Which of the following Big 12 games this weekend for you holds the most interest?
  • No Big 12 games this weekend interest me, frankly. The Buffs are 15th in a 16th team league, and are three-score underdogs in their finale. I'm going to watch games which actually mean something (64%, 49 Votes)
  • No. 25 Arizona at No. 20 Arizona State ... Friday, 7:00 p.m., Fox ... The Territorial Cup is all about bragging rights for 2026, in a game between two good teams (29%, 22 Votes)
  • No. 5 Texas Tech at West Virginia ... Saturday, 10:00 a.m., ESPN. The Red Raiders control their destiny to the Big 12 title game, and the playoffs. Texas Tech can't afford a stumble this late (7%, 6 Votes)

Rate your level of interest in the season finale against Kansas State (Saturday, 10:00 a.m., MT, FS1)
  • Low. If the Buffs have checked out, why shouldn't I? Kaidon Salter will start, and CU is using offensive linemen at defensive tackle. I have better things to do that to track a rout in the making (43%, 64 Votes)
  • High. Buff born; Buff bred; Buff fan until I'm dead. There are only 12 CU Saturdays a season, and I am with my Buffs come Hell or high water, and that includes this Saturday (36%, 54 Votes)
  • Medium. I reserve the right to pay closer attention to the Ohio State/Michigan game, but I will be tracking the CU game ... with hope of having reason to watch in the second half (21%, 30 Votes)

Kaidon Salter will start against Kansas State so Julian Lewis can preserve his redshirt. Thoughts?
  • I'm just hoping - though I'm not sure how - that this means that Lewis is committed to staying with CU and Coach Prime. I don't care about K-State ... I care about the 2026 season (68%, 123 Votes)
  • Sounds like a good idea. CU isn't going to beat Kansas State anyway, and if this gives Lewis the chance at a full season in 2029 by not playing in a fifth game, it's worth the trade off (18%, 33 Votes)
  • Doesn't really matter. Lewis is a five-star player, and likely doesn't see himself still being in college in 2029, so burning his redshirt - or not - has little meaning in the long run (14%, 25 Votes)

Coach Prime travels to Las Vegas to watch son Shedeur make his first career start. Thoughts?
  • Fine with it. Getting the NFL start is a lifelong dream for Shedeur and his father. Coach Prime has the resources to go to Vegas and back in short order. No problem with Coach Prime's trip (54%, 98 Votes)
  • I think this was an acceptable exception. If Shedeur had gotten a start earlier in the season, or if the game was further away than Vegas, it might be a different story (29%, 53 Votes)
  • You think Kansas State coach Chris Klieman was watching NFL games on Sunday? Me, neither. Coach Prime is getting paid millions to coach CU ... and isn't getting results. Not a good look (17%, 31 Votes)

Colorado opens as a 17.5-point underdog to Kansas State (Saturday, 10:00 a.m., MT, FS1). Thoughts?
  • I'm just glad that the game will be played at the same time as the Michigan/Ohio State game, so no one will be watching this game as the Buffs limp their way to the end of the season (47%, 75 Votes)
  • Let's see ... CU gave up 355 yards rushing to Arizona State, while Kansas State ran for 472 yards against a top ten Utah defense. This could be a rout of epic proportions (41%, 64 Votes)
  • Kansas State played its Super Bowl against Utah, and still lost, blowing a ten-point lead in the last three minutes. CU could actually cover this spread against a down KSU squad (12%, 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??? 🙂
