Brendan Sorsby sues the NCAA to be reinstated as Texas Tech's quarterback. Thoughts?
  • Hell to the No. The NCAA has very few arrows in its quiver, but a permanent ban for betting on your own team has to be the line in the sand. If the NCAA loses this, the sport is totally out of control (100%, 10 Votes)
  • Sorsby's arguing that the NCAA is punishing him “Rather than support a student-athlete’s recovery from a gambling addiction". Will that work? Perhaps before a Texas judge ... (0%, 0 Votes)
  • Sorsby said his bets were a way to “feel more connected to the team” and that he never used non-public information when deciding what bets to place. Sure, Brendan. Sure. (0%, 0 Votes)

Of the following, which would you rate as your favorite CU game from the 1990s?
  • 1994 - No. 7 Colorado 26, No. 4 Michigan 26. If there is one game CU is most remembered for, it has to be "The Miracle at Michigan". Stewart-to-Westbrook will never be forgotten (34%, 43 Votes)
  • 1991 - No. 1 Colorado 10, No. 5 Notre Dame 9. Not the prettiest of games, but the game which won CU its first national championship. Hard to be finishing No. 1! (30%, 39 Votes)
  • 1990 - No. 9 Colorado 27, No. 3 Nebraska 12. Bieniemy goes for four fourth quarter touchdowns to propel CU to the national championship game (30%, 38 Votes)
  • 1994 - No. 7 Colorado 41, Iowa State 20. Salaam gets to 2,000 yards in style; Stewart sets the all-time Big Eight total offense record ... and Coach Bill resigns. One hell of an afternoon (6%, 8 Votes)

Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark: "The Big 12 likes 24 (for playoffs), subject to doing the work and figuring out the economics". Thoughts?
  • The devil is in the details. How many teams will have guaranteed entries? What will the payouts be? Are conference title games going the way of the dinosaurs? To be determined (54%, 83 Votes)
  • Disagree. Not that I'm a fan of the SEC, but I hope the SEC holds out, and keeps the Playoffs at no more than 16 teams. Living in a world where 8-4 teams have a shot at a title makes no sense (27%, 42 Votes)
  • Agree. It seems inevitable that the College Football Playoffs will go to 24 teams. I'm glad the Big 12 has Brett Yormark as its commissioner. He will protect the Big 12's (and CU's) interests (19%, 28 Votes)

Which of the following stats from the CBS Sports 1-138 to you is the most difficult to take?
  • That this is just the latest of what will likely be a summer of dismal forecasts for my Buffs. Iowa State, Oklahoma State, and West Virginia are all starting over, yet are all ranked above CU (64%, 49 Votes)
  • That CU is ranked 73rd in the rankings, last in the Big 12. Throw in the fact that Georgia Tech and Northwestern are also ranked above CU ... CBS is forecasting a 1-11 season for CU (32%, 24 Votes)
  • That the Big 12 only has three ranked teams. Just another indication that there is little respect for the Big 12 nationally. Only Texas Tech (which may have lost its quarterback) is in the Top Ten (4%, 3 Votes)

CU's season opener set for Thursday, September 3rd, at 6:00 p.m., MT, on ESPN. Thoughts?
  • I love it! Glad that the game isn't any later, so it won't be a late weeknight. I also like that it's a nationally televised game on ESPN - nice exposure for a team which went 3-9 last season (40%, 39 Votes)
  • I hope that Coach Prime has his charges ready. The pitchforks are already out. If CU stumbles badly, it will set the narrative nationally for the remainder of the season (32%, 31 Votes)
  • There are ten games on the schedule for that first Thursday night ... and the CU/Georgia Tech game is the only one involving two Power Four teams. Sit back and enjoy the national attention (28%, 27 Votes)

  1. Stuart:

    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.

  2. 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!!

  3. Stuart, your polls are so thoughtful and on point. Appreciate you doing this and sharing it with your CUAtTheGame community.

  4. 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??? 🙂
