Which of the following excerpts from the statement by CU athletic director Rick George leaves you the most frustrated?
  • “Regardless of your feelings right now, I encourage you to continue to support our tremendous football student-athletes". Not supporting the coaches doesn't mean we don't support the players (41%, 93 Votes)
  • "I recognize and understand your disappointment and frustration and perhaps, even anger. We have not come close to meeting our expectations this season and we own that" ... By making changes? (33%, 75 Votes)
  • “I know that our coaches and our student-athletes are capable of so much more and that all of you deserve better results" - And yet ... no changes. When do we get what we "deserve"? (26%, 58 Votes)

Arizona State fires Herm Edwards after the Sun Devils (1-2) fall 30-21 to Eastern Michigan. Thoughts?
  • So ... Nebraska can fire its coach in September, and ASU can fire its coach (with three winning seasons and a 26-20 record) in September, but in Boulder ... crickets. I hate this (56%, 176 Votes)
  • I just hope that the firing does not keep the NCAA from doing its job and punishing the ASU program. ASU got three winning seasons and bowls by cheating ... there needs to be justice (37%, 115 Votes)
  • Arizona State just got tired of waiting for the NCAA to give cause for firing. Buyout right about $10 million, but the future of the program was apparently worth it to act now (7%, 21 Votes)

Colorado mauled by Minnesota for the second straight year. Thoughts?
  • If Karl Dorrell is still the head coach at the end of the season, Colorado should just concede it doesn't care about football, and petition the Mountain West for admission (51%, 204 Votes)
  • Another week, another embarrassing loss. The Buffs were four touchdown underdogs, so what did anyone expect? Three losses down, nine to go before we can start dreaming about different results in 2023 (39%, 154 Votes)
  • Nice to have two tough road games out of the way (who schedules such a gauntlet, anyway?). UCLA was a play away from losing to South Alabama, so hope springs eternal each week (10%, 39 Votes)

It's time! Your prediction for Colorado at Minnesota (Saturday, 1:30 p.m., MT, ESPN2)
  • The worst Power-Five team in the nation will once again show why they are the worst. Until the Buffs can show otherwise, it's always a better bet to lay the points. Minnesota in an ugly rout (68%, 178 Votes)
  • It would be difficult for the Buffs not to play better, and the Golden Gophers will be looking ahead to their game against Michigan State. Buffs won't win, but can beat the huge spread (27.5-points) (26%, 68 Votes)
  • A great week of practices (Dorrell said so!), an over-confident Golden Gopher team, and a quarterback in J.T. Shrout who won't have to throw in the rain. Buffs win! (6%, 14 Votes)

Which of the following Pac-12 games this weekend for you holds the most interest?
  • No. 12 BYU at No. 25 Oregon ... The Cougars are good, but good enough to win in Eugene? The Ducks were crushed, then beat up on an FCS team. How good are the Ducks under Dan Lanning? (40%, 84 Votes)
  • No. 11 Michigan State at Washington ... Who to cheer for? CU has to play in Seattle in November, but watching Mel Tucker's Spartans would also be fun. Not sure who to cheer for/against (36%, 76 Votes)
  • North Dakota State at Arizona ... Everyone is loving the new and improved Wildcats, but the Bison have won six straight against FBS schools. Should be an interesting game (18%, 39 Votes)
  • California at Notre Dame ... The Bears aren't that good, but the Irish have lost three straight, including last weekend to Marshall. Is Notre Dame bad enough to lose to Cal? (6%, 13 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??? 🙂
