    'Coach Prime' is always going to talk. That's his character. Coach Deion Sanders needs to pump the brakes though. It's like Buddy Love and Professor Klump.

    No that's not him and if you listen to him he doesn't attack the other coaches and their players. He's very respectful of the other teams players and that's by design. He's coming for some of them in the portal.
    Watch how he handled CS player being attacked for that late hit. He defended that kid even though he's got a guy out for 3 games.

    He's not coaching those boys to be flash, he's old school coaching. I've watched some videos. He pulls no punches and his own kids can get it too. Even the announcers said it during the broadcast. So all the flash and clicks talk is pure jealousy.

    The other coaches know this and that's why they attack him and when they get a chance they talk game on him. I can guarantee he grabs someone from Oregon in the portal next year. Lanning's pregame speech was pretty telling , talking about those kids playing for clicks and that they have no substance, just flash. He was attacking those players directly. His halftime interview as well, he took it personal that Colorado is getting attention. That came off to me as someone who's jealous that someone who's enjoyed more success as a player in 2 sports and as an HBCU head coach is getting media attention.

    Post game, you can see the moment he realized he had gone too far when he tried to validate saying what he said. Sanders was respectful and laid it out there. They better get their wins on him now in the first year of the rebuild, because he's coming for their 5 stars next year. Tell me a kid that plays D-line that isn't going to want to be coached by Hall of Famer Sapp? He's bringing in some names that know how to play in the NFL.

    I do agree he needs to pump the brakes on some of his players though. He can take all the heat and that's what he should be doing. His players though, those are the guys that are going to be getting that extra hit after the play, because their coach told them to.

    I agree and Colorado only won 1 one game last year but have already won 3 this year. I think he has been good for that program thus far.

    Colorado has skill players to spare but they are not very good up front in the trenches on either side of the ball. That has to change but Deon has been good for college football so far.

    If Sanders doesn't get control of his kids at that program then he will have issues recruiting. They are quick becoming known as thugs. Just keep your mouth shut and play football

    I'll I got out of the game today was USC shouldn't be in the playoffs this year. Their D is freaking horrible.....again. Something that happens to Lincoln Riley coached teams.

    The USC defense was BAD. I haven’t watched enough PAC 12 ball this year to have a definitive view, but right now it looks to me like Oregon may be the best of the bunch. Their defense suffocated that same Colorado team. I haven’t even watched Washington yet.

    If one of those teams comes out of their conference championship unscathed, they will be in the playoff.

    I think USC is the weakest from the bunch. They are too one sided. As what seems to happen with Lincoln R as a coach.
    Washington looks right now like the best Offense, but I think ....like You said... Oregon is the most complete team. Of course it's only from what I've seen so far. Still a lot of ball left.

    Crazy, I didn't even know YouTube had live sports like this.

    It is Friday night Standford @ Colorado live on YouTube. The return of Travis Hunter.


    AFTER: You have to wonder if the late start of the game helped the West Coast Stanford team come alive in the 2nd half and Overtime. Overtime did not begin until 2AM EST. I probably don't watch enough College football to know if this kind of late-night game is common. The game was in Colorado and ended around 1AM local time.

    I checked in with the game on YTTV after the Pens game. It was 29-0 with the first half about to end. The announcers were talking as if Colorado had won and how incredible it was that they went from terrible to bowl eligible. :facepalm:

    I mainly blame the loss on Prime's use of Travis Hunter. After sitting out the last 4 weeks with a lacerated liver, he seemed to be out there on every play getting burned. Not sure why Hunter was not on some kind of snap count when returning from injury. I would love to know how many snaps Hunter took on offense and defense in his first game back from injury.
