CU opens as a 3.5-point road underdog to Arizona (Saturday, 2:00 p.m., MT, Fox) .Thoughts?
  • If the three-point home advantage is a guide, then what I am taking from this line is that Vegas is seeing this game as a toss up ... and they are probably right (72%, 114 Votes)
  • CU has two road wins this season, but this is going to be a tough environment for the Buffs. Glad the temperatures will be in the 70s instead of the 100s, but I'm surprised the line isn't higher (18%, 29 Votes)
  • Like almost every line affecting the Buffs this season, the line is going to go down over the course of the week. If you want to bet the Buffs, take the points now! (10%, 16 Votes)

No. 18 Kansas State 31, Colorado 28. Thoughts?
  • With the topsy turvy Big 12, the Buffs will be in every game the rest of the season. The Buffs will win some they shouldn't (Baylor) and lose some they should. Enjoy the ride! (34%, 85 Votes)
  • The Buffs rallied from a two-touchdown deficit without Travis and Jimmy Horn. The Buffs showed grit, and will win plenty of games in the second half of the season (33%, 83 Votes)
  • A crushing loss. To have the lead, then give up an 86-yard drive in three plays, and then not get a first down? This one will hurt for awhile (33%, 82 Votes)

It's time! Your prediction for No. 18 Kansas State at Colorado (8:15 p.m., MT, ESPN)
  • This is a game between evenly matched teams, which in and of itself is a sign of progress for the program. If this was a road game, I'd take KSU, but at home? A close CU win (48%, 102 Votes)
  • CU has yet to play a ranked team; KSU has played two - and beaten them both. KSU can run, and can stop the run. Buffs competitive, but Wildcats pull away late (18%, 39 Votes)
  • The nation got a glimpse of how good this team can play in CU's rout of UCF. Buffs make a statement that they should be back in the Top 25 win a big win over K-State! (18%, 37 Votes)
  • This game can go either way, and I'm not sure that the Buffs have all the pieces in place. A close game, with a tough ending - KSU wins a very tight game (16%, 33 Votes)

Which of the following Big 12 games this weekend for you holds the most interest?
  • No. 2 Ohio State at No. 3 Oregon (5:30 p.m., MT, NBC). Who are we trying to kid? Other than the CU game, this is the Game of the Week ... perhaps the Game of the Year (61%, 113 Votes)
  • Arizona at No. 14 BYU (Saturday, 2:00 p.m., Fox). The Wildcats are up next for the Buffs, so it will interesting to see if Arizona goes 2-0 v. the Utah schools (32%, 60 Votes)
  • No. 16 Utah at Arizona State (Friday, 8:30 p.m., MT, ESPN). Will Cam Rising play? Is Arizona State for real? An interesting matchup Friday night (7%, 12 Votes)

Thoughts on "Project Rudy", with a 70-team super league which would eliminate games with other FBS and FCS schools
  • I don't like it. Living in a world where App State can't get a shot at Michigan, and Northern Illinois is barred from playing Notre Dame. This will dilute, if not kill, the sport (43%, 79 Votes)
  • Pluses and minuses. If the league is at 70, CU is surely in - but what if they then cut it to 48 or 36? Would CU make the second cut? On the other hand, being rid of CSU forever sounds good (35%, 64 Votes)
  • I like it, provided Colorado is part of the 70-team list, which it almost certainly would. This is the future, may as well get there sooner rather than later, so Olympic sports can get back to normal (22%, 41 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??? 🙂
