The hate for Prime is hilarious be

And CMC is doing what? That's the crazy thing they have energy and passion in the program. ISU has one of the best fans but we on this Love Boat cruise
Yeah people shouldn’t be hating too much. Colorado is likely going to roll us next season

Went to bed at 11, but nice to see Coach Prime and the Buffs come back and get the W.

Norvell can go back to obscurity where he belongs next week on some regional sports channel.

Colorado definitely looks suspect on defense, my prediction is they finish 9-3 or 8-4. They have a brutal schedule and will definitely take some lumps before the season is over.

that continued in the second half

Which makes no sense. Tempers flair but to not correct it with the lead is just weird.

They were dominating and had the chance to take a 10-14 point lead into halftime but got dumb and were back on their own 30 or so.

Watching the Colorado replay now.

Man Colorado State has some dirty players. It sounds like Hunter will be out a few weeks, so the HOK successfully accomplished his mission of knocking out one of the best players in the country.

Now the haters will be rewarded when they lose a couple games against USC and Oregon since they are missing an All-American.

CU's defense and Oline will be the reasons they lose. If CSU keeps their head they win and they are not good.

The refs needed to step in early last night and stop the nonsense from both sides. One of the mini-Sanders didn't get anything for putting his hands through a CSU player's facemask into the eyes and there were other things that went too far.

Conservative play calling also got them beat. Norvell looked like Campbell or Ferentz last night by punting on 4th and 2.

On the road like that he could have put the game away but he chose to rely on his defense to stop a high powered offense and it backfired.

The Pac-12 looks brutal this year and they have a tough schedule so losses are coming soon.

With the remaining 12 teams having a pretty "meh" week this week we should probably be glad Colorado and Utah are looking good considering Utah is without star player.

Ideally the Big 12 schedule is easier than the grind it has been but without totally falling off the map.

I'll be shocked if Deion stays very long, unless he has some attachment to Colorado I don't know about. I think it's a job you can win at and the next coach could do great if it's a good hire.

Their defensive play calling also changed completely when they had a lead in second half.

They were winning the game early by living in the CU backfield.

Yeah usually I think the personal foul calls have an element of chance but it looked like they were just out for blood. I heard the announcer say 8 personal fouls at one point but I still can't believe it.
