CU now at 19-9, 8-7 ... my updated feelings about the NCAA tournament
  • Fair. Limping to the finish with a (likely) 1-4 record, Buffs are now a bubble team (52%, 134 Votes)
  • Good. If Buffs hold serve against Arizona State and win a game or two in Pac-12 tourney, they're in (41%, 106 Votes)
  • Still excellent. RPI still good; still no bad losses. Even a 9-9 Pac-12 team gets in (7%, 19 Votes)

Which young defensive lineman will have the greatest impact in 2016?
  • None of the above. CU has so many seniors that underclassmen won't see much playing time (49%, 109 Votes)
  • A sophomore - Eddy Lopez or Michael Mathewes (27%, 60 Votes)
  • A red-shirt freshman - Frank Umu or Brett Tonz (15%, 33 Votes)
  • A true freshman - Terriek Roberts or (back from LDS mission) Sam Bennion (9%, 19 Votes)

Your assessment of the CU offensive line heading into spring ball:
  • Fair. Until proven otherwise, the weakest link of the offense (58%, 135 Votes)
  • Good. If Jeromy Irwin makes it all the way back this fall, there will be real improvement (38%, 87 Votes)
  • Excellent. Six players with starting experience back, with young stars on the way (4%, 9 Votes)

Thoughts on CU not havng a designated special teams coach
  • Not sure ... but the Buffs definitely need to do something different than in past seasons (59%, 167 Votes)
  • A bad idea. If no one is in charge, no one is responsible to ensure a better product on the field (26%, 73 Votes)
  • A good idea. As coach Mac put it - everyone on the staff will be accountable for improvement (15%, 42 Votes)

What I am taking from the 79-72 loss to USC ...
  • Frustration. Buffs once again show they can't play a complete game on the road (58%, 152 Votes)
  • Resignation. USC game probably foreshadowing how the Buffs will fare in the Pac-12 and NCAA tournaments (31%, 82 Votes)
  • Actually, some solace. It was good to get Josh Scott back, and the team can (and will) learn from this defeat (11%, 27 Votes)

  1. 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!!

  2. Stuart, your polls are so thoughtful and on point. Appreciate you doing this and sharing it with your CUAtTheGame community.

  3. 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??? 🙂
