Bear Down Wildcats

After going to the last two Arizona @ Colorado games in Boulder, I've got a conflict and won't be able to attend this time. But, particularly since this is an afternoon game (highs forecast in low 60s) and some are predicting this will be the best chance to break the losing streak, I'd urge anybody to go. I think it's the best road trip in the league. Easy flight to Denver, and maybe an hour drive up to Boulder. Their ticket office is friendly and efficient, and if you stay at the Millenium Hotel, you can tailgate in the park-like area behind the hotel, and it's an easy walk to and from the game. Their campus is gorgeous, and there'll be plenty of fall color with the leaves changing. Their version of Bear Down Friday is on Pearl Street, which is fun with lots of bars and restaurants and closed off to traffic. I'd recommend the Bohemian Biergarten there for dinner and beers. Their fans aren't necessarily warm and engaging, but they'll leave you alone. Ralphie does her run right in front of the visitor section, so you're right there for that.

I went to a mid October game at Colorado in 2013 and it was awesome. Especially since we won.

With Cruz at QB, I would tend to take the Buffs and give the points.

Feels like this Colorado is our best remaining chance at a win this season. McCloud showed me enough to believe we could have won this game with him. No that he is out, I'm not confident that we will get a win this season.

Still seems low. One shining light is that Colorado is the only Pac 12 team with less sacks then us which is great considering how awful Cruz is against the blitz.

Is the decimal point in the right place?

My client (VERY large adult beverage company) has some advertising budget leftover that they’d like to spend in the Boulder market.

My suggestion? A few digital mobile billboards driving around the bar/stadium area during home games.

The opponent choices are Arizona, Oregon State, and Washington.

The Field Marketing Manager just emailed me. “Let’s try to make it happen this weekend. Seems like the most winnable game. If they lose to Arizona I doubt anyone will go to the other two.”

It is sad to be reminded of this teams lack of success at work.

Work is supposed to be a safe place.

Unless you are a Lions fan, then you can't escape it. Especially in crazy Packers fan country, where if you are not a crazy Packers fan, everyone rubs your face in it assuming you are a closet Lions fan even if you are just fairly indifferent to the NFL.

If Arizona wins can we storm CU field?

Both of us?

How the hell did they leave us out of this? Thanks I guess...

It’s because no one gives a shit about the PAC-12. My coworkers here in SEC country are more familiar with UConn than us. Legitimately had that discussion this week.

100 - 0

Money starting to come in on the Cats. Line down to Rado -6.

19-16 Arizona wins…sure why not…

Final: Arizona -6 Colorado 0. I do not how, I just know it to be so.

My bet is a tackle for a safety will be involved in the game. Hopefully by our defense.

Has there been a game in modern history where someone won 2-0? I'm rooting for that.

Just want to see us hit the 20 point mark in a game. This is the worst Arizona offense since those like 2003-2005 teams

#123 (AZ) offense vs #129 (CU) offense

Colorado's defense is significantly better than ours too.

Watch this be 3-0 in 2 OT.

According to Mike Luke Joiner has been getting about a quarter of the reps at QB this week.

Interesting considering he shot down the idea of Joiner playing qb last week

The game within the game.

Most kickers can make it that far with no one standing in his way. But it's such a low trajectory that he would give his own player a concussion in a game situation, like Zendejas the lesser did if he didn't hit them in the butt.

69 is the college record by some Swede for a Texas NAIA school.

NCAA record is 67 done by 4 kickers. I think they all used tees back then of course.

Thank the stars I had zero expectations coming into this season and now I can definitely say that Wildcat football should be taken out back behind the shed and put down for good.

At least Fisch won the offseason.

Each week is a little more pressure on Tommy.

At least soccer is doing well

Ouch!

But at least they have won some non-conf games, but are oh-fer in conference too.

Even Ben Lindsey won one conference game.

Up to Lowe and Lloyd now to try and win a conference game.

I think I have a better chance at winning Powerball than either of them do at having a successful season.

Does anybody have a link to Fisch's post game presser?
