Hey Matt, I'm an Arizona fan and I TRULY appreciate all the love you have been showing us this season. We definitely didn't play our A game today and we still won so I will definitely take it. I think if we played our best, we would blow Colorado out by at least 2 scores. Once again thank you for all the love you've been showing us and Bear Down!
Matt, as an Alabama fan you have been witness to great football seemingly forever. I, as a Buffs fan from way back, remember the past success, of which my memory had to remain quite clear to allow me to remain faithful for these many years of suffering thru terrible football in pursuit of irrelevance. I do see great improvement, and the final score at this point in the process isn't the only measuring stick to me. Transformation of mentality, winning attitude, coaching proficiency and just plain ole effort, I see growing every week. This was the best game of the season, even though not a win. A true confidence booster to this Buffs loyalist. Thanks for the honesty, critical eye, and keen observation.
Arizona fan, Colorado played great for what they’re working with. Explosive special teams plays kept it close. They would have won if they could’ve stopped Coleman since our defense didn’t play it’s best game. 🐻⬇️!
Come on Matt. Arizona didn't play their A game? Isn't every loss a result of one team not playing their A game, and doesn't the team playing against them not have something to do with them 'not playing their A game?"
@@bigbell7866I was watching the game on the TV. Compared to their previous games Arizona didn’t play their A game. Don’t know why you think being at the game makes your opinion any more relevant
Colorado played the field position game extremely well. When they were stopped the punter did a fantastic job of pinning Arizona deep in their own territory. The defense stepped up in these situations and forced Arizona to punt from deep within their own territory to give the CU offense great field position. The biggest difference between these two teams today was the running game. 207 vs 77 rushing yards in Arizonas favor. This was a very very even game in all aspects except the two I’ve mentioned (rushing attack and field position)
Oh ok, Arizona wins the game and all of a sudden they overrated af, but Colorado *LOSES* the game and all they are is lacking a proper oline. Overrated teams don’t stay winning games, just look at Colorado at the beginning of the season 😂
Hey a simple question needs a simple answer from you. If Arizona is overrated like you claim, they went on the road to SEC country to play Mississippi State ( you can say whatever about Mississippi State they still have a SEC Defense which is hard for a non SEC team to beat a SEC ) Arizona starting quarterback named Jayden DeLaura threw four interceptions in the first half and Arizona went to overtime and lost 31 to 24 Washington has Micheal Penix Jr and he could not throw a passing touchdown on Arizona’s defense Caleb Williams will be the first quarterback in the NFL draft and he threw one touchdown on Arizona’s defense and Arizona lost to two points in triple overtime to USC Cam Ward for Washington State invited Arizona to play him on his home field and Cam Ward did not throw a pass touchdown against Arizona’s defense and Arizona beat Washington State by 30 something points UCLA has the best defense in the PAC 12 and beat Colorado and Arizona beat UCLA by 17 points and never trailed in the UCLA Arizona game Now let’s get to this Colorado game Colorado special teams deserve NIL deals They were the main reason that the Buffs had three touchdowns on short field and Arizona defense was at a great disadvantage Due to the short field Moving forward Arizona held the Buffs to under 100 rushing yards and Shedeur Sanders was like 7.5 yards average a completed pass So the game is not what you think it was Shedeur did not have a great game against Arizona’s defense Moving forward Noah Fifita had about six yards a pass completion and the same two touchdowns that Shedeur had So please explain how is the Arizona Wildcats overrated in 2023 I will be your huckleberry I got time today and receipts You can not just think your opinion is facts
Should’ve lost the game? It was a one possession game the entire way through lol Colorado just couldn’t put them away even with the amount of crazy field position they were getting.
The Deion Cult at this point after early in the season saying CO would be 10-2 fighting for a PAC 12 title and a major bowl ....to now losing 6 of their last 7 games... is now resigned to saying Deion is great because they won 4 games and last year CO won 1. 🙄 The COMEDY with that is 2021 CO won 4 games but do they say Dirrell was great for winning 4 games then???
That’s part of the process 4-8/5-7 is a huge step in the right direction for the program all these delusional fans just coming back to reality ain’t nothing wrong with that
Going 4-8 isn’t bad for a team in their rebuilding phase. Colorado ceiling this season was to get over 1 win and they’ve done that. People added on more due to the early hype.
@@joemother1098 ...4/8 or 5/7 this season is not a huge step in the right direction. A minor step at best.... especially with all the Deion hype and the massive # of transfers. A huge step would've been going from winning only 1 game to making even a minor bowl game with at least 6 wins to go at least .500.
@@klondor7432 ....so you really think CO went after and brought in Deion, those coordinators, and that amount of transfers and would've been happy if they only won 2 games??? You think they are happy with 4 wins? There's no way going into the season they set the bar for a successful season as low as 2 or 4 wins. A measurable bar of success was 6 wins and making a bowl. Then next year look to get 8-10 wins and a major bowl.
I spoke to a scout last week and he said the NFL likes shadeur arm but they are very disappointed he taps the ball before he throws. That is a huge red flag, it caused Garapollo to drop in draft. I played for Bill Parcells and he would never draft a QB that did that and if he happen to inherit one he would cuz they ass out until they quit or fixed it. #2 has to stop tapping the ball on his throws. Safeties corners and linebackers in The league will get clean breaks on his balls
@@nenevz2948 You would think but it’s year 3 and it’s still not fixed. It’s actually pretty hard to change. It similar to a pitcher changing from a submarine thrower to an over the top thrower. It’s possible that he lose accuracy or velocity.
Arizona has more talent than Colorado. Colorado cant stop the run that is the reason they lost. The only reason the game was close because #2 for Colorado is spectacular.........
Matt, as much as you rag on the Colorado defense, you seem to have missed the fact that they have improved. They now rank 119th, which is ahead of both Stanford and USC. (They used to be 131st.) They rank 38th in sacks per game, just 1/10th of a point behind Florida State and ahead of both Texas and Michigan. They rank 10th in the nation in takeaways. Yes, they are struggling on defense, but they have made progress and continue to improve. Today was a good example of it. You circled the 34 and said you can't win games giving up that many points. What about 31? That's how many Arizona gave up. In the end, they lost, but they played well, and they showed improvement.
Matt truly be great. Congratulations on 300k. You really deserve it and more...did you get a real basketball for the shot of the day yet? And don't think I didn't see that tree in the last video...my man be killing it. #MattBeReal
Matt, your logic changes from video to video. It’s truly unbelievable. Anyone can watch your old videos and see your analysis before and after games. To say Colorado is trash/suck is a terrible statement without any research/evidence behind it. They have played more ranked teams than every single team currently in the top 25 (not including the pac 12 teams). No one with half a brain believed Coach prime and buffalos would be in the college football playoffs; at best anyone who supported Deon with half of a brain thought they would at best reach a bowl game. Every game they have lost has been close. Does that not say anything about this team and the level of a talent? Losing close games does not tell me or anyone else that really understands and watches football that they are trash as you mentioned in your previous video.
Matt’s assessments are ridiculous when it comes to Colorado. They have played every team close except Oregon. Every team is giving up massive points, but yet Colorado sucks. At this point you are talking about Colorado to keep your channel numbers up, but listening to you completely dog this team that’s made massive improvements is ridiculous.
Come on Matt! Colorado defense played very good in the first half and was getting 3 and outs. The offense complimented them also. Arizona opposing offenses average 20 points a game and Colorado put up 31 and missed a go ahead field goal with a few minutes left. Colorado was winning for most of the game because their offense was back clicking and their defense got stops. I watch every play of that game and both teams made fantastic plays but Colorado don’t have the pass rushers yet to shut down drives. They will be much better next year. Also shedeur had a 20 yard rushing TD.
You be hating bro I ain’t gone lie you contradict yourself a lot lol like when it comes to teams you don’t care for and one min if it’s any other team that lost you’ll say they played good against a team you don’t like but when it’s Colorado it’s always oh just the other team played bad so Colorado gets zero credit for damn near beating this team you called good the only reason Colorado lost is because of bad decision making but on that field to me they was the better team just can’t get there act together but you bragged about how Arizona barley lost to all the other teams and how that counts but when it comes to Colorado barely losing that shit don’t matter smh Ps it’s all love bro I’m just being real lol
Love your attention to my Buffs, but this video makes it obvious that you determine the effort and progress of Colorado simply by the final score and stats. Colorado was not out played by a very good Arizona team. Yep, they gave up some big plays and need more talent, but the score and stats are far from indicative of the game played.
Matt how is poor defense Coach Deion fault? The man isn’t on the field of play competing with pads on. Individual players have to look into the mirror, and be honest with themselves. Matt is a Prime Time fanboy one minute the next wanting to play the blame game. Colorado loses by 3 it’s Arizona didn’t play their best. Colorado made the game competitive, and with their hurdles that’s impressive.
My opinion so don’t kill me for it… everyone was crying for them to start cromoni which they did he did great In coverage…. But his talkings was real bad on run plays … on all the run plays if he would of wrapped up instead of hitting with his eyes closed probably would’ve won… if u go back and look at all the big runs cromoni was perfect in getting thr but wiff or just got brush off… even on that last drive he missed 2 tackles in 1 play for that big run gain… he needs to hit weight room in off season for run game
Hey Matt, I’m not sure if you noticed in the Georgia old miss game but Brock Bowers is already back I’m assuming you’re already watching the game and can see that with your own eyes
Deion cut over 80 percent of his team. And he will definitely do the same this upcoming spring...Deion will be gone after 2024 season after his 2 sons and 2 adopted sons (travis hunter and silmon craig) leaves...i am the only person on RU-vid who has pointed this out, that nothing about Colorado is long term.
Man quit capping you made a whole video about how Colorado would get demolished and the game went down to the wire. You want to say Arizona didn't play their best but at what point do you give Colorado credit for that? This is not the first ranked team that Colorado had a close game with. They only got demolished by 1 team the whole season. Are they world beaters no but they're not as bad as you're making them out to be either. You say the defense got worse but the defense held them under their average points allowed. The offense has looked better, the offensive line has even looked better. They gave up 3 sacks yesterday which is a lot less than what they've been doing. They cleaned up their slow starts in the first half as they were winning at the half yesterday against almighty Arizona. This team is getting better Matt. You're clowning bro
UofA fan. I would say both things are true, felt like your team rose to the occasion. But we played uncharacteristically bad in several areas and I could just leave it at our punt team. Blessed you with avg 37 yard line to start drives. We were poor in a few other ways compared to previous games. Y’all are on your way.
Here's why I don't think Colorado will be better next year. What is the main excuse everyone has given Colorado this year? This is the first year with everyone in the transfer portal so they aren't in sync. True but Deion has said that hes going to get rid of everyone that was terrible and go get new players from the transfer portal like new lineman; essentially replacing the o line and defense. Now your back to square one and everyone that you acquired from the transfer portal. But in your 2nd year you don't have the excuse of everyone is new. Get players from transfer portal -> get rid of them -> replace them ->start back at square one -> repeat.
I have disagree I feel everyone think Dion Sanders doesn’t know what he’s doing this year I feel like he exceeded expectations no one had them winning any more than one game this year I think he will attack the transfer portal a little bit different like actually get guys who’s going to contribute some guys he got out the portal. We’re extra bodies. We have to remember Travis, Hunter, and Sándor sanders is coming back next year, including their starting. G Tyler brown my only concern is adding more pieces to the defense. They need to get bigger upfront on both sides.
Colorado just isn't there yet, and they won't get there until Prom Tom (Prime Time pronounced in Matt Be Great's accent) starts recruiting and signing big-boy-football players and not the little dudes he was used to playing in the little-boy Jackson State league.
Hey Matt, I like your channel for the most part. It’s definitely entertaining. You are say the defense sucks and that you watched the game. It seems like you switch back and forth on which coach to blame. If you watched the games you would definitely know that the defense is much improved. The stat box does not tell the whole story, yet you appear to base your opinion primarily on the stats. Once upon a time I coached college football, well for 14 years of my young adult life. There is zero doubt this team has improved week after week. To blame the coaches for there lack of success to me is somewhat silly. Have they or any coach called the perfect game this year? Probably not. The bottom line is their roster is not on par with the teams they have played this year. Your a football guy and played the game in middle/highschool. How many plays did your coach have that where not designed to score? A basic trap or dove play if executed should “technically” score a touch down every time if our players win the one on one battle at every position. I feel sorry for the guys on the side lines that put in hours that most people can’t even begin to understand. They know the game soooo much more in depth then any of the people critiquing them online. An old football adage is it ain’t the X’s and O’s but the Jimmies and Joes. You should know this. Don’t be one of those guys trying to put coaches on the hot seat and firing up fans that don’t know squat about the game. I believe Coach Kelly called an awesome game! I think this staff deserves a ton of recognition. If they can get more of the right guys in and build their depth they will be much improved in the years to come. Just my 2 cents!
You spoke bad about Colorado because that's when those subscribers go up. Colorado played a good game against Arizona. This team has only been together as a team for a few months and played several ranked teams. I think that the Buffs have improved on many levels and will be better next season. You criticized them badly so that you will get more subscribers. Those that get it, get it!
Yall not talking about the flags that cost both teams.. more for Colorado because it was a bunch of huge stops that but the stupid penalties… Colorado could of won this game tbh Refs clearly were on Arizona on side and seem like that for the whole season
Matt, did you see the fumble by KY and Bama recovered but they hurried up, even the refs to stop the replay from being shown upstairs? I have heard no one mention it, probably because we won anyway. It did mess with our statistics. I watched the games yesterday and we definitely have a tougher schedule than the top four had. I just get tired of these trans blaming the refs for when they lose, when it is obvious that is not the case!
Hold him accountable for them needing more talent ? That’s going to be addressed. This is year one! The defense hasn’t gotten worst. Every team they scored over 30. Not only that defense has gotten better. They’re not perfect but getting better
Exactly. It's like they're constantly ready to put their defense back out. These punts on 4th and 1 when they're a little pass the 50 constantly blows my mind. Give your ballers as many chances to score as possible. Especially when the game is close. And the defense gets exhausted. They play well early on in the game
@@90gdv No. Their 44. If we’re pass the 50 and there’s only 1 yard, go for it. The “what ifs” really don’t matter. 1 yard for another 4 more chances with Shedeur is much better than the defense having to control the situation against a team that has the momentum
Ngl this video is not it. You can't make excuses for UA saying they weren't playing their A game when CU hasn't been playing their A game for the past 2 games and nobody said anything. Also, when CU def was doing good with all the FF you didn't give them credit at least saying they're somewhat stepped up while the o line wasn't showing up, and now you say where's the accountability from Coach D when this whole time he has been and telling us where him and his team needs to improve in
No Matt! You are wrong. The defense isn't great and about that you are right, but getting worse, NOPE! We are far from being Georgia, but even further from being Colorado in 2022. Sometimes you need look at trajectory rather than point of present condition. Time to focus on your Crimson Tide, and watch with all of us as we rise through the ranks. Next stop. recruiting to even the talent level playing feld.
Yeah but that was with Jayden de Laura starting. Fifita took over in the 4th Q of that game. Fifita starts the whole game UA beats Stanford by at least 14.
Perhaps so, but we'll never know. Stanford, the program with the least number of inbound portal transfers, an FCS coach and the most inexperienced roster in all the Power 5. Is gonna finish ahead of Colorado in PAC PLAY. Colorado has the most number of portal transfer in FBS
I don’t know much about recruiting. Does Colorado have top recruits on the O line and D line? It was an interesting thing for Coach Prime to bring a bunch of HBCU players to this D1 school. He needs to recruit like everyone else does and go find him some young players.
Welp. Go look at my comment history. I told you good ole folks that Shaduer plays down to the competition. I saw him play 8 games in person. One being Division 2 Delta State and he struggled. I said until Coach Prime gets Oline And Dline they will suck. Guess what...they suck
Matt be great doesn’t really know anything about football lol bro just tryna use the hot take skip Bayless method now lucky your white lol it might work
For a team like Alabama the score is all that matters, but a team like Colorado in major transformation in year one, the final score is far from ll that Matt-ers.
