Colorado's nonconference schedule never does the Buffs any favors, and it seems the school doesn't particularly care. This week, CU announced deals with LSU, Utah and Oregon. The school's financial problems have been well-publicized, which might explain its aversion to hosting guarantee games (that, and the loss to Montana State), but it's tough enough to dig out of an 0-3 hole. It's even tougher when this week's opponent is Georgia. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/columns/story?columnist=revsine_dave&id=2597661 I just found this, has anybody here heard of this?
Well, when UGA scheduled CU years back, the Bulldogs were hoping to have a bonafide opponent--the same way we scheduled Arizona....Only the 2 teams UGA and LSU respectively found come gametime, are nothing more but two high profile cupcakes. :shock: Maybe by the time Colorado visits Baton Rouge, the Buffalos can get their act together to give us a decent RPI ranking???
No, Notre Dame played at Tiger Stadium in 97. LSU went there in 98. I've been hearing about a possible home-and-home with Colorado for a few years now. I did my college internship in Denver (lived in Boulder) and one TV guy told me Colorado schedules tough opponents partly to compete for exposure/airtime with the Broncos. It rarely works. Boulder's a very nice town. The stadium's okay. I wouldn't mind making the trip.
It was in the Advocate. We are playing NC State too http://www.2theadvocate.com/sports/lsu/3935556.html
Speaking of Colorado, the Buffs are dominating Georgia 10-0 late in the 1st half right now. Imagine what Bama will do to them this year in Atlanta if Georgia can't even beat a mediocre big 12 team.
Bama has a game against Georgia in Alanta this year? I didn't know we had a 5th place SEC game BEFORE the SEC championship?
