Future is looking through Maroon glasses and is off the mark. This was not a good offensive game by CU. Scoring 14 points won't get it done in the majority of games and against UNH.
47's run down on the big play - was necessary because the CB's and safeties didn't do their job.
22 staying in bounds- that is what he was been instructed.
D played great - well, they played okay. Got fooled twice and got 2 INT's, gave up 295 yards passing, gave up 15 first downs, and 'gate had 8 penalties for 70 yards.
15 played better than stats show - Foolish remark. No one plays better than the stats show.
Good to get drops out of the way - Dumb comment. Drops aren't apportioned. Having some doesn't mean they are over.
29 good player - yes, but really stupid leap. He came up woozy, lucky he wasn't hurt, I'm sure he is sore today.
screens - won't get it done against a good team.
pump fakes - have negligible effect and 15 doesn't have time for them plus they don't work at all with the read option which Colgate uses so often.
I am happy they got the win but keep it in the proper perspective. Colgate better start completing passes to more receivers than Maddaluna and Russell and the DB's better have a really good day to stop UNH passes. Colgate has a chance win the game but they must get a lot of points and yards on the ground and control the clock.

You are 102% correct, Gate Raider.
I feel like I just went to smart camp.
Thank you.

Maybe he will have relieved himself by the time he gets to the Board.
Or perhaps he can hold chalk talk sessions at the Inn ?

You are welcome. Not to be pedantic, but one really can't be 102% correct. You probably know that. Instead of watching through the internet come to a few games and raise the attendance number. You will have a better perspective.

It's pathetic for the few of us who probably represent the core level of University interest in this football team and its +/- 125 years of history to waste time denigrating the efforts of our fellow posters on this Board. We are in the Playoffs, we were undefeated in the League; the Team improved in significant measures week by week, and virtually everybody is back next year (with all due praise to the Seniors who have been so valuable and who may have a game or two to go). No penalties, No missed tackles. No turnovers. Be bold. Mix things up. Own the clock.( And every poster needs to be at UNH. But based on my recollection of the pregame tailgate before the last playoff game there, back in the Jordan Scott era, be sure to wear waterproof boots because the tailgate/parking area is a swamp in good weather and an artic tundra in November).

Gate Raider,
I invite you to rip apart 104% of my posts. Always great to get another opinion and it certainly is a window into your football acumen! I have no ill will towards you and hope you go to the UNH game and give 'em hell!

jb '74, I think you're right on all points--and certainly the mud in the parking lot. Would imagine it can't be much better with it being a construction site. I do like the venue, though. Good, loud fans. This would be a great win for Colgate. Be bold and get after it.

Go 'gate!
