Colorado defeats Washington, 20-14. Thoughts?
- Holy crap! A great win for the seniors, a great win for the program. The Recruiting Class had to be watching this game - it's all good!! (58%, 291 Votes)
- On to Utah, with a chance at a bowl game. I don't know if the Buffs can pick up win number six, but a 5-7 season feels a whole lot better this season than the last two 5-7 seasons (27%, 137 Votes)
- A fun win, but it just makes the losses to Air Force, Arizona and USC all the more frustrating (15%, 72 Votes)

It's time! Your prediction for CU v. Washington on Senior Night:
- Buff seniors (we're looking at you, Steven Montez!) come through in an upset. Buffs win home finale! (48%, 108 Votes)
- Buffs have enough talent and energy to keep up for a good portion of the game, but Washington will win this won in a close one (32%, 71 Votes)
- Washington held Oregon State to six first downs (none in the second half). I'm afraid that this will be a frustrating defeat, with Washington posting a big win (20%, 46 Votes)

The Pac-12 game of the week I'll be paying the most attention to will be:
- No. 6 Oregon at Arizona State - Jon Wilner (San Jose Mercury News) and Yogi Roth (Pac-12 Networks) are smelling an upset. For real? (34%, 70 Votes)
- UCLA at USC - Helton v. Kelly - Here's guessing that the commentary will be more about the future of the coaches than about the game itself (34%, 70 Votes)
- No. 7 Utah at Arizona - No one predicting an upset here. Utah looking to take a seven-game win streak into game against CU; Arizona looking to avoid sixth straight loss (16%, 32 Votes)
- Oregon State at Washington State - The winner becomes bowl eligible, the loser must beat their in-state rival to get to six wins. Call this the "bowl-elimination" bowl (14%, 29 Votes)
- Cal at Stanford - Highlights of the "The band is out on the field" will be more fun than the game between 5-5 Cal and 4-6 Stanford (2%, 4 Votes)

Which factoid about the Washington game do you find to be the most disconcerting?
- None of the above. Each year is a new year, and the Buffs are a different team under Mel Tucker. Throw out the stats ... and let's take down the Huskies! (60%, 162 Votes)
- That the last time CU beat Washington, Darrin Chiaverini was a CU wide receiver, and Rick Neuheisel was the coach ... for CU (20%, 53 Votes)
- That in the first ten games this season, the Huskies have out-scored the opposition, 107-13 (19%, 50 Votes)
- That UW has 14 returns for scores over the past five years, and has given up zero ... and has allowed a grand total of seven punt return yards all season (1%, 5 Votes)

Buffs defeat UC-Irvine, 69-53, to move to 3-0 on the season. Thoughts?
- I'm just glad to see that the Buffs are not off to their (usual) slow start to the season ... and being ranked this early for the first time in 50 years is pretty cool! (42%, 116 Votes)
- A great team win. The Buffs held a team which won 31 games last year to 21 field goals ... with 22 turnovers. This is a tournament team!! (38%, 104 Votes)
- Glad that the Buffs are 3-0, but we won't know how actually good Arizona State, San Diego and UC-Irvine are for some time. Fingers crossed for future success (20%, 55 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??? 🙂
