Fox Sports announces that it will put its biggest games at the noon ET time slot. Thoughts?
  • It is what it is. Fox is just trying to push its Big Ten and Big 12 contracts. It's more a matter of geography than it is about the lack of interest in Pac-12 games (68%, 149 Votes)
  • Hate it. Just another nail in the coffin for the Pac-12, with the conference excluded from national exposure games by default (no chance there will be a 10:00 a.m. (MT) or a 9:00 a.m. (PT) start) (21%, 47 Votes)
  • Like it. Having big games on early will give me the chance to start the day with a big game at home or at a tailgate, and still make the Buffs' game that afternoon/evening (11%, 24 Votes)

Which of the Rick George quotes about future non-conference scheduling do you like best?
  • “With Mel’s leadership in that program, I have every expectation, and I know Mel believes in that as well, that we can be back to national prominence like we have been historically" (45%, 89 Votes)
  • “We want to be challenged. We want to win and we want to win at the highest level and to do that you have to compete against the highest level" (30%, 60 Votes)
  • “I think our schedule as we move forward is going to be a competitive schedule that’s going to give us the national exposure we need to get in the conversations about the College Football Playoff" (25%, 51 Votes)

What I like best about new QB commit Brandon Lewis ...
  • That Lewis threw for 2,524 yards last year, with 34 touchdowns and only three interceptions (count 'em, three!). Lewis also ran for 967 yards and 11 touchdowns (44%, 74 Votes)
  • This analysis: "Lewis plays with notable confidence. He calmly stands in the pocket and navigates the field, usually making the right reads and finding the open receiver" (39%, 65 Votes)
  • This analysis: "His running ability also allows him to throw on the run, and he drives the ball well to the perimeter when rolling to his right and throwing with his body" (17%, 29 Votes)

CU picks up a commitment from three-star quarterback Brendon Lewis. Thoughts?
  • Fantastic news!! A dual-threat quarterback with over a dozen Power-Five offers? Verrry excited about Lewis and what he brings to the CU roster!! (61%, 164 Votes)
  • This sounds like a great commitment - but I am more excited to see if the Brendon Lewis commit opens up the floodgates for the CU Class of 2020 (which presently only has three members) (28%, 74 Votes)
  • Not to be a wet blanket, but remember Ty Evans? He was a super-committed Buff last spring ... and ended up signing with N.C. State. I'll be excited about Mr. Lewis - when he signs in December (11%, 30 Votes)

Four Buff defenders put their names into the "Transfer Portal". Thoughts?
  • Sorry to see any players leave, but these players stuck with the team through spring practices, which to me says the moves are about playing time, and not about the new coaching staff (59%, 146 Votes)
  • Not really news. Only DB Kevin George logged any significant playing time, and that was on special teams. Attrition is required to get to 85 scholarships, and these losses are relatively painless (40%, 98 Votes)
  • Two defensive backs, a linebacker, and a defensive lineman gone? Not good news for units which are already short on depth (1%, 3 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??? 🙂
