Only three Pac-12 teams have had fewer players enter the Transfer Portal than has Colorado (three). Thoughts?
  • I like it. It shows that Karl Dorrell and staff have done a good job in retaining players (including most of the 2020 Recruiting Class). It bodes well for the future for this staff and the roster (46%, 118 Votes)
  • I find it interesting that four teams have lost at least 10 players, while ASU and UCLA are gaining ground (adding former four-star recruits). We'll see if this makes a difference going forward (39%, 99 Votes)
  • Not sold. The Transfer Portal is going to be the way to build teams in the future, and so far, CU is not a serious player. That needs to change if the Buffs are going to become competitive (15%, 37 Votes)

The first NET Rankings (the one used by the NCAA Selection Committee) has CU ranked as the No. 14 team in the nation. Thoughts?
  • Nice to see the recognition, but it won't matter unless the Buffs follow through and start winning. Four straight home games give the Buffs a chance to build some positive momentum (65%, 160 Votes)
  • Good news. The Buffs are 7-3, and have played all of two games at home, with the three losses to "quality" Quadrant One teams. Bodes well for the Buffs come March (24%, 59 Votes)
  • Not really news. The Buffs under Tad Boyle have been underachieving the past few years ... and I expect the same will happen again this spring (11%, 26 Votes)

The CU men's basketball team opened Pac-12 play with three games on the road, going 1-2. Rate your level of concern
  • Medium. Starting out with three games on the road, it's hard to push the panic button on a 20-game conference schedule. We'll see how the Buffs do over the next two weekends (75%, 187 Votes)
  • High. This is a down year for Arizona and UCLA, and they were ripe for the taking. Buffs behind the eight ball in the conference race, and it will be hard to recover (17%, 42 Votes)
  • Low. Between the holidays and the Buffs making a bowl game, I haven't paid much attention to the basketball team. I'll start this week - Go Buffs! Beat the Ducks! (8%, 22 Votes)

Star Buff offensive lineman Will Sherman declares for the NFL Draft. Thoughts?
  • Actually, this is a positive for the program. CU needs to show that it can recruit and develop NFL talent along the offensive line. Best of luck to Mr. Sherman (and thanks!) (49%, 152 Votes)
  • Colorado is ten-for-ten in underclassmen declaring and being drafted. I hope Sherman doesn't break the string (also hope that if he isn't drafted, that the new legislation might let him come back) (27%, 84 Votes)
  • A bad weekend for Colorado football. Losing Jason Harris to the transfer portal and Sherman to the NFL. Games are won in the trenches, and CU has lost two good ones (24%, 74 Votes)

Which news item of the day do you find to be the most interesting/surprising?
  • That Colorado is last in the Pac-12 in bowl winning percentage (.400; 8-12), with a four-game losing streak dating back to a win in the 2004 Houston Bowl (66%, 100 Votes)
  • That no fewer than FIVE Pac-12 teams (including four in the South Division) received a present from BYU - QB Zach Wilson is turning pro (19%, 28 Votes)
  • That Arizona has hired a Carroll as its offensive coordinator ... fortunately it's Pete Carroll's son, Brennan (15%, 23 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??? 🙂
