Baby Buff

Here's some filler masquerading as a preview for y'all.

One week from today, at 10:00 EST, the University of Colorado hosts Texas Christian University at historic Folsom Field in Boulder. In one of college football's coolest traditions, Ralphie VI will lead the Buffs onto the field. (Ralphie, it should be noted, is a juvenile female, 'cause male buffalo are big, strong, and ornery.)

As the video below will show, Ralphie is generally accompanied by Colorado's cheer team, who are then followed by the football squadron. A number of the cheerleaders carry large flags, as well. And as it turns out, my baby Buff will be one of those carrying a flag. Because she's strong as fuck - her sister calls her a tank.


The aforementioned season opener will be telecast on ESPN, so you all know what you'll be doing next Friday evening.

so this game kicks off at 8am MT? still cool as hell, but wtf with that start time

rob said...

yeah, weird scheduling. my guess is that espn told the school that they'd televise the game but only if the school accommodated espn's window.

Happy Birthday to Greg

I just called Greg to say Happy Birthday. He didn’t answer so I texted him. Still no answer.

I’m so psyched that Rob’s kid gets to run with Ralphie. One of the coolest traditions in CFB. I fucking loved those Darian Hagan/Eric Bienemy teams.

This is indeed much cooler than anything I did in college.
