Will Utah - No. 6 in College Football Playoff Rankings - make the College Football Playoffs?
  • No. The Utes won't even make it to the Pac-12 title game, falling this Saturday to the Mighty Buffs of Colorado! (43%, 159 Votes)
  • No. The Utes will likely beat the Buffs and Ducks, but won't get in - east coast bias will prevent the Utes from a top four finish (37%, 137 Votes)
  • No. The Utes will fall to the angry birds of Oregon in the Pac-12 title game, and have to settle for an Alamo Bowl berth (15%, 55 Votes)
  • Yes. The Utes look like they will be the Pac-12 champions, and the 12-1 Utes will earn a top four ranking and a playoff berth (5%, 21 Votes)

Utah installed as a four-touchdown favorite over Colorado. Thoughts?
  • I can see how Vegas would heavily favor the Utes, but the weather (high of 27; low of 12) may keep the game closer than they expect (46%, 159 Votes)
  • Way too high. Las Vegas hasn't noticed the way CU has been playing. That's a bigger spread than the total points allowed to Stanford and Washington. Buffs have a real shot at a win here (31%, 108 Votes)
  • About right, I'm afraid. In the last 15 quarters at home, the Ute defense has allowed exactly zero touchdowns. WSU, Cal, ASU and UCLA scored a COMBINED total of 19 points in Salt Lake City (23%, 80 Votes)

Which unit most impressed you in the 20-14 win over Washington?
  • The defense. Five sacks and five three-and-outs? An exceptional effort for a unit which has now given up only 27 points in two games - after giving up 30+ points in 14 straight games (96%, 366 Votes)
  • The offense. The line was dominant, especially in the decisive fourth quarter when the Buffs were able to run out the final five minutes of clock (3%, 11 Votes)
  • Special teams. Alex Kinney was a weapon, and the Buffs actually had more punt return yards than Washington had given up all season (1%, 6 Votes)

Colorado defeats Washington, 20-14. Thoughts?
  • Holy crap! A great win for the seniors, a great win for the program. The Recruiting Class had to be watching this game - it's all good!! (58%, 291 Votes)
  • On to Utah, with a chance at a bowl game. I don't know if the Buffs can pick up win number six, but a 5-7 season feels a whole lot better this season than the last two 5-7 seasons (27%, 137 Votes)
  • A fun win, but it just makes the losses to Air Force, Arizona and USC all the more frustrating (15%, 72 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??? 🙂
