#188 ASA PLAY ON 8* TCU -20 over Colorado, Saturday at 12 PM ET - There has been extreme hype regarding new Colorado head coach Deion Sanders but we feel the product on the field will come nowhere near the fan fare the Buffs have received in the offseason due to the coaching change. The fact is, Sanders cut bait with a vast majority of his CU players from last year and at one point in the spring they had only 20 scholarship players still on the team out of the 83 that were on Colorado last year. He’s had to scramble to fill spot with transfers and we expect the continuity early in the season to be an issue. Granted we have a number of new faces for Colorado, however they were brutal last year finish last in CFB in PPG margin and YPG margin. A huge jump will be tough for Sanders to pull off especially early in the season. These 2 met last season in Boulder and TCU rolled up a big 38-13 road win. Starting QB Morris was injured in that game and replaced by Max Duggan who went onto have a great season. Fact is, Morris beat out Duggan last year and is now back and 100% this season so we don’t expect a drop off at that key position. He has some top of the line offensive weapons to work with along with a solid offensive line. The defense returns 7 starters and let’s not forget this TCU team won 13 games last season and played in the National Championship game. That game, an embarrassing 65-7 loss to Georgia, gave this team some huge motivation in the offseason to come back and prove a point and that starts at home on Saturday. Someone who covers TCU closely told us that he feels this is one of the deeper teams they’ve had and definitely the most athletic in his 18 years of following the Frogs. With the temps pushing 100 degrees in Fort Worth on Saturday, depth will be a key and while TCU has a lot of it, Colorado has very little proven depth. We’ll lay the number here and expect TCU to win big.
