  If you can navigate an F-150 around BoCo with a walking boot, Nate Landman figures, why can't you run with Texas A&M? "I actually drove with the boot on," the CU Buffs' star linebacker said Thursday with a puckish grin. "Which I was told not to do, but I did it anyway. It's tough. Sometimes you'd hit the brake and the gas at the same time." Landman's steering the CU bandwagon these days, and despite the Buffs coming off a COVID-trimmed 4-2 season in 2020 and the program's second bowl berth in 13 years, there's still plenty of room in the cabin. "Those preseason rankings and all that stuff, it's just on paper," Landman told The Post after CU wrapped up its first practice of preseason camp. "And I think even the teams that are perceived to be the top teams have to prove it, too … I think it's a 'prove-it' year every year."

Yeah, but for CU, this year, that whole prove-it hook sorta fits. The Buffs shocked and charmed us all last fall with that 4-0 start and a top 25 ranking, Cinderella in cleats, a ray of hope that broke through the clouds of COVID-19. The Buffs ran the ball like it was 1993 all over again. Until Landman tore his right Achilles tendon in the frigid home finale against the Utes, they'd managed to stop the run, too. Sure, the Alamo Bowl was a five-alarm dumpster fire. But that didn't change the fact that the road to San Antonio was made even more fun because nobody outside of Colorado Avenue saw them coming. - Denver Post
