Sanders isn't the mobile threat. He can huck it. But, has got hit & sacked a ton by mediocre defenses. He actually looks timid against pressure.
With zero run game and weak run D, and no depth they're in for a rude Pac12 awakening. Oregon, SC, ASU, Stanford, UCLA before OSU.

Good thing the Huskers fired Coach Riley. That’s really panning out for them. Or Solich that matter. First and foremost. Pellini too, noting he was a first class A-hole and not a good representative of the U. MR did nothing to improve the Huskers and then Frost took them further into the toilet. Riley did a dang good job of switching Nebraska's offensive and defensive system in 2 years. 2 bowl games, 9 and 4 in year 2 playing a pro-style passing offense with a wishbone QB, a top 35 scoring defense and rising recruiting rankings in the early fall of year 3 (https://huskercorner.com/2017/02/04/nebraska-football-recruiting-comparing-2016-2017-recruiting-classes/) Nebraska's AD stepped in and fired Banker and hired Diaco. Year 3 Nebraska's offensive yards per play actually went up with a new passing QB, but the Defense was HORRIBLE... ranked 116th in the FBS. The blame for Nebraska's performance falls flatly in the AD's lap.

Sanders most likely has the ability to run but that's not a priority for the Colorado offense. He does seem to value going through his options while in the pocket which has resulted in a few sacks. My guess is he is not yet used to how much pressure he is now getting out of defensive fronts. But generally he makes a read and gets the ball out quickly and accurately. It helps when your receivers are getting open consistently and often early in their routes.

Yeah, TCU's seems pretty bad. Or at least below average. I'm not convinced Nebraska's D sucks. The offense is hot garbage, which can kill a defense pretty easily.

Their total wins over/under is at 5 as of last Tuesday. After CSU it’s going to be tough sledding. Vegas knows… And that was a really bad Nebraska team. Surprised they didn’t look for a transfer portal QB at halftime
