Pac-12 assigns Colorado to play Oregon for Game Seven (before dumping the Buffs so Oregon could play USC). Thoughts?
- I just hope the game gets played. Whether against the Ducks or another Pac-12 team, I just want these players to get an opportunity to play ... and get to a bowl game! (64%, 204 Votes)
- To be the best, you have to beat the best. What better opportunity to show that the 2020 season is not a fluke than to take down Oregon (at least it was a good idea in theory) (24%, 76 Votes)
- Hate it. In every other scheduled Pac-12 game (including the title game), the team with the better record gets a home game. CU? Not so much, getting a neutral site game in Los Angeles. Figures! (12%, 40 Votes)

Utah storms back from a 21-10 deficit to take down No. 21 Colorado, 38-21. Thoughts?
- Plenty of blame to go around. Noyer threw two bad interceptions; Broussard had a crucial fumble; and the defense without Landman couldn't stop the Utes (48%, 201 Votes)
- Considering the injuries and the turnovers, it was a surprise that the Buffs had a chance to win with five minutes to play. Accept loss No. 1 and move on (31%, 131 Votes)
- You know what I hate the most? The pundits will use the final score to justify discounting CU's four wins, and relegate the Buffs to the bottom half of the Pac-12 South (again) (21%, 89 Votes)

It's time! Your prediction for No. 21 Colorado v. Utah (10:00 a.m., MT, Fox)
- I'm afraid this will be very close (and low scoring), and will come down to a turnover or special teams gaffe. I am hopeful that the Buffs will be the team to make one less mistake (59%, 185 Votes)
- The Buffs learned their lesson last weekend, and will be fully prepared for the Utes. I look for the Buffs to come out super-energized, and take it to the Utes to get to 5-0! (30%, 96 Votes)
- The Buffs are trying to establish themselves as a team with a strong running game and a stout defense. Unfortunately, Utah has been doing that for years, and will have the edge in this game (11%, 35 Votes)

Washington/Oregon game canceled. Washington wins the North, but status unclear for Pac-12 title game. Thoughts?
- Doesn't matter to me. All that I care about right now is the CU/Utah game. Check back with me about 1:30 on Saturday to see how I feel about the status of the Pac-12 title game ... (83%, 277 Votes)
- Interesting. This likely eliminates Oregon from the title chase (they wouldn't let a 3-2 play, would they?), and if Washington can't go next week, the door could be open for a CU/USC title game (10%, 34 Votes)
- Not a good look for the conference. Just like it looks like Michigan ducked Ohio State, it looks like Washington ducked Oregon. The Pac-12 needed to have as many games played as possible (7%, 23 Votes)

Fox moves the CU/Utah game from Friday night at 7:30 to Saturday morning at 10:00 a.m. - Thoughts?
- Love it! CU/Utah becomes the featured game for the "Big Noon (ET) Kickoff". Great national publicity, and a much larger television audience than CU would get on a Friday night on FS1 (71%, 297 Votes)
- I'm just excited to have Joel Klatt doing the broadcast. He's been an outspoken critic of how the Pac-12 has handled title game issues, and this will give him the chance to vent (& promote CU!) (19%, 78 Votes)
- Not a big fan. I understand that there are financial advantages to having a Pac-12 breakfast game, but, if I'm going to be home watching my Buffs, I'd rather do it Friday night than Saturday morning (10%, 42 Votes)

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.
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??? 🙂
