• Medium. Glad that CU found a life boat as the Pac-12 imploded, but CU has a great deal to prove as it returns to its old haunts. Pressure is on to succeed (49%, 108 Votes)
• High. The Buffs return to the conference where success was expected and achieved. Glad to have the Pac-12 in the rear view mirror, with a fresh start against teams CU can beat (33%, 73 Votes)
• Low. Trips to Los Angeles, San Francisco, Phoenix and Seattle have been replaced with trips to Lubbock, Waco, Ames and Stillwater. Hard to get excited about a conference without a Blue Blood to beat (18%, 39 Votes)

• Tier Two: 5-8 in the Big 12. A potential strength. A diversified unit with great potential; a unit which can help CU to a winning record and a bowl berth (47%, 72 Votes)
• Tier Three: 9-12 in the Big 12. Likely a liability, with no proven back in the room. But, if the unit can avoid injury and live up to its potential, they can help CU get to a bowl game (36%, 55 Votes)
• Tier Four: 13-16 in the Big 12. Once again, a problem area. CU lost all of its rushers from last season - not a good sign. This is a unit which might drag CU down to another losing season (9%, 13 Votes)
• Tier One: With the influx of talent, CU's backs are one of the top four units in the Big 12, capable of taking the Buffs to title contention if the rest of the team is equally up to the task (8%, 12 Votes)

• That CU has losing records against only two teams in the new Big 12, and both are newbies to the conference (Utah and Arizona State) (63%, 71 Votes)
• That Colorado played Big 12 Houston and Cincinnati neophytes only once each, in 1971 and 1972, and haven't played either one since (23%, 26 Votes)
• That CU's history with the "Big 12" dates back to 1947, when the Buffs joined the "Big Six" to help form the "Big Seven" (14%, 16 Votes)

• I understand that this is what we have to talk about in early July. I'm ready to move past talk, and get to some action. Four weeks to the start of Fall Camp! (58%, 85 Votes)
• I guess being 27-6 at Jackson State, and turning around a pitiful 1-11 CU team doesn't give you much in the way of Power Four credibility. He'll have to earn a better rating with a winning record (27%, 40 Votes)
• It goes with the extra hype which came with the beginning of the season, and the 1-8 Pac-12 record to finish. If CU had started out 0-3, then gone 4-5 in conference play, the rating would be higher (15%, 21 Votes)
