Which of the following quotes from Coach Prime's post-Spring game press conference do you like the best?
- "We still have a lot of people out there who are excited about CU football ...We're going to make this better. We're not trying to make it better. We're making it better" (42%, 41 Votes)
- "Each year, the offensive line has gotten a little better. We have probably eight or nine guys who are fighting to start. We're going to be all right, running the football" (35%, 34 Votes)
- "I'm going to be here, especially with the corners. It's different when I'm here. Everyone can tell you that it's different when I'm here. I will be going fishing, but I'll be here" (23%, 23 Votes)

What did you take away from CU's 2026 Spring Game?
- That CU wasn't going to show much to the opposition, keeping everything vanilla. I hope that the coaching staff has plenty left in the bag, because there was a decided lack of fireworks on display (50%, 72 Votes)
- That CU remains one of the most under-sized teams in the country. The lines were supposed to be beefed up this off-season, but I'm not so sure. Buffs could get pushed around (again) this fall (34%, 49 Votes)
- That CU has plenty of talent in the skill positions, including quarterback. Even with some top wide receivers out, there was plenty of talent on display. I liked the energy and the spirit (16%, 24 Votes)

What are you looking for from the Buffs in the Spring Game?
- No injuries. We know that the offense (and defense, to an extent) will be vanilla. Have a few video highlight plays for the fans on hand, and leave the Buff Nation with hope for the season (72%, 120 Votes)
- A successful offense. Coach Prime is looking for 30 points a game from this offense (because the defense will give up that many). There needs to be showing of a functional "Go-Go" offense (19%, 31 Votes)
- A decent defense. There are so few defensive tackles on the roster, and few linebackers. Will there be any standouts? It would be encouraging to see some Alphas on CU's defense this weekend (9%, 15 Votes)

ESPN's Bill Connelly rates CU No. 3 on his list of favorite Transfer Portal Classes. Thoughts?
- Glad for the positive press, but I'm not sure that this has as much to do with volume as it does quality. CU has had highly rated Transfer Classes under Coach Prime. We'll see how this translates (42%, 35 Votes)
- I like it, especially because Connelly has seemingly gone out of his way to downgrade CU in the Coach Prime era. In a time when national press has little good to say about CU, this is refreshing (33%, 27 Votes)
- Well, six teams from the Big 12 made the list, including five in the top ten. Just another sign that CU has a great deal of work to do to move up from No. 15 in the Big 12 (25%, 21 Votes)

Which of the following quotes from Coach Prime's press conference do you like the best?
- "We're getting better, starting with me. I like what I'm seeing from the young men that we've chosen, from everything all the way around. I feel really good about what's going on" (49%, 52 Votes)
- "We've got a three man fight at linebacker right now… those guys are really, really good. The pass rushers on the outside, it's five or six guys that can get home" (33%, 35 Votes)
- “The staff that we have. I think it is tremendous. I think you guys are really sleeping on the staff and what they bring to the table, the different components of it" (18%, 19 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??? 🙂
