Rate CU's chances of victory against No. 9 Arizona ...
  • Fair. It's late February, and the Buffs have yet to show up for an important game (66%, 187 Votes)

  • 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)

  1. Stuart:

    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.

  2. 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!!

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

  4. 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??? 🙂
