Thoughts on CU being ranked 27th in USA Today preseason poll
- Like it. Being just outside the poll will give the Buffs incentive to pummel CSU (61%, 182 Votes)
- Not interested. Polls shouldn't even come out until mid-October, after half the season in the books (34%, 102 Votes)
- Hate it. From No. 15 at the end of 2016 to No. 27 now? No respect for CU ... once again (5%, 14 Votes)

Thoughts on freshman TE/Ath Sebastian Olver leaving the team
- You can't miss what you don't have. I'm glad to have another scholarship available for the Class of 2018 (54%, 165 Votes)
- Why did he leave after one weekend? There's got to be more to the story ... (44%, 136 Votes)
- A big loss. Olver was a tight end/athlete who the Buffs really could have used/developed (2%, 6 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??? 🙂
