CU - and other teams from the former Pac-12 - will retain the bowl alliances in 2026-27. Thoughts?
  • We can file this under the "not relevant" category. CU is so far from worrying about bowl sites that this is a non-story. Call me in November when the Buffs get to six wins - then I'll care (59%, 49 Votes)
  • I'm surprised that the conferences weren't able to get this worked out. Where are the current "Pac-12" bowl eligible teams going to go? Sorry, CSU, your goal of getting to the Idaho Bowl (23%, 19 Votes)
  • Nice. The bowl alliances from the Pac-12 (San Antonio, San Diego, Las Vegas) are better than the Big 12 (Houston, Memphis, Orlando) (18%, 15 Votes)

CU athletic department receives a record-breaking $6 million donation from the Crawford Family Foundation. Thoughts?
  • The Crawford family has been great for CU, and I like that they honored Rick George with their gift. Too many Buff fans have been bashing George, but his legacy is a positive one for CU athletics (49%, 52 Votes)
  • This is great news! If CU is going to have a chance at being competitive on the field, CU has to be competitive in fundraising. A great day for the Buff Nation! (29%, 31 Votes)
  • Let's be realistic. The donation is $1 million per year for three years to help pay for players. Not to be negative, but CU needs four or five more of these to make a difference (22%, 23 Votes)

NCAA one step closer to approving Week Zero games and two bye weeks. Thoughts?
  • I like it. I'd rather have a game in late August than in the cold of late October. Having flexibility with schedules will help coaches; an extra bye week will help players stay healthy (55%, 40 Votes)
  • Not a fan. College football should start over Labor Day weekend. It's not a summer event - have you ever been in the stands at Folsom for a 90-degree game? It's not a pleasant experience (30%, 22 Votes)
  • An extra bye week could have an unexpected benefit - with two CU bye weeks, Buff fans get a chance to watch some other football games without having to work their watching schedule around a CU game (15%, 11 Votes)

CBS Sports: This will be Coach Prime's final season. Thoughts?
  • It depends on how the season unfolds. If CU is bad as the pundits as are predicting, then Coach Prime and CU may have a mutual parting of the ways this December (41%, 58 Votes)
  • Stop it already! This is like the story of a broken clock being right twice a day. The pundits have been saying this every off-season since Coach Prime arrived. One of these days, they'll be right (30%, 42 Votes)
  • I'm not agreeing with the prediction, but it's not really a hot take. Coach Prime is just a negative medical visit from retirement. Hoping it won't happen, but it wouldn't be a shock if he left (29%, 42 Votes)

CU receives a Recruiting Class of 2027 commitment from a four-star quarterback prospect, Andre Adams. Thoughts?
  • Offensive coordinator Brennan Marion has a reputation as a good recruiter. I see this as a good sign that Marion is not only a good recruiter, but is invested in CU's future. A good day for CU (46%, 70 Votes)
  • This is good news ... today. We are still, what, eight months away from Signing Day? Ask me again when Adams is enrolled at CU ... then, I'll get excited about his commitment (34%, 52 Votes)
  • This is very good news. Not only does this commitment help to solidify a young and talented quarterback room, Adams' commitment could act as a recruiting tool to attract other talent to Boulder (20%, 31 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??? 🙂
