Going to be a warm one. Won't get below 70. I guess it could be worse. We could have had this game the first week of October when it's 90.

I remember a thread we posted posted about Nixon several months and speculated about how many touches he'd get this season. I think the O/U was around 20 touches.

He has eight right now.. 1 carry, 1 reception, and six kick returns.

Are you surprised at all by his lack of touches or is it right on par with what you thought?

Good luck - you'll need it.

What a game, especially if you like offense. Baker Mayfield is unreal. Rudolph pretty dam good too.

Big battle in the desert Sat. night.

Yeah, we say that every game is key as we approach it, however, given our record, schedule, end of season, desire for bowl game, and recruiting, a victory today is key!
We need a win now to at least attain a 6-6 record. USC and Utah are not guaranteed wins - I suspect probable losses (negative Nancy?). A loss tonight could kill us and bowl chances. A loss tonight leads us to a losing record.
Can our offense put up 35-40 points and can our defense keep them under 30? Can we keep pressure up and stop their running game? Need the best from Montez, play calling, OL, and pressure from our DL.
I am hoping our D can rise to the occasion when needed... stop them on 3rd downs.
BTW - our own 3rd down conversion went from horrific (was it 1 of 15 against WSU) to decent against Cal.
Go Buffs - bring home a win!

I have no inside information here. Just thinking out loud.

So, Scott Frost and Dan Mullen are the favorites for the Florida job. But Willie Taggart has been mentioned as interested in the position. Taggart grew up around four hours from Florida's campus.

Let's say Taggart bolts and then UO's class can be poached...

Maybe.. just maybe.. Adrian Jackson?

Kicking off at 7:30 tonight. I will be watching.

See you there.

Just want to see if you guys want to do another turkey drive for the board this year. Ill put it together and do matching turkeys for the turkeys we buy as a group. Let me know if there are any takers and Ill get to work.

Second piece. If any of you don't want to cook on Turkey day we do a prepared feast to go for 10 people through our locations. Its damn good and cuts the cooking down to about an hour or so so there is more time for booze and football.

Happy Holidays guys. Going into my favorite time of year.

ESPN is out with their preseason rankings for men's BB. The experts here probably wont be surprised but i was shocked at a ranking of 95 - seems too low to me. http://www.espn.com/mens-college-ba...0/ranking-every-team-college-basketball-1-351. Nebraska, Oregon State Stanford, and ASU are all ranked ahead of us. Of course Mizzou is ranked 71 after their stellar recruiting class which also seems surprising.

Only Cal, UDUB and Wazzo (at 230 ouch) are ranked behind us in the P12.

When was the last time we had a good o line?

CU doesn't include bowl games in their career stats, so Lindsay has 3 games to set the new record.
