If the Pac-12 can't get a good media rights deal, and the Big 12 comes calling, should CU consider the move?
- Doesn't matter. I'm just happy to see that CU is in the conversation about expansion. If Coach Prime wasn't in Boulder, CU might be left out of the conversation entirely (49%, 122 Votes)
- No. A Pac-12 without USC and UCLA presents a better path to the college football playoff, and that's what Coach Prime is all about. Stay with the Pac-12! (28%, 69 Votes)
- Yes. If the Pac-12 is trading out USC and UCLA for San Diego State and SMU, it's time to go. A Big 12 without Texas and Oklahoma would be a nice fit (23%, 59 Votes)

Early pre-spring guess: Chances there will be attrition out of the running backs room after spring practices conclude
- High. Coach Prime didn't bring in a graduate transfer and a four-star freshman to sit. There are four good - but not great - running backs returning from last season. I can't see all of them staying (59%, 144 Votes)
- Medium. All of these players will have a chance to show their value this spring, and each brings something to the table. Coach Prime likes skill players - he may keep them all (36%, 87 Votes)
- Low. As CU has learned to its detriment in the past, you can't have enough quality running backs on the roster. I wouldn't be surprised if all of the current players make the team this season (5%, 12 Votes)

Tickets for the Spring Game go on sale Friday. Thoughts on CU charging $10 to attend the Spring Game
- Love it! Even if CU "only" draws 35,000 (which would double the CU Spring Game record of 17,800), that's another $350K (plus concessions, parking, merchandise sales) brought in by Coach Prime (48%, 128 Votes)
- I'm just glad to see that CU is back to being on the national stage. The CU Spring Game will be national news .... Read that sentence again: "The CU Spring Game will be national news" (45%, 119 Votes)
- Not a fan. CU is still trying to build its fan base, and one way of doing that is to bring in young families. They might come to a free Spring Game, but won't be paying good money for a scrimmage (7%, 19 Votes)

Report: Pac-12 commissioner George Kliavkoff visited San Diego State and SMU. Thoughts on the Aztecs and the Mustangs joining the Pac-12
- I don't think it really it makes much difference. The next realignment will come later in the decade when the SEC and Big Ten TV contracts are up. I just hope CU is a player when that happens (55%, 159 Votes)
- I like it. The Pac-12 needs to make a transition, and the southern Californian and the Dallas television markets would be welcome additions with the new media contracts being negotiated (26%, 75 Votes)
- Trading USC and UCLA for San Diego State and SMU? Does Kliavkoff and the Pac-12 understand how bad that looks? Just say no! (19%, 54 Votes)

What do you think of Coach Prime's Oikos yogurt "Family Reunion" Super Bowl commercial?
- Love it. Not only is Coach Prime appearing as "Coach Prime", but sons Shedeur and Shilo are also featured. Great free publicity for CU, its head coach ... and two of its players! (63%, 118 Votes)
- It's fine. Glad that Coach Prime is getting himself and his family in front of millions of eyeballs, but the commercial itself is kind of meh (23%, 43 Votes)
- It would been nice if there had been a CU logo somewhere in the commercial, but it was probably filmed before the hire (and Oikos probably wouldn't have wanted it anyway). Still, it's nice publicity (14%, 26 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??? 🙂
