My prediction for the CU/Washington State game
- Buffs play with more spirit than shown in Fresno, but big plays surrendered by defense doom Buffs to 0-4 start. (46%, 123 Votes)
- Ugh-A-Lee. Cougars score early and often. A blowout loss. (34%, 90 Votes)
- Don't stop believing! Buffs in an upset! (18%, 48 Votes)
- Just like the 2011 game - Buffs up early, but fall in fourth quarter (2%, 5 Votes)

Bill McCartney calls out "disloyal" Buff fans
- I'm going to support the team, but I don't see being critical as being disloyal (54%, 120 Votes)
- Coach Mac is right. Let's "circle the wagons" and support the team! Embree is the long-term solution (23%, 52 Votes)
- Coach Mac is blinded by his own loyalty. Any average fan can see Embree is in over his head, and needs to go (23%, 52 Votes)

The low point in CU football history ...
- Now ... and the rest of 2012. The worst is yet to come later this year. (75%, 181 Votes)
- The early '80's. Six straight losing seasons/Two 1-10 seasons/Chuck Fairbanks (15%, 37 Votes)
- End of 2005, start of 2006. Barnett and scandal/ 70-3 loss to Texas/loss to Montana State/ten straight losses (9%, 22 Votes)
- Other. There have been even worse times than those listed (1%, 1 Votes)

My updated prediction for Colorado victories this season ...
- Zero. Are you kidding me? Right now, the Buffs couldn't win an intra-squad scrimmage (71%, 198 Votes)
- One win. Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn once in awhile. (20%, 56 Votes)
- Two or more wins. Buffs do have some talent. They just need a few breaks and a jolt of confidence (9%, 25 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??? 🙂
