I'm not sure, however, that these games vs. FCS teams are counted in those stats.
They are; which also used to be a point of contention for the stats and rankings differences between the SEC and PAC as we played the extra conf game while they usually played another low mid-major at best at home. Fortunately we at least begin and end our regular season against FCS schools!

This defense has way more talent than that 2015 Colorado unit.

Does anybody have any inside knowledge on Scott Pagano and Malik Young? Could either one of them see the field this weekend? Was hoping to at least see Young in some garbage time last weekend. Also, what about Robinson and Breeze? We're thin at safety right now, and with Williams in a boot right now, we need them back this weekend.

I don't expect to see Pagano or Robinson for another game or two. I'm hoping Young plays, but no one has said for sure, and I've also heard nothing on how Breeze is doing.
