CU Athletic Director Fernando Lovo: "Our goal has to be playing meaningful games in November and December". Thoughts?
  • A true statement. With three bowl games in the past 20 seasons, getting to six wins and a bowl bid has to be Job One this fall. "Strive for Six" ... and get there this time! (62%, 46 Votes)
  • Seems like a low bar. CU could be playing "meaningful" games in November ... with a 3-6 record, praying for a three-game winning streak. Buffs need to be playing meaningful games from September on (19%, 14 Votes)
  • Lovo is preparing us for a tough season. CU's goal needs to be championships, not just having a few meaningful games (to hopefully win) late in the season. Defeatism from the AD - in Year One. Sigh! (19%, 14 Votes)

Chances that CU's offensive line play exceeds that of last season ...
  • Medium. CU did go after transfers with playing experience instead of stars. Oh, and it won't be hard to beat the unit which was in the 100s nationally in rushing offense and total offense (44%, 93 Votes)
  • High. Coach Prime says he has eight or nine offensive linemen who can start. It's not just about talent, it's about depth, and, for once, CU has both. This line will make the "Go-Go" offense go! (38%, 82 Votes)
  • Low. The off-season is always the time to be optimistic, but you're trying to tell me that CU lost a first round NFL Draft pick in Jordan Seaton ... and is going to be better? Seeing is believing (18%, 38 Votes)

CU to open Fall Camp with a week in Colorado Springs. Thoughts?
  • I like it. Team bonding is important, especially when half the team is new to the program. Get out of Boulder (and its distractions), and focus on football (51%, 87 Votes)
  • I'm just glad that we are talking about football, even if it's just Fall Camp. It has been a looonnnggg off-season. I'm tired of bad forecasts for CU's season - let's get to football! (28%, 47 Votes)
  • Kinda sounds like a gimmick to me. Think of the logistics - all the equipment, housing and feeding over 100 athletes, medical treatments. CU has a state-of-the-art facility - use it! (21%, 36 Votes)

If the Big 12 were to expand to 19 teams, would Washington State, Oregon State and UNLV be the best options?
  • No, but that's not the main issue. The first issue is whether any teams will be snapped up by the SEC or Big Ten (if you read Texas Tech message boards, they are sure they're on their way up (42%, 33 Votes)
  • Yes. Washington State and Oregon State are the logical choices from the west, with their recent Power Five history. After that, it would be either UNLV or Boise State (36%, 28 Votes)
  • All I care about is that Colorado State is not part of the discussion. If there are to be 76 Power Four teams, please make sure that the Rams are not part of the discussion (22%, 17 Votes)

Which of the following CU road games do you believe is the most winnable?
  • Saturday, October 24th at Oklahoma State. I don't get the hype. Yes, the Cowboys will be better with Mestemaker, but there will be 11 new starters on defense. Oklahoma State isn't Indiana (50%, 74 Votes)
  • Thursday, September 3rd at Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets lost their star quarterback and both coordinators. Georgia Tech will be the first to be exposed to CU's Go-Go offense (43%, 64 Votes)
  • Saturday, November 9th at Arizona State. Don't look now, but the bloom is falling off of Kenny Dillingham's rose. Down to 8-5 last season, the Sun Devils also lost Sam Leavitt to LSU (7%, 11 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??? 🙂
