It's time! Your prediction for Colorado v. No. 10 Washington State
  • The best quarterback (at least statistically) in the nation against a decimated secondary? I hope I'm wrong, but I see a Washington State rout (44%, 102 Votes)
  • I don't know. I have a funny feeling about this one. Buffs come out with fire and upset the Cougars! (31%, 72 Votes)
  • Probably close to the line (Washington State a six-point favorite). The Buffs will keep it (agonizingly) close, but it will be another loss (25%, 57 Votes)

What factoid gives you the most encouragement about the Washington State game?
  • That this weekend may see the return of several of CU's injured players. A little upgrade in personnel could be the boost the Buffs need (67%, 151 Votes)
  • That Cal held the Cougars to 19 points last weekend, giving CU the template for how to limit the Washington State offense (24%, 54 Votes)
  • That Mike Leach coached teams are 0-4 in Folsom Field. Good karma for the Buffs this weekend (7%, 15 Votes)
  • That Washington State is 128th in the nation in rushing. If the Buffs can keep the Cougars one-dimensional, there's hope for an upset (2%, 7 Votes)

What is required of the Buffs for you to support Mike MacIntyre keeping his job?
  • At least one more win, getting CU to bowl eligibility. If CU ends the season on a seven-game losing streak, Rick George should be looking for a new coach (33%, 117 Votes)
  • A winning record, which will require either at least two regular season wins, or a win in the last three plus a bowl victory (28%, 100 Votes)
  • Doesn't matter to me. The Oregon State game was the final straw. MacIntyre should be gone, regardless of what happens in November. (16%, 58 Votes)
  • Doesn't matter. MacIntyre will be back for 2019, regardless of what happens in November (15%, 53 Votes)
  • At least eight wins, which means W's in three of the next four games (including the bowl game) (8%, 28 Votes)

Which Pac-12 game this weekend holds the most interest for you?
  • Oregon at Utah ... The Utes are up next for the Buffs. How will they play in their first full game without Tyler Huntley at quarterback? (74%, 132 Votes)
  • California at USC ... Are the 5-4 Bears heading for a showdown with the Buffs with a bowl bid on the line for two 5-6 teams? (14%, 25 Votes)
  • UCLA at Arizona State ... The Sun Devils control their own destiny for the Pac-12 South title. Can they take care of business against the Bruins? (11%, 20 Votes)
  • Oregon State at Stanford ... How will the Cardinal react to being 5-4 ... after being the No. 7 team in the nation? (1%, 2 Votes)

Would the return of Laviska Shenault be the difference in a game against Washington State?
  • Maybe ... but we also need to get Evan Worthington back ... and K.D. Nixon ... and Jay MacIntyre ... and maybe a kicker or two (48%, 145 Votes)
  • No. There are too many issues with the offensive line and secondary for the return of one player to make a difference against the Cougars (32%, 96 Votes)
  • Yes. It's no coincidence that CU is 5-0 in games in which Shenault has played the entire game; 0-4 when he hasn't (20%, 62 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??? 🙂
