I'm so conflicted. It's critical the Big 12 has a successful season, but it goes against every fiber in my body to root for Deon tonight.

I know, when NDSU ripped off that huge play just now I was like...ugh we need the conference to do well but the way Deion has been such a baby with reporters is just beyond supporting them.

I think Colorado is going to be bad no matter what. You want the teams projected to finish in the top half of the conference to win their out of conference games, especially against the other power conferences.

I'm pretty neutral on how they do overall but it would be funny if NDSU beats them.

They appear to have their speed on the outside but that will get scouted and then it comes down to their OL.

Buffs definitely got some weapons at QB and receiver positions.

Everyone on CU looks small. Yes they are fast, but I don’t see them holding up well in the Big12.

That TD given up by NDSU was very un-NDSU by how disciplined they usually are in pursuit regardless of talent difference.

Looks like Colorado will have to try to outscore opponents this year. Their D's got some holes.
