I just think you shouldn't throw stones when you live in a glass house, as if Auburn has played 3 good teams and looked good doing it. Just saying. I'm enjoying the ride. You should too, except you seem a little personally butt hurt about Deion winning, even resulting to call him a narcissist. The media coverage might be a bit too much but even a hater can realize when you literally bring in 80 new players and win in the ways they're doing, it's going to bring attention. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say what you want to those guys and run the team the way you want. But behind closed doors. Really, really didn’t like that. I will say, I agree with you on that. I don't disagree with the fact that he had to churn the roster. It was a bad and hard decision and he needed to do it. But he played a bit too hard the Jimmy Johnson/Bill Walsh mold even though he never played for Jimmy or Bill. Both of them did that, but you're right, they did it mostly behind closed doors and didn't let anyone see. He never played directly for either but he knew they did it and he played the role but for a stage. I get it, it's the harsh reality of football and it's why Johnson and Walsh are NFL Hall of Fame Head Coaches and why Sanders wears rings that their successors won. But no, you're right, don't do it in public. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, nor anybody I know, thinks Auburn deserves to be considered a contender right now. We aren’t acting like we’ve done anything for 3 mediocre wins. And that’s where we differ from Colorado. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScotsAU 1,343 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 They interviewed Deion’s son after the game. While he was excited by the win, he was definitely shaken up by what happened to Hunter. Hate it for the kid. Hope he’s okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of people on here who have a personal vendetta against Deion because a part of the fanbase wanted him and probably still does, so they do not want to see him succeed to be proven right. Just like a few have made it personally with Lane for whatever odd reason. I am happy for Deion , I think this scare will humble as well. I do think Colorado (I know I did) thought they would walk in there and the rams will just roll over. Colorado will have a bullseye on their back because of their moxie so they got to be enganged for four quarters. I do not see them beating a Bo Nix led Oregon team as I think their depth and line play is questionable: 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAG 34,041 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Also all things consider, Colorado one 1 game last year. One game, roster turnover or not, let’s not act like folks on here deep down did not think this would happen this quick. They are 3-0 and in a spot to really make some noise if they beat Oregon. That’s damn amazing. It’s great for Colorado, it’s great for Deion and it’s great for minority coaches (yes I am going to freaking go there as a minority). This is also something else that was talked about throughout the week. The hatred that he is getting at times is BS. Pure, blank period. People upset because Colorado is getting media coverage ? Come on man, that’s just goofy stuff. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowebb11 9,459 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I loved the game last night. I’m so tired of everything in CFB being about Bama and UGA and Ohio St, etc…. I’m excited when underdogs and otherwise ‘have nots’ rise up to challenge status quo. Amidst the mess of NIL, transfer portal, and crazy conference realignments, last night was a reminder of how the great the actual game is. Exciting football. Disclaimer: my son recently graduated from CU and lives in Boulder, but he’s a biochemist and doesn’t even know who Prime is. 😅 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigger1985 818 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Didn’t care for Deion when he was at FSU. They got assisted by officials on so many no calls last night. As far as minority coaches DAG, why aren’t you pulling for CSU coach? And what happened to the story of promoting HUBC college players to the NFL? That went out the door when Colorado came calling and he abandoned Jax State. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are you assuming I am not pulling for the Colorado state coach ? You didn’t even know who the Colorado state coach was till last night. Do you know his wife is from Madison wisconsin, my stomping grounds? She is a cancer survivor and has spoken at Marquette a couple of times about it? He is one of the few minorities in college football and that is what made his comments about Deion even more confusing. Secondly, have you ever been to an HBCU? Do you know all Deion has done for the HBCU in his time there? He has done a s*** load for Jackson State. More than most people has ever done? You know how freaking poor and impoverished that community was and how much funding he bought to that school, not just for football but for the academic facilities that was vastly inferior and subpar to standards? I can talk about this all day. Edited September 17, 2023 by DAG 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t racist. It was perplexing, but not racist. Norvell also talked about how proud he was to be in this game with two AA HC’s coaching the two teams, it just isn’t attention grabbing like his comment about Deion’s apparel choices. With that being said, the next two weeks are probably going to humble Prime a bit. Its also looking like he is going to be without Travis Hunter. “Deion Sanders has had a lot of public critics. I’m not one of them,” Norvell said. “I really respect all head coaches and the sacrifices that they’ve had to make to become head coaches. I appreciate the path that they have to go through to get there. Especially African-American coaches. I was happy to see Deion get his opportunity. I had to wait a long time to get mine. “I’m really proud to represent CSU and play in this game. We have two African-American coaches representing the schools in this state. I think that’s very unique. It holds a lot of weight. I’m really proud to be a part of that. This game is special.” Edited September 17, 2023 by AEAugirl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
