CU to open Fall Camp with a week in Colorado Springs. Thoughts?
- I like it. Team bonding is important, especially when half the team is new to the program. Get out of Boulder (and its distractions), and focus on football (50%, 13 Votes)
- I'm just glad that we are talking about football, even if it's just Fall Camp. It has been a looonnnggg off-season. I'm tired of bad forecasts for CU's season - let's get to football! (31%, 8 Votes)
- Kinda sounds like a gimmick to me. Think of the logistics - all the equipment, housing and feeding over 100 athletes, medical treatments. CU has a state-of-the-art facility - use it! (19%, 5 Votes)

If the Big 12 were to expand to 19 teams, would Washington State, Oregon State and UNLV be the best options?
- No, but that's not the main issue. The first issue is whether any teams will be snapped up by the SEC or Big Ten (if you read Texas Tech message boards, they are sure they're on their way up (43%, 33 Votes)
- Yes. Washington State and Oregon State are the logical choices from the west, with their recent Power Five history. After that, it would be either UNLV or Boise State (35%, 27 Votes)
- All I care about is that Colorado State is not part of the discussion. If there are to be 76 Power Four teams, please make sure that the Rams are not part of the discussion (22%, 17 Votes)

Which of the following CU road games do you believe is the most winnable?
- Saturday, October 24th at Oklahoma State. I don't get the hype. Yes, the Cowboys will be better with Mestemaker, but there will be 11 new starters on defense. Oklahoma State isn't Indiana (50%, 74 Votes)
- Thursday, September 3rd at Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets lost their star quarterback and both coordinators. Georgia Tech will be the first to be exposed to CU's Go-Go offense (43%, 64 Votes)
- Saturday, November 9th at Arizona State. Don't look now, but the bloom is falling off of Kenny Dillingham's rose. Down to 8-5 last season, the Sun Devils also lost Sam Leavitt to LSU (7%, 11 Votes)

Against which of the following top Big 12 teams do the Buffs have the best chance at winning?
- October 17th v. Utah. Kyle Whittingham is off to Michigan, taking with him key players and coaches. The Utes are about to begin a slow slide back to mediocrity - and CU will help (55%, 63 Votes)
- November 13th v. Houston. It will be a short week for the Cougars, with a late (9:15 p.m., CT) kickoff. Oh, and perhaps the mid-November Boulder weather will help keep the Buffs in the game (40%, 46 Votes)
- October 3rd v. Texas Tech. The Red Raiders will be without Brendan Sorsby. The Buffs will be the first Big 12 road game for the Red Raiders, and the Buffs will be ready for the villains of the Big 12 (5%, 6 Votes)

CU rated as having one of the "oldest" rosters in the Power Four. Thoughts?
- Not really that big a deal. The difference is cumulative ages is just a fraction of a fraction between teams. Number of career games and career snaps matters more than chronological age (57%, 44 Votes)
- I like it. What did Curt Cignetti say about his philosophy for Indiana: "Get old and stay old"? It's taken Coach Prime some time to figure out, but experience does matter (30%, 23 Votes)
- Wait a second ... With Coach Prime not being interested in high school recruiting, you would have thought CU would have had one of the oldest teams every year ... and that hasn't worked out so well (13%, 10 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??? 🙂
