    Take away the cupcake wins and we're a .500 team against anyone with a pulse.

    Well pretty interesting, including this season so far, remove urban from the years post spurrier florida is 116-75 (wins - loses), with a win % of .607 - ouch.

    Not sure of your point, but since we're going back in time. Go back to the decade of the 80s and Florida was 76-38 or .67%, not top tier but not exactly "ouch".

    Yep. He recruited better than anyone in the Sunbelt and ran the same outdated, uninspired, unimaginative, boring offense that he runs now and eked out wins because of superior players, something that he will not be able to do in the SEC.

    You mean actually wait to see what happens with the season before making a potentially catastrophic blunder?!

    Instant gratification and entitlement. This is the way.

    500 against decent teams does not sound horrible

    SOS is right that the week 1 result made Colorado instantly relevant...BUT, it wasn't over one of the best teams in the country and I think we'll see that by the end of the year. Whether Colorado can keep this relevance going is the question. If they get hammered by Nebraska at home, then all the hot air escapes out the window.

    I don't see it though. I don't think Nebraska can hang with the wide-open offense and obviously good offensive players that Colorado has. It will most likely be a high scoring affair and I recall Nebraska having a lot of difficulty scoring points the last several years (and last weekend).
