Devils in the Details

Friends of the Buffaloes,

So sure, the Buffs performance on the field has been less than inspiring so far this season. Sure, we lost to Montana stat (Div. 1-AA) who went on to lose to Chadron State (Div 2). Sure, we lost to CSU, a middle-of-the-pack team from a mid-major conference. Fine. It sucks but it's part of the rebuilding prerequisite. We're at the bottom of the hill and have a long way to climb. It may be a tough season or two before the Buffs rise.

The ASU Sun Devils come to town Saturday with a #22 rating and a high octane offense. They won't be expecting much of a fight from downtrodden CU, will they? No, just another non-conference cream-puff before the real season starts.

Not so fast my friends! The Buffs aren't dead yet. They've got plenty of fight in them. And we're running the option now, baby, just like the glory days. Anything can happen. We've got nothing to lose now so expect to see Hawk and the boys take plenty of chances. It'll be interesting, it'll be exciting. Don't jump off of the bandwagon folks. We are Buffs and we will "never give in"!

And because I feel that I have not been doing my part thus far, I will be flying up from Argentina to attend Saturday's game. The tailgater will commence around 2 PM in the B-School lot. Bring some food to share, and plenty of beverages.

CU Saturday,
Buffalover
