College Football News: CU the 70th-best team in the nation
- Too low. By CFN's rankings, CU will go 3-9. I have to believe the Buffs will be better than that (51%, 132 Votes)
- About right. Buffs 11th in the conference, and the schedule will likely keep them there (43%, 112 Votes)
- Too high. Hate to bring up the 2-25 Pac-12 record again, but ... (6%, 16 Votes)
Start Date: May 5, 2016 @ 6:07 pm

- Too Low. Buffs are light years ahead of where they were three years ago (24%, 61 Votes)
- Too High. A 2-25 conference record. No other Power-Five coach has so poor a record (8%, 20 Votes)

Thomas Akyazili will play in Belgium this summer
- Good idea. Strong European league competition will help prepare Akyazili for next season (75%, 166 Votes)
- Not interested either way. I'll get back to basketball next January (18%, 39 Votes)
- Bad idea. Akyazili should be practicing with his teammates ... and avoiding additional risk of injury (7%, 16 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??? 🙂
