Any read into this prospect? Sounds like we have a shot

“It's the case of when preparation meets opportunity, and [Micah Welch] prepared himself for that moment. When his moment came, he was able to perform,” Coach Flea said.

More on how Welch and the Buffs are establishing their ground presence ⬇️

You know how they say do not let last week's loss turn into a second loss the next week or something like that. Well I hope the team will not let least week's win turn into a loss, with all the stuff about before, during and after last weeks game still being talked about, at least on social media.

Albeit against a weaker opponent, did HCDS and OC Pat Shumer learn anything about their offense Friday night? Give the running game more than just a token glance and your QB stays on his feet more, is sacked and hurried much much less. Give your Offensive Line several chances to go attack someone on their side of the ball and their pass pro improves. Question is, what will they do with this? Go back to the offense they were at Nebraska or the offense at CSU? I still have my doubts about the latter after watching the final two minutes unfold. Was total BS that we threw the even once from that point on whether Shumer called it or SS checked to them.

Here are some key injury updates. Troy will have his takeaways from Coach Prime's comments later today.
