CU men's basketball season opens against Drake Tuesday night. Thoughts?
  • I'm excited. Time to get McKinley Wright, Evan Battey and Shane Gatling on the same court at the same time. I'm excited to have CU and "W" get reacquainted (55%, 111 Votes)
  • I hope the Buffs don't take this game for granted. The final last year against Drake was 86-81 - too close for comfort (25%, 50 Votes)
  • It's basketball season already? Haven't been paying much attention - hope the Buffs take care of business against the Bulldogs (20%, 42 Votes)

Colorado opens as a 7.5-point underdog at home against Utah. Thoughts?
  • It's an indictment of the CU program that a team without its QB and top RB are that big a favorite in Folsom (45%, 154 Votes)
  • Sounds about right. If Utah can handle Oregon using backups, they should be favored (34%, 116 Votes)
  • Hell, it could always be worse ... Colorado State is a 26.0-point home underdog to Utah State (12%, 41 Votes)
  • CU will have film on the backups (which Oregon didn't), and will play hard on Senior Day. Don't underestimate a desperate Buff team! (9%, 35 Votes)

No. 10 Washington State 31, Colorado 7. Thoughts?
  • MacIntyre & Co. have two more chances to avoid unemployment. This was never going to be a win, so we'll see what the coaches come up with on Senior Day against Utah (50%, 195 Votes)
  • Fire MacIntyre now. Eight straight losses with a bowl bid on the line should be enough for any athletic director to say "enough is enough". The 2019 season should start Monday with a regime change (38%, 150 Votes)
  • It doesn't look like it on the scoreboard, but the defense played well enough to win this game. Buffs (and their fans) just have to hang in there (12%, 46 Votes)

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)

  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??? 🙂
