Colorado’s recent struggles

Colorado’s recent struggles
After a strong start to the season, Colorado has struggled as of late, losing four of their last six games. Nebraska, on the other hand, has been on a roll, winning seven of their last eight. So who will win when these two teams meet?

It’s tough to say. Colorado is clearly the better team on paper, but Nebraska has been playing better as of late. If I had to pick one team to win, I would probably go with Colorado, but it wouldn’t surprise me if Nebraska won either.

Nebraska’s offense

Nebraska’s offense is one of the most powerful in the country. They are averaging 52 points per game which is good for second in the nation. Their quarterback, Tommy Armstrong Jr., is a dual-threat that can hurt you with his arm or his legs. He has thrown for over 3,000 yards and 28 touchdowns this season, while also rushing for 705 yards and 10 touchdowns. He has a great group of receivers to throw to, led by Jordan Westerkamp, who has caught 54 passes for 986 yards and eight touchdowns. Nebraska also has a great rushing attack, led by Terrell Newby, who has rushed for 1,178 yards and 11 touchdowns on the season.

Colorado’s defense

This season, Colorado’s defense has been one of the best in the nation. They are currently ranked 5th in the nation in total defense, allowing an average of only 297 yards per game. They have also been very good against the run, only giving up 106 yards per game on the ground, which is 4th in the nation.

Nebraska’s special teams

Nebraska’s special teams will be the key to their success in this game. They have a strong kicking game and their punters are some of the best in the country. They also have a good return game. Colorado’s special teams are not as strong as Nebraska’s and this could be the difference in the game.

Colorado’s special teams

Nebraska’s season-opening loss to Colorado was a heartbreaker in many ways. The Cornhuskers had the lead late in the fourth quarter but a special teams mistake allowed the Buffaloes to score the go-ahead touchdown.

It was a tough way to start the season, but Nebraska will have to Bounce Back quickly if it wants to have any chance of winning the Big Ten West division.

Colorado’s special teams were the difference in the game, as they accounted for two touchdowns. Nebraska’s special teams, on the other hand, made several costly mistakes.

The first mistake came on a kick return early in the game. Nebraska’s returner muffed the catch, and Colorado recovered deep in Nebraska territory. The Buffaloes then scored a touchdown on their ensuing drive.

Later in the game, Nebraska was leading by three points and had just stopped Colorado on a 3rd down attempt near midfield. However, the Cornhuskers were called for roughing the punter, giving Colorado new life. The Buffaloes took advantage of their second chance, driving down the field and scoring a touchdown to take the lead.

If Nebraska wants to win the Big Ten West, it will need to shore up its special teams play. Against a team like Colorado, which has one of the best special teams units in the country, mistakes like those are simply too costly.

Intangibles

In sports, there are always “intangibles” that can’t be measured by statistics. They might be a team’s heart, desire, or will to win. But when it comes to the Nebraska Cornhuskers and the Colorado Buffaloes there is one intangible that looms large: history.

Prediction

It is hard to say who will win when Nebraska and Colorado play each other. Both teams are very good and have a lot of potential. Nebraska has a lot of experience, while Colorado has a lot of talent. Ultimately, it will come down to who wants it more.

Conclusion

In conclusion, it is impossible to say who will definitively win the border war between Nebraska and Colorado. However, it seems likely that Nebraska has the advantage, due to its superior location and resources. Colorado may have a few tricks up its sleeve, but it is doubtful that these will be enough to overcome Nebraska’s superior momentum.
