Rust and first-game jitters certainly played a role in Colorado’s lackluster 17-3 win against Colorado State on Friday in the season opener.
Yet, when CU offensive line coach Klayton Adams watched film of his group, he wasn’t interested in those excuses.
“To me, it’s just us not playing good enough,” Adams said. “That’s the way we look at it.
“I’m happy that we won, but I never want to play that way, and I don’t think the guys do either. They better buckle up this week, because we have to get a heck of a lot better.”
The shaky play of the offensive line was one of many things CU coaches took away from analyzing the film of Friday’s win.
It was a victory, but it wasn’t the greatest performance by the Buffs (1-0), who will host Texas State (1-0) on Saturday at Folsom Field in the home opener.
