well then CU could stick around. We stuck around vs. ASU and UCLA at home for a half and even had an even Q1 vs. Stanford. But then reality set in and the defense laid down, at the first sign of adversity.

Yes. And it's also important to note that the CU offense will never respond to a change in momentum by getting some first downs, let alone scoring. Against a fired up defense, our offense is pretty much a lock for a 3-and-out.
 
Washington isn't that good. If Embree is going to win another PAC 12 game this is an opportunity.
 
CU will have a big play or two late in the game..... to cut the Washington lead to 28.
