- No chance. Oregon State may be a middling Pac-12 team, but that's enough to take out CSU (48%, 72 Votes)

- About right. The Rams will be hyped for the first game in their new stadium (20%, 29 Votes)

Lindy's sees Colorado as the No. 41 team in the nation
- All I know ... CU was No. 71 in Lindy's last year, and that turned out okay for the Buffs (48%, 88 Votes)
- Ridiculously low. Buffs once again placed below two 4-8 teams (UCLA and Oregon) (37%, 68 Votes)
- About right. If the predictions are right, CU will be 7-5 and bowl bound (15%, 29 Votes)

Street and Smith's has CU third in Pac-12 South, with a Sun Bowl bid

- Too low. Utah finishing above CU in the Pac-12 South? I don't see it (35%, 62 Votes)
- I'm not interested in preseason magazine predictions ... CU is undefeated until proven otherwise! (21%, 38 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??? 🙂
