Just enjoying the moment

There were a TON of CU fans there. They were very loud but not obnoxious or abusive. Walking to the game, I saw a huge tailgate lot and, on the walk, I was outnumbered 5-1

A lot of them left at halftime. Halftime! Like how far did you come to see the game and/or if you are Chicago based, when's the last time/next time you get to see your team?

Part of that was the rain. Their team was down 21 at half and the other team looks much better and it is pouring rain. I would go back to my tailgate, try to stay dry, and only go back in if the team mounts a comeback.

A decisive win over a high profile (albeit not very good) P4 team is certainly something to savor. While the next two weeks present opportunities for huge wins, the hope the Cats can pull off a ‘95 Notre Dame level win next week or a repeat of last year’s trip to State College isn’t yet on my mind. I did enjoy reading the comments on a Colorado fan forum following the trajectory of their emotion from “Buffs win easily“ to “ we are the better team how can we be losing to a bottom feeder” to “ our coaching staff sucks” to “ I’m doing yard work the rest of the season.”

The Cats have a lot of season to go, but it feels good today!

Preach.

There's more work to do, of course, but starting 2-0 (let alone looking as great as they did vs. Colorado) was passing two very important early tests given the way the schedule shakes out this year, and puts them in position to play meaningful football late in the season just by taking care of the teams they should (to say nothing of the upside should they upset some higher-profile opponents).

Absolutely loving watching Himon become an outright weapon.
