Joe Milton 7/13 41 yards looks about the Joe Milton we know

New SEC rule this year: Tennessee gets a personal foul for running routes on the sidelines in order to protect the fans at the games from Joe Milton.

Yeah I get it with Hunter.

This kid is Chris Gamble to a heightened degree.

I see less elite CB and more inaccurate QB.
That drive is an easy 7 with better throws.
Hunter was beat twice, but QB sailed 3 passes.

So just kinda tuning in. Is Colorado kinda okay, or has TCU fallen all the way back to an average team in an average conference?

I was trying to look up Chris Gamble's snap count in 2002 and he was over 100 in six games.

Hunter is over 50 right now (I think) with three minutes left in the 2nd.

I remember Tressel saying Gamble didn't practice at times to save his legs (in 2002).

Yes.

No QB. No breakout WR. Different offense.

Colorado’s OL is far better than I think anyone anticipated, and TCU is not a team that can just reload when everyone from last years team is gone. Also the Buffs have been far more disciplined and mostly penalty free in the first half.

for sure, but they had generally gotten by on their defense in the past few seasons, so surprising to see what has been a super trash Colorado team putting up points at TCU.

They had 10 players drafted.
And TCU isn't exactly a "reload" destination.
But as we've got into 2nd half i start to feel momentum swinging.
TCU D has made adjustments. Their O has shot themselves in the foot, so it hasn't materialized on scoreboard at this point.
But if Deion doesn't make adjustments at halftime, thet could struggle for points in 2nd half... and TCU might find an identity on O in that time. Cuz CU defense looks bad.

 

[Bucklion]

CU defense folded like a tearoff paystub on that drive…tie game
