Everyone knows that University of Colorado Boulder is better than Colorado State University. Just look at the saying, “If you can’t go to college, go to state”, it says it all. CU has so much to offer and so many things that make it better than CSU. There are lots of reasons that show that CU is clearly the better school to go to and the better place to be.
Who won the Rocky Mountain Showdown this year? Oh, that’s right, CU did. We won 27-24. Not to mention, Cam the Ram also died on that day, abandoning his school and leaving his fans mascot-less. Ralphie the Buffalo stood strong with her fans. She wasn’t going to die on us in a time of need. Clearly, CU was better that day, and in general.
CU basketball is better in the 2016 season as well. This past December, CU Men’s Basketball beat CSU 88-77. To make it even better, we beat CSU on their home court. CU athletics outweigh CSU’s any day.
The Flatirons speak for themselves. They are the most beautiful part of Boulder and if you attend CU, you have the privilege to look at them every day. Not to mention the hiking terrain that they provide. The Flatirons are the landmark of Boulder. CSU has nothing to compare in the scenery category.
The campus of CU is overall better than the campus of CSU. The buildings are unique because they are made with red bricks to resemble Tuscan architecture. CU also has The Hill. It is convenient and fun to have a place to go out to on the weekends where all the frat and house parties happen. It is all in one area, which makes the campus and college town vibes ideal. Not to mention, we have a pool shaped like a buffalo.
CU is a Pac 12 school, a Power Five Conference, so we have more intense and exciting games. CSU is part of the Mountain West conference, which is much less known. CU has bigger, more fun and more energetic game atmospheres. This also means CU has more school spirit. We support all of our teams, making any sporting event an unforgettable time.
Another famous part of CU is where our Buffs play football. Folsom Field is notorious for being beautiful and full of energy and good vibes at all times. It clearly outweighs CSU’s Hughes Stadium.
Most college students like to party, and the party scene at CU is unbeatable. With the frat houses and the crazy house parties, there is never a dull weekend at CU. CSU’s party scene is still good, but it is incomparable to the party scene at CU. There is always something going on in Boulder.
In my opinion, it is a given that CU is the better school out of the two. CU has so much more to offer and is located in such a beautiful place. Don’t worry Rams; CU does take transfer students! We all know you would rather be here. I think I have made my point that clearly; it sucks to be a CSU Ram. Sko Buffs!
