For this special episode, I am joined by Brad Geiger and Neil Langland, and we divide the podcast into two segments.
First, we take a look at “Black Friday” - August 4, 2023 - when the Pac-12, for all intents and purposes, ceased to exist. There were plenty of actors who played a role in the demise of the conference, but it wasn’t until the media deal offered to the schools was found wanting that the 108-year old conference fell apart. Who bears the brunt of the blame for the mass exodus? And who were the winners and the losers when the dust settled?
We then move back to talking about actual football. CU’s Fall Camp is underway, and we take a unit-by-unit look at the Buff defense, rating each unit as to whether it rates as being in the top half of the Pac-12 ... or the bottom half.
So ... Is there enough heft in CU’s interior defensive line to keep opposing offenses from running straight at the Buff defense? ... Is there enough speed and talent at the edge to wreak some havoc on opposing quarterbacks? ... Are CU star cornerbacks ready for prime time, or are they still a few games - or even a full season - away from being dominant? ... Is this the best back end CU’s defense has had since 2016?
Let’s find out...
