If Baylor called and asked to play the 2016 opener against CU in Australia ...
- Bad idea. CU has trouble with its schedule getting six home games in Folsom as it is (46%, 102 Votes)
- Only if it would mean dumping the CSU game in Denver 😉 (35%, 78 Votes)
- Great idea. The publicity for the program would be a positive boost (19%, 40 Votes)

Consensus Preseason Top 128 picks has CU at No. 73 nationally
- About right. It is what it is. It's hard to justify the Buffs being ranked above any other Pac-12 team right now (57%, 123 Votes)
- Too low. CU has been down so long, it's very easy (but incorrect) to downgrade the Buffs' prospects (36%, 77 Votes)
- Too high. When you go 0-9 in conference play, and there are no drop offs amongst the other teams, it's hard to predict improvement (7%, 15 Votes)

Early Signing Day (December 16th) likely to be passed this week
- Like it. But I'm with Coach Mac that August would be better than December (46%, 67 Votes)
- Love it! Makes no sense to wait until February ... and might lower defection rates (29%, 43 Votes)
- Hate it! California schools will have a big advantage, as they can get local kids in for official visits during the season (25%, 36 Votes)

Phil Steele has pegged CU as one of the ten most improved teams in the nation
- Excellent news! It's nice to see a major publication recognize that CU is a team on the rise (53%, 119 Votes)
- Good news ... But it's sobering to think CU could triple its win total - and still not make a bowl game (36%, 81 Votes)
- Not news. When you are 2-10, there is nowhere to go but up (11%, 26 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??? 🙂
