Which of the following Pac-12 games for you holds the most interest?
- None of the above. I, like my Buffs, am taking the weekend off. I need a break from college football, thank you very much! (37%, 83 Votes)
- Stanford at No. 22 Arizona State (Friday) - ASU favored by 13 points. Can Stanford pull off two upsets in a row? Is ASU the clear favorite in the Pac-South? (36%, 81 Votes)
- Utah at USC - Trojans a 3.0-point favorite. An elimination game in the Pac-12 South division race? (19%, 42 Votes)
- UCLA at Arizona - Bruins a 16.0-point favorite. Will the Wildcats come to Boulder on a 16-game losing streak? Or will the Wildcats upset the Bruins in the desert? (5%, 11 Votes)
- Oregon State at Washington State - Beavers favored by 3.5-points. Both teams coming off of impressive wins - which program is an actual contender in the North division? (3%, 7 Votes)

OG Casey Roddick: โ(The opponents) are giving us some hard boxes to run the ball against; seven-man, eight-man boxes are definitely tough to run the ball against"
- Translation: "We have no passing game, and everyone in the stadium knows it. Don't blame us when the running game fails. We have five guys trying to block seven" (72%, 209 Votes)
- I'm hopeful - but not expecting - that the bye week will lead to some changes, with the "new" offense having time to build some continuity before next weekend (22%, 63 Votes)
- It's good to see that the offensive line is taking upon itself to make the offense work. Reality is that if the line doesn't work, the offense doesn't work (6%, 17 Votes)

Which of the following Karl Dorrell quotes gives you the most optimism about the Buffs going forward?
- "If Drew Carter has a great week and he feels like he's ready for an opportunity to play, which is definitely where he's trending to, that's something we need to discuss next week" (59%, 138 Votes)
- "I gave the coaches a mandate about talking to every one of their players about what are one or two attributes that we have to fix this week so we can carry on that improvement going forward" (26%, 60 Votes)
- "There's still a lot to play for ... there's things in front of us that we can control, at least that we can try to address and to play better and to get ourselves in position to win" (15%, 37 Votes)

What is your level of interest in Colorado football right now?
- I'm just glad there is a bye week. The Buffs (and their fans) need a week to hit the refresh button. I'm angry and upset now, but I'll be back watching my Buffs next Saturday (49%, 171 Votes)
- Well, I've been through (fill in the blank ... 1,2,3,4,5,6) ten-loss seasons, so I guess I'll endure another one. I'll bleed black-and-gold 'till I die! (34%, 119 Votes)
- Are you kidding? With the program a dumpster fire, and no hope for relief in sight, I'm out!! (Except to get on message boards to tell people that I'm out, of course!) (17%, 57 Votes)

Karl Dorrell apologizes for pushing the camera of a local photojournalist - "That is not who I am". Thoughts?
- Is it a good look for Dorrell and the University? No. Is it a good time for the coach to be making adverse news? No. Do I think anything more will come of it? No. (50%, 205 Votes)
- Much ado about very little. He didn't make any contact with the media member. Dorrell was just trying to cover up the camera. Should he have done it? No. Is it a big deal? No. (43%, 175 Votes)
- Cause for immediate termination. This type of behavior cannot be tolerated by anyone, much less a public figure making millions of dollars representing the University. Done and done (7%, 27 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??? ๐
