Notre Dame (10-2), Iowa State (8-4) and Kansas State (6-6) sitting out the bowl season. Thoughts?
- I don't get it. Coaches have always stressed the desire for the 15 extra practices bowl games bring. Seems like a tough deal for the players who are missing their reward for a good season (36%, 55 Votes)
- All I know is that if Colorado was eligible for a bowl, we would be celebrating. Perhaps the time will come (in our lifetime) where CU will have the option of deciding whether or not to go to a bowl (33%, 50 Votes)
- I can understand Iowa State and Kansas State sitting out, as they will have new coaches next year, but Notre Dame is acting like a spoiled child who didn't get their way (31%, 48 Votes)

CU's Recruiting Class of 2026 is rated 75th by 247 Sports; 60th by Rivals/On3Sports. Thoughts?
- That's not going to cut it if CU is going to be competitive in the Big 12. Hopefully, new OC Brennan Marion bringing a four-star WR with him from Sac State is the state of a new era (40%, 62 Votes)
- I'm actually surprised that CU's Class is ranked even that high. The Buffs had been ranked near 100 in a week ago, but some impressive late signees have certainly helped (32%, 50 Votes)
- It's all relative. All of Coach Prime's high school Classes are ranked low. West Virginia has a Class ranked 26th, but with 49 freshman signees (only three four-stars). Wanna trade? Me, neither (28%, 43 Votes)

Rate your interest in the nine conference championship games being played this weekend
- Medium. There are some good games, and some intriguing outcomes for the College Football Playoff at stake. It's college football, and I'm a fan ... I'll be watching (50%, 75 Votes)
- Low. To be honest, I'm more interested in the CU at CSU men's basketball game (Saturday, 3:00 p.m., MT, CBS Sports Network) ... or, perhaps, Yale at Montana State in Bozeman π (27%, 40 Votes)
- High. No. 1 v. No. 2 in the Big Ten? Georgia v. Alabama in the SEC? BYU trying to get revenge against Texas Tech? It's going to be a fun weekend (23%, 34 Votes)

CU hires Sacramento State head coach Brennan Marion as offensive coordinator. Thoughts?
- Exciting news! Marion is known for developing the Go-Go offense, which relies on a strong run game and vertical passes. Imagine a CU offense rushing for 262 yards per game ... Wow! (37%, 91 Votes)
- We'll see. This will be Coach Prime's third offensive coordinator in four years at CU. Ever hopeful that the Buffs will find an offense that works (and that Julian Lewis thinks this is a good move) (35%, 87 Votes)
- I'm just glad at this point that there is movement in the coaching staff. CU fans have been beaten down the past two months ... we deserve some good news to give us hope for the future (28%, 70 Votes)

CU's Recruiting Class signs with ten members joining the Herd on Wednesday. Thoughts?
- I get that Coach Prime doesn't believe in brining in large high school Classes, but the Classes are getting smaller and smaller. He'll have to hit on almost every one of these signees (45%, 98 Votes)
- Disappointing. Sad. Frustrating. Pick your adjective. Hopefully, Christian Ward's four-star brother will still sign with CU and become the next Travis Hunter. Otherwise, this another bad day for CU (32%, 71 Votes)
- A good day. No last minute defections from the commitment list, several four-star defensive players. Glad to see Coach Prime pick up some much needed linebackers (23%, 50 Votes)

I like the question about SS’s negative coverage. Personally, I think the see-saw coverage is mostly about “stirring the pot” and/or getting clicks. SS is this year’s draft soap opera–a love/hate fest For one negative story there is a more positive one. Some stories are just hit jobs (anonymous NFL assistant/exec), others just cover every minutia of his life. Yesterday, Kiper has him still going early.
SS is an intriguing draftee warranting discussion, however the extensive overall coverage on every detail for one QB prospect seems over the top. NFL teams have their draft boards, needs, and evaluations and they make decisions based upon that. I’ll be glad when SS and TH are picked today and the focus will be on our team.
The Buffs need to wear the silver and gold that are the official school colors. Black jerseys are OK as the’ve been around for a long time, but out with the black helmets–and the white ones too. Gold helmets with silver pants, alternating with silver helmets and gold pants would be good. Nix on all black and all white!!
‘SkoBuffs!! Drub the Nubs.
Stuart, your polls are so thoughtful and on point. Appreciate you doing this and sharing it with your CUAtTheGame community.
Did Coach Hagan just let the cat out of the bag regarding Colorado’s starting QB?
Wouldn’t mind the Cheez-It Bowl at all, as I have connections at Kellogg’s (owns Cheez-it) who could get me tickets!! Is that Cheezy??? π
