Colorado ranked 86th (out of 126 FBS teams) in the nation by CBS
- About right ... as hard as it is to admit. Just hope the rankings are better in December (72%, 209 Votes)
- Too low. CU is the lowest rated team in the Big 5 conferences, and that just isn't possible (16%, 48 Votes)
- Too high. Until it's proven on the field, the 2012 stats are CU's barometer (12%, 35 Votes)

Nine of 13 of men's BB non-conference opponents won 18 or more games
- Bring 'em on! CU was a lock for an NCAA tournament last season because of its high RPI. (54%, 117 Votes)
- Good to have a few tough non-conference games - plus no true road games outside of the state of Colorado (39%, 84 Votes)
- Too much. CU fans won't be so excited when the Buffs are 8-5 in December (7%, 16 Votes)

As Rick George takes office today as CU's 6th full-time athletic director
- I'm excited. CU now has the right pieces in place to turn things around (49%, 113 Votes)
- I'm cautiously optimistic, but I'll need to see results on the field before I climb on board the optimism train (44%, 103 Votes)
- I'm still pessimistic. As long as Benson and DiStefano are in place, CU will struggle to get ahead (7%, 16 Votes)

My gut feeling about the team after one week of fall camp ...
- I'm feeling better, but not yet sold. I'm hopeful, but need to see the product on the field before buying in (51%, 169 Votes)
- I'm not there. Been burned by optimistic talk before. This team still has a long way to go just to get to mediocre (29%, 97 Votes)
- I'm drinking the Kool-Aid! I'm beginning to think CU is going to surprise a lot of people this fall (20%, 66 Votes)

My reaction when I see Rick Neuheisel's name ...
- Neutral. He's been gone for almost 15 years. I don't associate him with CU any longer (46%, 110 Votes)
- Negative. He dumped CU for Washington ... after lowering CU's level of play (13-10 his last two seasons) (39%, 95 Votes)
- Positive. He was 33-14 as CU's head coach. Why not let go of the venom and embrace the positives? (15%, 36 Votes)

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.
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??? 🙂
