Good Game Clones, nothing to be ashamed of today. You took the #7 team to the wire and could have beaten them.
I guess this evens the score, Back up QBs were the key to the last two games.

Nice play calling under normal conditions, not when the wind is as bad as it was. So frustrating.
Kudos to the team..that hurts...BAD. I personally don't make that call going into the wind with a guy who hasn't thrown a pass. BUT I can't really argue with it...obviously was a perfect call, just the execution failed. Frustrating yes, but the coach has balls...keeps the pedal to the metal.
Cant be angry at anyone. But man am I sad. Any speed on that pass and its a win.
Still great game by a great team. This season has been unbelievable.

I love everything about this game. NO SHAME in losing this game, this is a game well fought and we did everything possible to win. I blame the wind.
And with 40 seconds and 3 time outs remaining, I would definitely take a kneee knowing Mahoney missed 2 field goals and we have had a series of fumbles + turn overs.
GREAT GAME!

Gutsy call, this is playing to win.
Now, for the question that was asked after the Utah and OU games...which is better? The blowout loss or the gut-wrenching loss? We've had both, and I think I much prefer this game to the OU game.
Good effort out of our boys. Take it to the Buffs the way they took it to the Skers and we are bowl-eligible after next weekend.

I like the call to go for it at the end, but I would have preferred Arnaud be the guy who executed it. Damn it sucks to lose this one.
Played to win, sometimes that has not been the case I have felt in previous years. I feel horrible though, great effort by our guys. Team really played well, came back when it looked bad, that doesn't happen a lot either. Great game, damn....just a shame....
Lot of positives...damn, so close...

I'd have gone for it. In fact, as soon as we won the toss I said if they score a touchdown, we need to go for two if we get the answering TD. I don't know if I'd have done it on a fg fake the way our offense was playing the last quarter, but I still would have gone for it. Gutsy call that didn't work. Still a really good game by our team, and they just need to regroup and go kick some heads in at Boulder next week. We NEED that game next week, as I still see Mizzou as an incredibly difficult game to win.
