California 33, Colorado 21. Thoughts?
  • I'm just glad that the 2018 season can finally be put behind us. How soon can we get a new coach, and turn the page to 2019? (67%, 288 Votes)
  • A perfect ending to a perfectly terrible season. The CU football program deserves all of the derisive comments it will receive over the next nine months for a pitiful 0-7 run (22%, 96 Votes)
  • I know that the Buffs will be met with scathing criticism for finishing with seven straight losses, but I'm proud of how this team fought back from a 21-0 first quarter deficit (11%, 47 Votes)

It's time! Your prediction for CU's regular season finale against Cal ...
  • With nothing to lose, the Buffs will open it up on offense and take chances on defense. Buffs win and become bowl eligible! (43%, 143 Votes)
  • I can see the Buffs coming out with some fire, but it won't last. Cal has a better team right now, and will take care of business in the second half with a close win (37%, 122 Votes)
  • I foresee a train wreck. The team will not be prepared to take on a better team on the road. Cal wins going away as the Buffs just want to see this season come to an end (20%, 66 Votes)

Which Pac-12 game this weekend holds the most interest for you?
  • No. 16 Washington at No. 8 Washington State - Can Mike Leach break his winless streak against Chris Petersen, and continue the Cougars run to an improbable Pac-12 title? (84%, 249 Votes)
  • No. 3 Notre Dame at USC - Will this be Clay Helton's last game? Can Helton hang onto his job if the Trojans finish 5-7? (14%, 42 Votes)
  • Arizona State at Arizona - Which new coach will win their first Territorial Cup? Will Arizona finish 5-7 and out of the bowls? (2%, 6 Votes)
  • Oregon at Oregon State - The last time the two teams played in Corvallis ... the Beavers won (0%, 0 Votes)

Will Laviska Shenault or Travon McMillian (or both) reach 1,000 yards?
  • Both. Shenault needs just 54 yards receiving; McMillian needs just 49 yards rushing. CU will get its first-ever season with both a 1,000-yard rusher and 1,000-yard receiver! (86%, 221 Votes)
  • I can see Shenault getting his yards because he'll get the ball in space and make it happen, but I can't see McMillian getting his yards against the Cal defense (11%, 27 Votes)
  • Neither. The Colorado defense has been going in reverse for weeks, and Cal has a great defense. The Bears will take away CU's two remaining offensive threats (3%, 8 Votes)

What would be your expectations from the new coach in 2019?
  • A bowl game in season one. A winning season every needs to become the new baseline for success, and CU can build from there (53%, 183 Votes)
  • An efficient offense and a stalwart defense. No reason that a team with this much returning talent can win eight or nine games (28%, 95 Votes)
  • I'm not sure the 2019 Buffs are going bowling, regardless of who is coaching. Nebraska and Air Force in non-conference, Oregon and Stanford replace Oregon State and Cal in Pac-12 play (19%, 67 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??? 🙂
