CU cleared by Boulder County Public Health Department to begin "Fall Camp" on Friday. Thoughts?
  • Hip, Hip, Hooray! After almost 11 months, the CU football team will be able to practice as a team. Hard to believe this is actually happening! (51%, 97 Votes)
  • Does this mean we actually get to start arguing over who will be the starting quarterback, and not have it be an awkward hypothetical? Let the debates begin! (25%, 48 Votes)
  • So far, so good. I trust that CU has done all it can to make this a reality, but cases could still arise (or Boulder County could change its mind). Fingers crossed (24%, 44 Votes)

Pac-12 media poll has CU finishing fifth in the Pac-12 South. Thoughts?
  • Sounds about right. CU hasn't been practicing, has a new staff, and will start a new quarterback (I'm actually surprised that CU wasn't picked to finish last) (49%, 102 Votes)
  • I just find it depressing that, in 10 years in the Pac-12, the Buffs have been picked to finish higher than last only three times - and finished last when picked to finish 4th ('17) and 5th ('18) (30%, 63 Votes)
  • Too low. Arizona is a dumpster fire, and the Buffs get UCLA at home (plus a game against 4-8 Stanford). Buffs to finish fourth in the Pac-12 South ... or better! (21%, 45 Votes)

CU to receive $1.625 million over five years from PointsBet. Thoughts on the contract details?
  • Actually, what I like best is that CU is the first in the nation with such a deal. Unlike the Pac-12 as a whole, CU is being a leader, not a follower (66%, 122 Votes)
  • Love it ... A minimum of $1.625 million, with an extra $30 for new customers using CU's promotional code ... at a time when every dollar counts. Well done, CU! (19%, 36 Votes)
  • Not a fan. The NCAA has enough issues with Name, Image and Likeness issues without putting promoted gambling into the mix. CU is sending mixed signals to its athletes (15%, 27 Votes)

SportsBetting.ag has set the over/under for CU wins this fall at 1.5. Would you take the bet?
  • Yes. The Buffs are going to surprise this year. They are not going to win the division, but they are going to win at least two games (52%, 120 Votes)
  • It depends ... are we assuming that the Buffs will get to play all seven games. If they play all seven games, then take the bet, but I'm not sure they will (26%, 59 Votes)
  • No. As much as we would like to sugar-coat it, a new coach, a new quarterback, and no practices is a lethal combination (22%, 52 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??? 🙂
