It’s amazing it has been 10 years since The Ralphie Report first laid its foundation. Initially starting on the old blogger platform, it was safe to say The Ralphie Report really got started due to the perceived momentum with the football team. As I look back on 2008, optimism was certainly present with the thought of CU football returning to its glory days under Dan Hawkins.
In 2007, the Buffs, in Dan Hawkins’ second year as head coach, upset 3rd-ranked Oklahoma team in Boulder and ultimately ended the regular season bowl eligible (losing to Alabama in the Independence Bowl).
