The cancellation of the NCAA basketball tournament ends CU's season. Thoughts?
  • Sorry for the players - for the men who won't get a chance at redemption, and doubly sorry for the CU women's team, which would have been hosting WNIT games (46%, 136 Votes)
  • Actually a good thing. The NCAA tournament would have led to another embarrassing loss to close out the season - or an even more embarrassing omission from March Madness altogether (34%, 102 Votes)
  • Not to sound too cynical, but would it have been too much to ask that the games be canceled before the Buffs laid an egg against the Cougars? (20%, 59 Votes)

What do you make of the Buffs' five-game losing streak?
  • An unforgivable, inexplicable and embarrassing collapse. I hate to say it, but perhaps CU can do better than Tad Boyle ... (41%, 97 Votes)
  • Anyone else notice this is reminiscent of what Mike MacIntyre's teams did in November? Anyone else notice than CU hasn't won a game since Karl Dorrell was hired? Damn, it's tough to be a Buff (39%, 92 Votes)
  • It's tough - the first time a Tad Boyle team has lost a first-round conference tournament game - but the Buffs will still likely make the NCAA tournament, and everyone starts 0-0 in the Big Dance (20%, 48 Votes)

NCAA: football attendance totals in 2019 were the lowest since 1996 ... Has your CU viewing changed in recent years?
  • No. I attend a few games/don't attend games, and that will be the same for me this fall (42%, 136 Votes)
  • No. I've been a season ticket holder in the past, and will be a season ticket holder in 2020 (29%, 95 Votes)
  • Yes. I used to be a season ticket holder, but now I will only attend a few games here and there or not at all (too expensive; poor play drove me away) (21%, 69 Votes)
  • Yes. I used to attend a few games/didn't attend games, but I plan on attending more games this fall and into the future (8%, 23 Votes)

Defensive lineman Antonio Alfano suspended indefinitely for violating team rules. Your reaction?
  • "Suspended indefinitely" doesn't (necessarily) mean dismissed. Here's hoping that Alfano will find his way back into good graces with the program, and finds his way onto the field as a Buff (38%, 168 Votes)
  • You can't miss what you never had. At least CU has quality depth returning along the defensive line. CU needs dedicated players, not head cases, so it's better to know now if Alfano isn't all in (33%, 145 Votes)
  • Sigh. Another five-star flameout for CU. Once again "CU is not allowed to have nice things" rears its ugly head. Darrell Scott, Marcus Houston, Lynn Katoa, Craig Ochs ... etc., etc., etc. ... (29%, 132 Votes)

What grade would you give the assistant coaches on defense hired by Karl Dorrell?
  • A B ... Summers still has something to prove as a DC, but Michalowski is a proven recruiter, and Martin, Maxie and Wilson are proven talents (57%, 198 Votes)
  • An A ... Keeping Tyson Summers and Brian Michalowski, and adding three quality assistants ... well done, Coach Dorrell! (24%, 84 Votes)
  • A C ... Let's not forget that CU gave up over 30 points/game last season (worst in five years) under Tyson Summers. Fingers crossed that he will fare better in Year Two (15%, 51 Votes)
  • A D ... Keeping Summers was a mistake, and two of the three new assistants were not in college football (read: not recruiting) last year. Not a great combination (4%, 13 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??? 🙂
