I wasn’t able to watch the game because I was at a funeral. I’ve seen a lot of people blaming Shedeur for the loss. For those who did watch, what was your overall impression of what happened, beyond just the statistics?

The defense had 20 plus missed tackles and had Neal looking like Prime Adrian Peterson with 287 all purpose yards and 4 td’s. So, naw it wasn’t Sheduer fault. Sheduer had 3 TD’s and coaches chose to lose game how they normally do by not establishing a run game and having trash play calling.
Kansas won the same way Kansas State won pretty much. State of Kansas made hoes out of Colorado
I asked about shedeur because for some people he's the default reason CU loses. they would consider the lack of a running game and trash play calling his fault too.
I don’t think Kansas ever punted. That ain’t Shedeur’s fault

The motivation to finish strong was needed last week, they didn't have it.
This game is irrelevant as is their season.

The problem is Shedeur talks all that "legendary" this and "legendary" that talk. So, it's going to hit him when he can't beat the three teams that actually put up a fight against Colorado.
Also, he seems to control a fair number of the RPO plays and makes a number of adjustments at the line. Shurmur is almost more of a consultant than an offensive coordinator.
So, you saying the loss is on Sheduer even though Kansas scored on every drive?
Time of possession Kansas 40 minutes and Colorado 19. Naw this is defense
The loss is primarily on the defense. That’s the type of defensive performance that can get a DC fired. That’s how bad it was. It was embarrassing to watch.
For CU to win this game, their offense would have had to score every possession. Although their offense can be explosive, they’re way too flawed and stagnant at times to expect that. How much of that is on Shedeur? I don’t know, but he may have too much freedom to change plays, which can explain why the playcalling looks so bad at times. At one point, they chose to run the ball, at a critical point where they should have passed the ball. It was the exact same shyt they did against USC last year, and Shedeur admitted that he changed that play at the time. There’s no doubt in my mind he changed this play as well.
CU has been playing with fire on these slows starts. It was only a matter a time before a team took advantage of it.
I'm not saying it's "on Shedeur," I'm saying that he will catch blame because of his off-field comments and demeanor. Dude acts like he's some incredible college quarterback but hasn't really won a damn thing at that level.
They didn't put up points against Nebraska, and they often get off to slow starts.
Defense was a huge problem, but if Shedeur is "legendary" then give me a shoot out and make sure Colorado doesn't punt either.
