Buffs up to a four-point favorite over the Rams in the season opener
  • Give the points. CU won last year, 41-27, and the 2014 team is better than the 2013 team (48%, 70 Votes)
  • Still too early to tell. Ask me again around August 20th ... (38%, 56 Votes)
  • Take the points. A 4-8 team favored over an 8-4 team? Nice recognition for CU, but not a safe bet (14%, 20 Votes)

CU picks up Providence transfer guard Josh Fortune
  • A good move. Tad & Co. have proven record of identifying and developing talent. I trust Tad! (58%, 121 Votes)
  • A great pickup. A two-year starter for the Friars with tremendous upside (29%, 60 Votes)
  • A questionable move. Rather than develop from within, Buffs opt for a streaky shooter who left Providence for unknown reasons (13%, 26 Votes)

How will the USA's run in the World Cup affect soccer in America?
  • A short spike in popularity. Soccer will continue to grow, but very, very slowly (56%, 111 Votes)
  • No change. Just like with the Olympic sports, interest will spike then quickly fade. Fans will tune out again until 2018 (29%, 57 Votes)
  • Sustained popularity. All of the close contests have U.S. fans hooked on the drama of the game (15%, 30 Votes)

No significant changes expected for CU uniforms this fall ...
  • Good news. CU's traditional uniforms are one of the nation's best. Don't mess with success (53%, 101 Votes)
  • Don't really care one way or the other. Winning more games - that I care about (33%, 62 Votes)
  • Not good news. Players today like change and new styles. Ask Oregon if losing traditional uniforms has hurt recruiting (14%, 26 Votes)

NCAA now allowing programs to pay players to work at camps
  • Good idea. Players get paid, and can learn a few things about coaching along the way (54%, 83 Votes)
  • Just a band-aid on a flesh wound - a stop-gap measure on the road to "pay-for-play" (26%, 40 Votes)
  • Bad idea. Coaches paying players? Hmmm - can't see that ever becoming a problem!! (20%, 31 Votes)

  1. 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!!

  2. Stuart, your polls are so thoughtful and on point. Appreciate you doing this and sharing it with your CUAtTheGame community.

  3. 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??? 🙂
