Buffs rout Oregon State in a re-scheduled game, 78-49. Thoughts?
- Love this result! With stars McKinley Wright and Evan Battey slowed by injuries, non-starters Tristin da Silva (15 pts) and Jeriah Horne (16 pts) have huge games. Bodes well for the future (45%, 116 Votes)
- Nice to finish off the homestand with an easy win, but CU's standing in the Pac-12 (and tournament seeding) will depend on the upcoming four-game road trip. Fingers crossed (35%, 88 Votes)
- Glad that the Buffs were able to get this makeup game out of the way with a stress-free win. With two more games in the next five days, any rest for the starters is welcome (20%, 51 Votes)

Which quote from Notre Dame transfer linebacker Jack Lamb do you like the most?

- “I talked to (CU DB Mark Perry) a little bit, picked his brain about the school and he said he loved it there. He said the coaching staff is awesome. He had all positive things to say" (34%, 93 Votes)
- "I want to showcase my ability at the next level. I want to show I can go to the NFL, and they were willing to give me the opportunity to prove that" (10%, 27 Votes)

Buffs scratch out an 82-79 win over Arizona. Thoughts?
- A huge win. Yes, the Buffs again blew a big lead, but found a way to win anyway. Arizona is CU's nemesis, so every win over the Wildcats is one to be treasured. I hope the Buffs can build on this win (50%, 133 Votes)
- Buffs are a tough team to love, but they are getting closer and closer to their first tournament bid since 2016. Hard on the blood pressure, but they're still my Buffs! (33%, 89 Votes)
- Sound familiar? Buffs race out to a big early lead (in this case, 19-2) then blow it. Not a great formula for tournament success (17%, 45 Votes)

After a few days of bad news, Buff fans received some good news over the past few days. Which story has you most excited?
- That CU picked up a commitment from the transfer portal, Notre Dame linebacker Jack Lamb, a former four-star recruit with an impressive offer sheet (57%, 149 Votes)
- That CU picked up its first commitment from the Recruiting Class of 2022, OLB/S Dylan Dixson, who had offers from schools like Florida State, ASU, Virginia Tech and Iowa State (33%, 86 Votes)
- That the CU coaching staff is now officially complete, with the promotion of Bryan Cook to tight ends coach, and the hiring of Mark Smith as inside linebackers coach (10%, 26 Votes)

CU receives a transfer portal commitment from a former four-star inside linebacker from Notre Dame, Jack Lamb. Thoughts?
- A former four-star who had offers from Oklahoma, Oregon and Penn State in addition to Notre Dame? With three years of eligibility left? In a position of need? Love it! (43%, 143 Votes)
- I'm just glad that CU got some good news after the disappointments of the week. Did the coaching staff have Lamb in mind when T.J. Patu and CU parted ways? (Perhaps panic wasn't the proper response) (33%, 111 Votes)
- Well, he suffered a hip injury in 2019 which limited his play in 2020. Fingers crossed he'll be healthy (and fingers crossed that he makes it to CU. Nothing's final until he graduates this spring) (24%, 78 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??? 🙂
