- Buffs sweep final three games; earn bowl bid! (23%, 55 Votes)
- It's hard to predict in July, but for now ... it would be nice to get one win out of that final group of games (21%, 53 Votes)

Colorado picked (by a wide margin) to finish last in the Pac-12
- It's not as bad as the media portrays. Buffs will be competitive and will not finish in the cellar. (64%, 144 Votes)
- Sad but true. Fact is, Buffs are too young to compete right now in this league (28%, 64 Votes)
- USC and Oregon overwhelming favorties - everyone else chasing No. 2 positions (8%, 18 Votes)

Penn State levied $60 million sanctions; loss of scholarships and bowl bids
- About right. It will cripple, but not destroy, the program. A good deterrent for others (60%, 159 Votes)
- Not enough. The "death penalty" was warranted in this case. (28%, 73 Votes)
- Too much. Punishing current players for something they had nothing to do with. (12%, 33 Votes)

Big Ten was considering giving commissioner authority to fire coaches
- Not a good idea. If schools need the league to monitor them, the league is out of control (78%, 147 Votes)
- Maybe. It would be okay, but the power must be limited and well defined (15%, 28 Votes)
- In the wake of Penn State, this doesn't sound like a bad idea (7%, 13 Votes)

Buffs best chance at an upset in games seven through nine
- Stanford - November in Boulder: Cold chills Luck-less Cardinal (76%, 207 Votes)

- Oregon - Ducks over-confident, caught looking ahead to USC game (3%, 8 Votes)
- USC - Trojans beset by injuries, caught looking ahead to Oregon game (3%, 6 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??? 🙂
