SIAP: Colorado starting WR likely out for season with torn ACL

Those kids work so hard all year and then get hurt right before the season. That will hurt the Buffs. not many weapons as it is.

whenever I hear about the Buffs, I think about Eric "sleeping with" Bieniemy...I erased the other memory from the Matrix.

I would always rather play a team that is at 100% with its roster...

That really sucks. Hopefully recovers well. Honestly want those non-con opponents to be at their best. Gives the team better reap before the B1G season.

That sucks. Always hate to hear about a kid putting in all of the work only to miss the entire season.

That said, I find it silly when so many on here say "I would rather beat them at their best." I never wish for injuries, but when we face another team, I want to (1) minimize any upset risk (never forget the Horror), and (2) win by as many points as possible. If we really are a playoff contender, nobody is going to sit there in the rankings committee going over our resume saying , "yeah, they beat Colorado by 78, but Colorado didn't have one of their starting receivers." They could, however, if it is a close call, say, "they really struggled at home and only won on a last minute field goal against a 5-7 Colorado team" Obviously, I don't think one player is likely to impact the result of this particular game, but I am all about maximizing our odds of going all the way in every possible way.

Note: I am obviously not wishing for injuries to opponents, not am to happy to hear about a kid losing a season. Just saying that I disagree with a sentiment commonly expressed here about wanting to face teams that are at their best.

Looks like Notre Dame had a bad night, must've just broke camp...didn't take long for arrests to follow

Although, does this mean we have a shot to beat them now?

I feel bad for Jourdan Lewis.

He was already going to play the game with one arm tied behind his back.

Now he's going to have to wear an eye patch as well.
