No. 6 Stanford defeats No. 2 Oregon, 26-20
- Bad result for the Pac-12. Barring upsets, the conference is again going to be shut out of the national championship game (53%, 130 Votes)
- It works for me ... if only to have Nike U. knocked down a peg or two (33%, 79 Votes)
- Good result for the Pac-12. It shows the nation that the league has two championship caliber teams (14%, 34 Votes)

My preseason prediction for CU men's basketball
- Top three in Pac-12. In and out of the Top 25. One win in the Big Dance (52%, 114 Votes)
- Top two in Pac-12. Top 25 ranking. Sweet Sixteen in March (25%, 55 Votes)
- Top four in the Pac-12. One or two weeks ranked. One and done in the NCAA tournament (15%, 33 Votes)
- Outside the top four in the Pac-12. A bubble team most of the season (8%, 17 Votes)

If CU goes winless in November ...
- I guess I could live with it, but only if the Buffs continue to show improvement and stay competitive (45%, 105 Votes)
- It will be a disappointment, but this team has already won three games. Baby steps, but still quite an improvement over 1-11 (34%, 80 Votes)
- It will be a huge step back. Even the 2012 team - the worst team in CU history - won a Pac-12 game (21%, 47 Votes)

Red-shirt freshman forward Chris Jenkins leaving basketball team
- Okay by me. Jenkins probably wouldn't have played much, and this frees up another scholarship for a potentially higher-rated recruit (54%, 112 Votes)
- To be honest, I don't even know who Chris Jenkins is (36%, 74 Votes)
- Not a good sign. Five days before the start of the season? This can't help team depth or chemistry (10%, 21 Votes)

My prediction for the next four games ...
- 2-2 ... A win over Cal, plus a win over USC or Utah (41%, 124 Votes)
- 1-3 ... Only the Cal game looks like a win, but 4-8 is still an improvement! (38%, 117 Votes)
- 0-4 ... Can't predict CU will win a Pac-12 game ... until they actually win one (11%, 35 Votes)
- 3-1 ... A loss to Washington, but the other three games are winnable (6%, 18 Votes)
- 4-0 ... Why not? Buffs are playing better and better (4%, 11 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??? 🙂
