has colorado converted 2 two point conversations? that would be outstanding

also reading on the ticker that the Oregon fans booed heavily when Oregon lined up in their spread PAT formation -- Oregon did kick the PAT

CU has some talent, and can play with just about anyone for about 2 1/2 quarters - then they always seem to find a way to self-destruct.

Oregon really deserves to lose just for wearing those orange shoes and socks.

Physical game with Nebraska took a lot out of the Ducks. Just think, a few years from now, the Huskers travel to Boulder, and that will be a tough game to win if they (cu) stay on the same course they are now.

That's a good thing. We want CU to a be a tough win. It will prepare us for the rest of the season and give us credibility nationally. Only schedule creampuffs and you deserve to get let out of the discussion.

Oh good god! Oregon is not a very good football team this year. What on their schedule thus far makes anyone think so. Need to stay grounded about the victory last week. Was a good win vs and average team but nothing more.

Well Duck fans shouldn't complain about the officials this week. They just took a TD away from CU that every replay angle showed was a catch.

As if Colorado didn't have a physical game against Michigan last week. The Ducks are very average this year.

Average? It's still September. Ducks can still do a lot of damage with their offense this season.

And they just took the lead.

Scott Frost left at just the right time. This program has been showing sgns of decline for a couple years.

Oregon just isn't very good this season and they're now without some top players..

Up 16-7 after one. CU playing tougher lately.

These are not your "Chip Kelly" Ducks. Baylor wore Nike and the Ducks had several players in trouble during Chip's era. Chip liked to recruit in Texas. Bring Art to Eugene. I bet Uncle Phil Knight can broker that deal.

Oregon isn't the Oregon of old, but CU is a MUCH improved team this year. One of the ESPN Pac12 analysts I was listening to before the season picked them to be in the Pac12 championship game. You really can't make judgements until the season is over. See Notre Dame....

CU is a perfect example of a coach that got some time. Macintyre made freakin San Jose state into something. I think this is the best coaching decision CU has ever made.

the thing that changed for colorado was 2 assistant coach hires. last year they hired jim leavitt to be the dc defense improved. this year they hired the texas tech wr coach to be the co oc. the offense is ten times better.

Despite the fun and sun burn last weekend, my eyes saw a pretty ho-hum Oregon team. One that looked like a 5 loss team. Wouldn't be surprised if it was 6+ after the Colorado loss. Wash, Stanford, and Utah almost certain... USC , Cal, ASU...toss ups

You know, while it is a longshot, cu and Nebraska could meet in the Rose Bowl. A lot would have to occur, but stranger things have happened.o_O
