Each week during the season we interview a writer that covers Colorado's upcoming opponent. This week we continue the 2025 series by chatting with 14-time winner of Delaware Sportswriter of the Year Kevin Tresolini, of The News Journal, to break down Ryan Carty's squad for CU fans...
With Delaware's starting quarterback Zach Marker going down with an injury in the season opener, what can Colorado fans expect to see out of Nick Minicucci behind center this Saturday afternoon at Folsom Field?
"He's a good quarterback. He is a third-year junior but he has started games each of the last two years. His first start was actually as a true freshman in an NCAA playoff game (at the FCS level) two years ago. He has done a nice job. Sturdy kid, willing to run it. He ran through a pretty tough Del-State guy for a touchdown the other night. Throws it well. Good dual-threat quarterback. Though most of his quarterback runs are typically on scrambles, he is willing and able to run. He's 6-foot-2, 215-pounds. So he's solid."
