What to you is the most egregious prediction from the College Football News 1-130 ranking?
- Listing UCLA as the No. 23 team in the nation. The Bruins haven't had a winning season since 2015. UCLA continues to live on reputation ... and that reputation should be on fumes by now (46%, 88 Votes)
- That Arizona State is ranked at No 19. The Sun Devils were 2-2 last year, and only played four games because of its egregious and blatant disregard of recruiting rules. Will Herm even be the coach? (43%, 81 Votes)
- Predictions for CU. While the No. 46 ranking may be close to be on the mark, the prediction of a 4-8 record is not giving CU enough credit for how the Buffs will fare (11%, 21 Votes)

CU receives a commitment from three-star defensive lineman Erick Conley from Houston. Thoughts?
- Like it. At 6'4", 250-pounds as a junior, Conley really looks the part. Oh, and he has a 4.45 GPA and wants to be a neuroscientist. Got to like a cerebral defensive lineman! (40%, 89 Votes)
- So, seven of the 11 commitments CU has from the Class of 2022 are from Texas? Sure sounds like a trend to me. If it plays out well, this could be the start of a great new pipeline for the program (33%, 72 Votes)
- So, he's from Texas, and yet was not rated by 247 Sports at the time of his commitment? I trust this coaching staff to find diamonds in the rough, but too much of this Class is suspect (27%, 60 Votes)

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??? 🙂
