Analyst memes Keyshawn Johnson’s Colorado vs Oregon conspiracy
CBS Sports’ Shehan Jeyarajah memed the bejesus out of Keyshawn Johnson’s whacky Colorado vs Oregon conspiracy he shared during the September 25 edition of FS1’s Undisputed alongside Skip Bayless; a conspiracy in which Johnson claimed Week 4’s 42-6 blowout was influenced by Ducks head coach Dan Lanning and his staff receiving vital information about CU’s gameplan.
“The entire coaching fraternity getting together to tell Lanning to run halfback dive for 7 yards a carry,” accompanied by a photo of Barack Obama’s actual war room during his presidency. Johnson claimed his seemingly third-eye-open rant was “the reality.”
“So I spoke to somebody in the coaching fraternity right after the game,” Johnson prefaced before saying, “They know some people that coach at Oregon. They was telling me, they said, ‘Man, I’ve never heard from another assistant coach of how much information was being given to that staff about,’ — I’m just, I’m just being real with it — ‘about game-planning against Colorado, so they can beat them.’ Everybody was stacked. That’s the reality. I ain’t making this up. I ain’t going to disclose no names, but y’all know who I’m talking about, if y’all was watching. You know.”
Colorado vs Oregon matchup was as cut and dry as it gets
Johnson is clearly so much in the corner of Coach Prime that he’s willing to bend reality in a way that feels akin to gaslighting or pure engagement farming.
Oregon’s defensive line overpowered Colorado’s offensive line to the tune of seven sacks, and Bo Nix’s 28 completions in 33 passing attempts, 276 passing yards, and three touchdowns were inevitable without Travis Hunter at least chipping away at the talent gap between the Ducks’ receiving corps and the rest of CU’s secondary.
September 23’s result was not the result of Oregon knowing what was coming from Colorado. That was the result of Coach Prime inheriting a program that’s going to take more than one transfer class to compete with the crème de la crème of college football.
