Brooks (Contributing Editor/CUBuffs.com), Cole Mickelson (Graduate Assistant) COLORADO 2011 COLORADO BUFFALO Football GAME 1—HAWAI’I BUFFALOES TO OPEN EMBREE COACHING ERA IN PARADISE SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 2011 8:15 p.m. MDT Aloha Stadium (50,000), Honolulu, Hawai’i RELEASE NUMBER 1 (August 29, 2011) ESPN2 (National) | KOA-RADIO | CUBUFFS.COM (Live Stats) QUICKLY SPEAKING … The Colorado Buffaloes (5-7, 2-6 Big 12 in 2010) open the Jon Embree coaching era in “paradise” this Saturday, Sept. 3, traveling to Honolulu to take on the Hawai’i Warriors (10-4, 7-1 WAC in 2010) in an 8:15 p.m. MDT kickoff (4:15 HDT) at Aloha Stadium … It also marks the beginning of CU’s inaugural season as a member of the Pac-12 Conference, as CU competed the last 15 years in the Big 12 … The game will be televised nationally by ESPN2 … This is the first time since 1995 that the Buffaloes open a season with a true road game; that year, CU defeated Wisconsin in Madison, 43-7, in Rick Neuheisel’s debut as head coach. That’s the only time since 1932 that a full-time CU coach won his first game (William Saunders; Brian Cabral won his as interim head coach, 34-14, over Iowa State last Nov. 13) … It’s only the fourth season opener on the road since 1974 (in addition to ’95, the others were in 1980 at UCLA and in 1983 at Michigan State) … CU’s last season opener on artificial turf came in 1997—in Boulder; Folsom Field still had Astroturf when the Buffs opened with a 31-21 win over CSU (the last season opener on the road on the fake stuff was that ‘95game in Madison) … Fifteen of the 20 high school recruits in the ’11 recruiting class took at least one summer school class in Boulder (as did six invited walk-ons) … CU ticket officials asked for an allotment of 1,100 tickets for the Hawaii game and all were sold … CU will fly non-stop to and from Honolulu on a Boeing 767 charter … Visit CUBuffs.com/gameday as your one stop for everything, including our on-line media guide and live stats. DEPTH CHART ON PAGE 50; ROSTER ON PAGES 51-52 CU-UH TV: ESPN2 (National) / Dave Lamont (play-by-play) / David Diaz-Infante (color analyst) / (no sideline reporter) / Bruce Connal (producer) STAT OF THE WEEK The Buffs bring a 17-game road losing streak into the 2011 season, their last road win coming on Oct. 27, 2007 at Texas Tech (31-26); 11 of those have taken place on artificial fields. That last road win, however, was on an artificial surface in Lubbock. Five seniors on the current team made the trip to Tech, including OL Ryan Miller who started at right tackle (he’s now a guard), and TB Brian Lockridge, who rushed twice for 10 yards. Three others were redshirting that year but made the trip, then-OG Matt Bahr (now a TE), WR Jason Espinosa and then-ILB Josh Hartigan (now a DE). OBSCURE NOTE OF THE WEEK Hawai’i ranked 107th in the nation in rushing in 2010 (106.4 yards per game, though the Warriors average per rush was a healthy 4.8 as UH was primarily a passing team). The Warriors figure to test CU’s young secondary, but could have trouble running the ball against the Buff front seven; Colorado traditionally gets off to a good start defending the run. In the last 30 season openers (1981-2010), the opponent has rushed for over 200 yards just three times, while being held under 100 on 16 occasions (and to 150 or less 23 times). Last year, Colorado limited Colorado State to 49 rushing yards on 25 attempts (61 on 22 true rushes), with the 49 yards the fifth fewest ones rushing CU has ever allowed in a season opener.

  • 1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER the Following Players Comprise the 1967 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
    1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1967 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards.
