ICYMI: Colorado Cancels Game With Fresno State

((ht: dailycamera.com))

For those of you that don't closely follow News stories, the flooding in Colorado this week, and in particular the Boulder area has been heart wrenching to watch.

At least 3 Dead, more than 100 missing, roads turned into rivers and countless homes and businesses flooded along with thousands evacuated from their homes.

It's been awful to watch.

And because of that, and the recovery and coping the Boulder area is currently going through, Colorado University cancelled their Saturday afternoon football game with Fresno State.

They had to.

The Buffalo's haven't been able to practice the past few days, their practice field flooded. Yes, the football stadium, which sits on higher ground, did not get flooded, but very few if any local residents...or visitors can get there.

Read much, much more about the decision from the Boulder Daily Camera RIGHT HERE

Yes, it was a bit surprising this decision wasn't made until Friday afternoon, the flooding has been wide spread since early Thursday morning.

But they did eventually make it. The thought of 60,000 or so trying to get into a town with few passible roads is inconceivable. The thought of 60-70 police officers being taken off of search and rescue and control of the town...well....let's just say the school made the right call.

No word yet on when...or if the game will be made up.

TWTW: The WTF Games- Cal Poly, Ball State, Fresno State

The Wyoming Cowboys dropped to 0-3 losing 24-22 to Cal Poly. Wyoming had to start Colby Kirkegaard for the first time, and it showed.

The Mustangs put up 208 rushing yards in the first quarter to just 44 total yards for the Cowboy offense. And, since the highlights seem to be at a premium, here's the Mustangs singing instead.

The HQ has no idea what has happened to Indiana since the unfortunate loss of Terry Hoeppner to brain cancer. He had the "Play 13" mentality installed, but since he's been gone- so has the mentality...

Ball State took out IU yesterday, and Hoosiers head coach Kevin Wilson had to explain how his team lost a 41-39 heartbreaker...
More MAC-tion for all of us...

And the last one the HQ will cover is the continuing downward spiral of Colorado University as they got blown out by Fresno State...

35-point first quarters will do that for you...

The 55 points is a Montain West record for a first half and Coach Embree still looks like his dog got kicked... again...

By the oklahoma State coaching staff's own admission, it was a poor night of everything- too many penalties (school record) and four turnovers for starters...

And very few people would have thought the 'Pokes would have given up 59 points to Rich Rod...
