NCAA: Week 3: After Dark is Prime Time

[GKJ]

Am really curious to see the result of this team vs Ducks next weekend. Either result will be a positive in some way.

Oregon and USC both gonna go for 60. They’re gonna make the Holiday Bowl a fun time though.

What did the refs screw up?

The bogus illegal block call against CSU decided the game.

The bogus illegal block call against CSU decided the game.

How was it bogus?? That was a textbook call.

 

[JTBF81]

The illegal block was a textbook blindside pick that's getting called pretty much every time. Colorado has plenty of flaws, but perhaps CSU should learn that multiple illegal, late and in some cases, quite dirty hits don't often lead to victory.

 

[GKJ]

Colorado was 1-64 over the last 10 years trailing by 10 in the 4th quarter

How was it bogus?? That was a textbook call.

It wasn’t textbook, had no effect on the quality play either.

 

[GKJ]

It wasn’t textbook, had no effect on the quality play either.

You can’t turn back toward the line of scrimmage to block on a pass play prior to the pass. Not sure how you came to the conclusion that it had no effect on the play, and as a personal foul it doesn’t matter if it does.

I agree CSU taking stupid penalties in OT cost them the game.

This Prime hype is off the f***ing charts. And I love it. I've barely watched college football the last three years, and here I am on a Saturday night scrambling around trying to get a Colorado-Colorado State game onto TV in Canada via three layers of technology. People on their way over with cases of beer upon word that I've got it on. Live betting websites going absolutely bonkers with wild line movements. Goal posts coming down when a 23 point favourite wins in OT. What a time to be alive. The longer the Buffs stay undefeated, the crazier this will get.

 

[GKJ]

Curious to see what the ratings were for that. Guessing ESPN had perhaps their highest ratings ever between 1-3am

I agree CSU taking stupid penalties in OT cost them the game.

Hell, you could say that for the entire game. CSU should’ve had it in the bag but they couldn’t stop shooting themselves in the foot over and over.

Anyways, I fully expect Oregon and USC to completely body them over the next two weeks. Like @GKJ said, we could see 60 being hung on them in consecutive weeks.

Looking forward to next weeks slate of games with tOSU/ND being my main focus for obvious reasons, but we’ll also be getting:

Florida St/Clemson
Ole Miss/Alabama
UCLA/Utah
Colorado/Oregon
Oregon St/Wazzu
Iowa/Penn St

@GKJ If you want to tell everyone that you are smarter than a Stanford grad, then try & outwit Stanford Steve (who was 2-4 last week and 4-8 on the season) on this 4-pack:

Ga. Southern + 20 vs Wisky
West Virginia+1 vs Pittsburgh
Florida+6.5 vs Tennessee
Minnesota+7.5 vs North Carolina

And if you want to earn enough $$$$$$ to help the Jets down the road with their $75 million cap hit on Rodgers, then go with The Bear on these gems:

Purdue+2.5 vs Syracuse

Texas A&M-36 vs Louisiana Monroe

Ohio+3 vs Iowa State

Illinois+15 vs Penn State

Both guys go 2-2

Don't undergrads only get one free transfer? Or can you go in the portal more than once? I am just thinking with all the talent going to Boulder, even when Prime inevitably leaves in a few years, they will be decently stocked up.

There’s supposed to be certain circumstances, but we’ve already seen one get denied this year.

 

[GKJ]

Oklahoma State lost to South Alabama at home 33-7?

 

[PanthersPens62]

'Bama dropped 3 spots to #13 in the AP Poll. My beloved U moved up to #20.

 

[Hasbro]

 

[GKJ]

Oregon opens as 20.5-point favorites.

Colorado was in tough against Oregon and USC to begin with with Hunter likely out this weekend I’ll be impressed if Colorado can keep it close

 

[GKJ]

I’ll be impressed if they cover the spread, honestly.

They should score 30 vs. USC, not sure about in Oregon, which makes it hard if they score 50.
