Game predictions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sean Keeler, sports columnist:<\/strong> I’d love to buy into Rece Davis’ little narrative that CSU coach Jay Norvell is just being sly like his old mentor, Hayden Fry, in trying to amp up his Rammies for a Rocky Mountain Showdown that, on paper, that shouldn’t be a game. That still doesn’t make it a good idea, especially with CU pretty much emotionally having things on auto-pilot for most of the week … until Thursday. We’ve had one shoving match already. This has the smell of an ugly game and a long, long night. But some great TV. Potentially. CU 52, CSU 17.<\/p>\n
