No they can't.

In reality OP consistently has the most negative comments I've seen on this board. To the point where it's absurd.
Fair enough, but I don't really track the poster. But Snyder was a huge whiff by the Rutgers coaches, especially considering last season. How does a MAC team present a functional offense and move the ball in year 3 of the head coach's tenure? Snyder looks light years better than Noah, Cole and Gavin last year and the year before.

Seems like they've really struggled to move the ball in the second half. Don't think they score again the rest of the game. I hope they do, really like Snyder.

Given Vedral played hurt all last year that's not a fair comparison.

Buffalo defense and lines getting worn down and it shows. We saw this movie 9 times last year.

Have to admit I hate all the lopsided games early in the season with powerful programs beating up on cupcakes. Not enjoyable at all. College doesn’t play that many games why waste them on non competitive opponents. It’s like throwing away 2 to 3 games every year. That’s my rant.

Coach Prime has a winners mentality. Never count a guy like that out

Prime hit that school like a hurricane on day one
I've followed him on Facebook where he posts 7 days a week.
He never posts negative or wavers.
"We comin..we gon do it.. we ready to shock the world" etc.
Prime makes players believe in themselves AND he lets them make mistakes as they come along.

Greg is the reverse of that and my biggest complaint is that he hovers over players like he doesn't trust them
First year player is "young and needs to learn."
Second year player is "coming along and slowly getting it" (but not done yet).
Third year is about "optimism".

Greg is like a nervous Italian mom that freaks out if sonny rides his bike down the street with his friends.
Greg is like a dark cloud.
I like Greg but seeing a lot of players as mistakes waiting to happen does not bring the best out.
Prime seens players as ready to do great things

Will be interesting to see how the Colorado fanbase does if they get lit up today. It’s certainly possible TCU cruises to a 21+ point win. I can’t ever remember this amount of hype around a coach and program.
Enjoy your crow!

In a rigged league where teams get to determine the circumstances of their sport it's inevitable schedules will be filled with bad games. In fact, most college football games are non-competitive and dull, probably one reason the NFL gets much higher ratings.
