Big XII goes 0-3 against the Sun Belt Conference, with Texas Tech barely holding off FCS Houston Baptist, 35-33. Thoughts?
- At least they are playing. It just goes to show that the Big Ten and Pac-12 missed the boat. It's possible to play football safely ... and CU should be playing! (50%, 115 Votes)
- Love it ... Nice to see former Big XII rivals taking it on the chin. Kansas schools go 0-2 v. Arkansas State and Coastal Carolina. Classic! (35%, 80 Votes)
- Actually, I saw it as a reminder that, as much as we would like to think the Buffs have improved, that this is still a team with new coaches and a new QB ... CU might have lost to a MWC team (15%, 35 Votes)

Report: Big Ten to vote Sunday on returning to play (as early as mid- to late-October). Thoughts?
- This can't be happening. The Big Ten will cave, California and Oregon won't let the Pac-12 play, and the conference will slide (further) into national obscurity (42%, 79 Votes)
- I can see it happening. There has been too much blacklash to Big Ten's decision not to play. With the other three conferences playing, the pressure will be too great to say no again (39%, 72 Votes)
- I doubt it will happen. The conference voted 11-3 not to play, and it would be a bad look to back down now. There is pressure to play, for sure, but the coaches don't get to vote, the Presidents do. (19%, 35 Votes)

Power-Five (other rather, Power Three) football gets underway this weekend. Your interest?
- Low. My Buffs are not playing, so I'm having a hard time getting interested in other football conferences who are playing (43%, 67 Votes)
- Medium. I'm a football fan, so if there is a decent game (very few this weekend, though), I will be paying attention (34%, 53 Votes)
- High. I'm excited to get football underway, whether it's the NFL, the Big 12 or the ACC. Glad to see someone playing football (23%, 36 Votes)

A number of Pac-12 teams are losing stars who are opting out of the 2020/21 season. Thoughts?
- It's good ... as long as CU doesn't lose any of its stars (e.g., Mustafa Johnson/Nate Landman) who the Buffs will need once games recommence (56%, 100 Votes)
- Not a fan. It's diluting the overall product, and will put an asterisk on any victory the Buffs post this "season" (28%, 50 Votes)
- Good for the Buffs. If the Ducks (for example) are down three starters who will be high round NFL picks, it will give CU a better chance at victory next spring (16%, 29 Votes)

University of Nebraska President Ted Carter says the Big Ten could still play this fall: "The fight is still on ... we are ready to play". Thoughts?
- If it means that the Big Ten (and the Pac-12) get started a little earlier (Thanksgiving weekend, with a split season?), then I'm on board ... I just hope that the Pac-12 doesn't get left behind (59%, 112 Votes)
- Give it up, already! The Big Ten voted 11-3 not to play this fall several weeks ago. What exactly has changed since then which would justify a 180-degree change? (24%, 45 Votes)
- I can see it happening now. How can the Big Ten explain away the fact that Pitt (ACC) can play, but not Penn State? Football is underway, and schools and conferences are showing that it can be done (17%, 32 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??? 🙂
