I heard yesterday on the news, CU has sold out the rest of their games. No big deal right? Well this is the first time CU has ever sold out their stadium for an entire year.
Joel Klatt, a CU alum, on sports radio this morning commented that CSU was the better team for the majority of the game, and did not think CU would win. He likes the fact CU is doing well, however he didn’t seem to think they’ll do well the rest of the year.
They discussed the gritty game and Joel said both coaches should have dialed it back, not sure what you know, Jay Norvell mentioned something about taking off your hat and sun glasses when addressing the media/adults. Prime took issue, thus why everyone and their dog was wearing sunglasses and hats at the game. Norvell basically said CSU has a good team too and took issue with CU getting all the hype.
Klatt said with Fox onsite, GameDay onsite, plus all the celebrities coming out of the woodwork it was a recipe for disaster. Regarding the hit on Travis Hunter none thought is was egregious, however Klatt said there is no governing body to suspend that player for a game, so nothing will come of it and those types of plays will continue. Penalty flag but no suspensions, etc. Mark “Stink” Schlereff said it was similar to what he used to do late in plays as an OL, he’d sometimes clear players off the pile if he didn’t like them. Klatt mentioned he had a $500 bounty put on his head by a Miami booster and that player “collected.” He was knocked out of a game vs Miami. (College not pros)
They also discussed how CU’s lines were exposed by CSU and they think they’ll be further exploited in the upcoming games. I’m sure Buffs fans didn’t like that segment.
The hosts were joking that CU owes Joel NIL reparations for his time there. He laughed, but didn’t entertain the topic.
This is not sustainable. And I think former CU players are cautiously optimistic. Oregon, USC, UCLA will make good on knocking CU down a peg or two. They don’t play Washington and I fear by the time they play Utah, they’ll be on borrowed time.
