And you all thought I was ridiculous for putting $100 down on the Colorado Buffalos winning Super Bowl LIX.

This isn't a slight at you, Viper. Just hilarious they think he's better.

The Buffs went 1-8 in conference the year before Deion and then he repeated that pathetic record. Deion has excuses why he couldn't win in the Pac12 but I'm sure the previous coach had his excuses as well.

This season will be about positioning Shedeur for the Heisman/high draft pick. Winning will be secondary and I hope Buff fans are ok with that.

To think Deon accomplished this at a HWCU.

Surprised there has been no mention of Shilo declaring bankruptcy over the $11M he owes the security guard he beat the shit out of.

They didnt even have food at CU until Deion Sanders got there.

This reminds me of the time I heard Gary Danielson say during a game that Tim fucking Tebow was the best running QB he had ever seen - about 18 months after the 2006 Rose Bowl. It was astounding. 

Ive mentioned it on here before, but back in 1992 Sally Jenkins said that the Washington Huskies could be some NFL teams.  What a clown.

I'm not gambling expert, but I've heard the term "smart money " , and this is not what that term refers to

To be fair, 1992 was the year that the Seahawks were riding the Gelbaugh/Stouffer/McGwire troika at QB to a 2-14 record, so that's kind of an understandable take.

Hyperbole or not, I don't give a shit how great a college team is, they're losing by 5 TD's minimum to the worst NFL team, and that's being generous. 

The Buffs’ first concern should be the Bison. NDSU’s potential win versus them wouldn’t be their 1st win vs a P-5 team.

If Colorado loses that game, I don’t think they’ll win enough to be bowl eligible and they won’t go >.500 in the B12.

Hook’em!!!

This X1000.  Even the shittiest NFL team is still a college all-star team.

I've never thought about it this way, and it is spot on.

The thing on those bets is you can't bet against CU winning the b12 or making the playoff.  Cuz those odds would be like -1,000,000 and expose how bad those +3000 or +20000 odds really are.

Often repeated fiction from Horns fan days.   The old college all-star game would be a hastily slapped together team of rookie stars up against the Super Bowl winners (or sometimes the losers).  Out of 42 games played only once did the pros beat the college all-stars by 5 TDs (likely a second time if the last game wasn't called early due to weather).    Let that sink, in, the college players had 2 weeks to form a team and learn to work with one another paired with a coach that had 2 weeks to prepare to play against a professional team that was established, experienced, that was the best in the league for that year.  

That the college players ever won at all was impressive with all of the odds stacked against them.

The game was played from 1934-1976. Not many games during that period even featured 5 TDs total and college ball was superior in the early years. The college team never won in the Super Bowl era and had a .238 overall winning percentage. 
 

Today’s NFL veterans would destroy a team of college kids. The Chiefs would likely win by a minimum of 5 TDs.

And the pro team, not really giving a shit and probably not being well-compensated, I'm sure gave their full effort. 

Once people lock on to a cult of personality they just become too stupid to let go no matter how obvious it is they are wrong. We've seen a lot of that first hand in other arenas...

Already using the SEC "Georgia" excuse for their loss to Texas.

The problem was always that it was the BEST of the NFL against a haphazard team slapped together.   This would be like comparing a Pro-bowl team vs. the Chiefs with Jeff Fisher as the coach.

Back when NFL players had to have real jobs during the off-season. Keep being you, though.

Ricky was asked one time about the difference between college and pro defenses and he said something like the worst player on the opposing defense was the best player in his conference in college.

And it's a damn shame, too, because I'd be a billionaire by now shorting aggy odds.

I seem to remember the last game being called short because it started raining so hard the field flooded.

I read somewhere that the Nigerian scam emails are intentionally unprofessional and loaded with typos to filter out a lot of the people with a working brain stem thereby letting the scammers work on the idiots more likely to fall for it.

I think casinos are using the CU winning a national championship bet in the same way.  Anyone that places that bet is getting loads of free plays and anything else to keep them betting at that particular sports book.
