All Mason Crosby, All the Time

Well My beloved Buffaloes went down again to Mid Major intrastate state. They like to call us a "rival" but everyone knows our rivals are in order

1. N for Nowledge
2. Oklahoma
3. Texas
4. Kansas State (Although, now that they suck again, less so)

And there is a HUGE fall off between 1 and 2. N for Nowledge is it.

But you will get no CU apologies here. This was the worst prepared and coached CU team I have seen and I lived through the Newweasel era.

CU's best quarterback by far didn't get a snap and Dan Hawkins managed to piss him off enough to get him to transfer.

Meanwhile Boise State rolls. Could it be we got the wrong Bronco?

I'm not panicking by any means I'll give him a couple of years to get his players (Although Gary Barnett managed to win 4 division titles with his players) he may be great in the long run. But right now this team is undisciplined and terribly prepared. Add to that ridiculous personnel decisions and play calling and you have a perfect storm. Hell we've been 0-5 before. Welcome back Chuck Fairbanks. And that's where we will be after to MO game.

So given the State of affairs in Buff land I'm starting a new campaign

All Crosby All The Time!

For those of you that don't know Mason Crosby is the Best kicker ever to play football - period. He will blast every kickoff through the uprights unless he wants to force a fair catch. Yes I said Fair catch on a Kickoff! He's done that!

Saturday he kicked a 61 yarder that cleared the uprights and sailed 7 rows deep at Invesco. For those of you struggling with the math that's roughly 85 yards. By a cruel twist of fate the Lambs had 12 men on the field and were granted a timeout just prior to the snap and it didn't count. He missed the retry - Wide not short. That's 1 of 2 from 61! Unbelievable. If you get a chance to watch CU TiVo it and fast forward to all the fieldgoals and kickoffs. Kid's worth the price of admission. Since he was a sophomore he's been a rock star on campus. A frikkin kicker! The crowd boos whenever CU punts from THEIR OWN 40.

Agents were ready for him to come out early because they thought he would be a first round pick. There was speculation he'd leave as a sophomore. A Kicker!

Given the terrible state of CU's offense. (The defense is very good,- Bless you Mike Hankowitz where ever you are) I have a new plan.

Here's my game plan. Whenever CU receives any kick or change of possession, they just trot out the freak with the howitzer right leg and kick a fieldgoal. Doesn't matter where! Betting we score more than 10 points ;-)

Editor's Note: In the future please keep all College Football comments confined to impressions of how awesome Mason Crosby is and comparative studys of how much your kicker sucks compared to Mason.

Fantasy Note: Drop your kicker this week and draft Crosby. take the zero for the year so you have rights next year. Yeah he's that good.

While there are those coming from my football tradition who insist that the future is now, I am not among them, and I have the following questions and observations:

1. Wait a minute. N IS for knowledge!

2. Will you still love me if I pull for N over, say, a certain red and gold team from Southern California one evening real soon?

3. Hook 'em.

4. Don't forget to watch me get my comeuppance on national television tonight, starting at about 5 PM your time.

I was in the presence of the Turtle vs Deliverance but had my back to it the entire time out of respect for you.

By the way is that where the word terpitude came from?
