I don't think you guys tried to run up the score but quite frankly I don't care if you did. This is college football, not tiddlywinks. If you're unhappy about the score being run up, man up and do something about it. I actually think not running up the score is patronizing to the losing team and boring for the fans who paid good money to attend the game.

Side note: Thank you for destroying us and getting everyone united behind firing that fraud of a coach Dan Hawkins. We're Colorado and we'll be back. The sooner that arrogant clown is gone, the sooner we'll be back.

Thank You, that dude should've been gone last year in the middle of the season.

"This is college football, not tiddlywinks."

Does this mean I can no longer run up the score, woof and strut in tiddlywinks???

I'm guessing most don't feel that way, but for those that do I think its a hard case to make when:

1. Your coach pathetically leaves the starters in passing the ball in the last minute of the game trying to get a meaningless touchdown

2. Said starters take the opportunity to run the ball into the flat, find your assitant coach's son, hand him the ball, point at the endzone 80 yards away and tell him to have a nice run.

Man Up! People who complain about running up the score suck! When Cal is losing I do not get upset, because the other school is running up the score i am mad, because more than likely the team quit.

---

Man up? Is that what they call running up the score these days? I guess I grew up in an era when sportsmanship still meant something and "I'm the greatest" was actually hubris.

I feel your pain. It was not that long ago that Cal had its own "bottom of the barrel" season. Better luck next time; BUT not against Cal.

I hate parents who complain about the other team beating the hell out of their kids because their kids team sucks. If you can't take the beating, go play another sport.

Ok kiddo, I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.

I can't wait for the day when the Bears don't score too many points, or score too few points, but score exactly the right amount of points so no one can complain.

It will be glorious!

Why give a damn about what the loser thinks? if we are getting our arses handed to us then we deserve to have the score ran up on us.

You can't ask the 2nd team players to play with a lowered intensity. These guys relish their play time and impressing with their on field performance is how they move up or establish themselves for next year.

Secondly, it's sort of hard to argue with the fact, yes that's a FACT, that the only reason Cal jumped 10-odd places in the coaches-USA Today poll is because we blew out another BCS school. Cal wins 24-21 and we'd still be somewhere in the section of "Others receiving votes".

Lastly, shouldn't the Buff fans save their ire for when an opponent continues piling on like mad when they are up 40? For example in late October when they play at Norman? Does ANYONE doubt this will occur? We're talking about Oklahoma who was taking time outs in the 4th quarter when they were up 44-10 vs. Florida State so they could get in another field goal. Do you think the Okies are going to go easy on Colorado, aka the ones deserting the Little12?

We should throw these yokels out ot the conference. Let them play Baylor if they want competitiveness.

I was actually agreeing whith your sentiment. Maybe my sarcasm didn't come through.

We might have legit reasons to play Riley and throw bombs in the 4th Quarter while leading by 30 points, but we can't blame our victims for looking at it as running up the score. These were things Tedford didn't do in the past.

---

It's quite simple. If you are a BCS team and you are worried about another team running up the score -- too bad.
IT'S DIVISION 1 FOOTBALL! IT's THE BIG 12!! THIS ISN't INTERMURAL FOOTBALL!

So "some" is now down to just one alleged angry individual, whose post is somehow inaccessible on your work computer? Hmm.... :confused:









j/k. Don't be mad. :gobears:
