Not only do the Cowboys NEED to win...

I don't sense the fan base is all that enthusiastic about the upcoming season, but I do sense that the opening game has never had more significance in determining the temperature and climate for the program.

This is the sense I get too. There is very little belief in the program right now and the fanbase is in "prove it" mode. A loss to CSU to open the season will cause a lot of people to tune out for the remainder of the season.

I don't think Jay Sawvel really understands that. I get the feeling he is hoping to cobble together 6-7 wins against the likes of Northern Colorado, NIU, and UTEP and proclaim "progress".
 
To be honest, I'm fearful of it turning into that ASU game. Hopeful that the new OC and players turn out great, and we are wildly impressed. Hearing Sawful on 1240 yesterday and last year, I'm still trying to understand what kind of program he thinks he inherited compared to what Bohl or Glenn walked into.
 
Frickin' SeeEssEwe is going to be amped. New conference. New coach. We are going to get raced. Our staff has literally NO CLUE what it is doing. I hope I am wrong, but I don't think I am. I have no faith is Sawfull. I'm Missouri...Show Me!
 
The early line on the game is csewe +3.5. Frankly, that's a lot closer than I expected. I would be surprised if Mora doesn't turn them around right away. And we have a lot of question marks. I can't shake the feeling that even if you gave Sawvel the keys to a Ferrari, he'd still lose in a race with a Prius. Thanks Tom!
 
I have seen nothing from CSU in the last 10 years that tells me a new coach will fix them, much like our program. Somehow Sawvel beat them 28-0. I do trust their head coach more than ours.

Didn't score in the last 3 quarters against San Diego St in a 24-7 loss.
Never found the end zone in a 24-3 loss to Fresno.
Put up 7 on Josh Allen Day in a 13-7 loss to Nevada.
Could only muster a pick 6 by the defense in a 27-7 loss to Hawaii.

The bad choice Svoboda pass play at AFA and the home game no show #17 retirement game against Nevada removed the possibility of a 6-6 season.

As a fan that sucks and it is a huge reason why it is challenging to be enthusiastic about Cowboy football. I want to be excited but just can’t seem to want to make plans to attend a game since nearly every game is a 1,000+ mile road trip for me still feeling the bitter taste of losing 5 of the last 6 games of 2025.
