CU picks up a commitment from three-star in-state wide receiver, Ty Robinson. Thoughts?
  • I like that this staff, even with all of the limitations this year has brought, is finding not only quality recruits, but in-state stars (to quiet critics that CU doesn't adequately recruit in-state) (52%, 116 Votes)
  • What's not to like? An quality in-state prospect with Power-Five offers? Robinson checks all of the boxes (29%, 65 Votes)
  • Nice to beat out Utah and Kansas State for a prospect, but with such a small Recruiting Class, is another receiver what CU should be looking for at this point? (19%, 40 Votes)

  • 2001: No. 14 Colorado 62, No. 2 Nebraska 36 - The game led to CU's only Big 12 title ... and gave the Husker Nation a loss from which it still hasn't recovered! (48%, 113 Votes)

Which of the following offensive stars - who didn't make my Top 40 - would have made your list?

The NCAA limits non playing teams to 12 hours per week of practices. Thoughts?
  • I just wish that Karl Dorrell & Co. could have gotten in a week or two of actual practices before they pulled the plug. Nothing in the spring; nothing in the fall. Not good (41%, 69 Votes)
  • Another blow to the Pac-12 and Big Ten. The other conferences get to have full practices, while our teams are restricted. Not happy (37%, 62 Votes)
  • Makes little or no difference. There won't be any non-conference games until September, 2021 at the earliest, so the Pac-12 and Big Ten are not at a big disadvantage (22%, 36 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??? 🙂
