The high level of enthusiasm during the offseason can be attributed to several factors. The Buccaneers won their final four games last season, including a shutout win over rival Coastal Carolina to end the season at 7-5. Next came the news that the Bucs would open 2009 against defending national champion Florida Gators on Sept. 5.
"We finished the season with a lot of momentum and it carried over into the winter workouts and all through spring practice," said Mills. "I really believe the first game opponent has heightened our focus and led to a higher level of concentration throughout the summer."
“I am really excited about this team,“ said Mills. “I have heard some encouraging things from the strength coach about the progress over the summer. I am confident that we are going to have a good team to put on the field come September.“
The season begins with a 7 p.m. kickoff against Florida in Gainesville, Fla., one of two FBS games on the 2009 slate for CSU, with South Florida coming two weeks later.
Well i hope you guys can do what portland state did to oregon i believe in 2006, score on your first possesion on a big play and silence the crowd for a few minutes, would be pretty cool to see that stadium silent in shock even for a few seconds.

I hope that CSU walks away knowing they dished out a little bit of pain.
