Colorado is a 7.0-point underdog at home to Washington. Thoughts?
  • The Buffs are a different team at home. I'm betting Nate Landman will play, and the team will come out ready to put the stink of the UCLA game behind them. Buffs win one for the seniors! (35%, 92 Votes)
  • Two struggling offenses. The Huskies have a better defense, but the Buffs are at home. I wouldn't bet on the Buffs winning, but it should be a close finish either way (34%, 89 Votes)
  • Did you see the Buffs Saturday night? When the Buffs last imploded like that (see: Oregon State, 2018), the Buffs didn't win another game. The Huskies still have a bowl to play for, and will dominate (31%, 82 Votes)

Washington fires head coach Jimmy Lake. How do you think it will affect the CU/Washington game this weekend?
  • It won't/shouldn't make any difference. It games like this, it comes down to who wants it more. It's senior day for the Buffs - hopefully they will want it more (67%, 187 Votes)
  • It hurts the Buffs. Washington still has a bowl bid to play for, and now know their coach's fate. They will rally - and that hurts CU's chances (23%, 64 Votes)
  • It helps the Buffs. The Huskies played inspired ball for their interim coach to open their game against ASU, but couldn't prevent the loss. Players will be distracted this week - that helps CU (10%, 30 Votes)

Colorado squanders a 20-7 second quarter lead, giving up 37 unanswered points in a 44-20 loss. Thoughts?
  • The game represents pretty clearly where the program is right now ... good enough to compete for about a half. If CU hadn't settled for field goals in the first half - who knows? (42%, 126 Votes)
  • Karl Dorrell has coached seven seasons, and this is the first without a bowl bid. This season is lost, but we'll see what the (hopefully new) offensive coaches come up with this off-season (34%, 104 Votes)
  • Couldn't be more embarrassed/disgusted. I don't know why any Buff fan would want to continue to support this team. One of the worst teams in the FBS ... again (24%, 73 Votes)

It's time! Your prediction for Colorado at UCLA (7:10 p.m., MT, Pac-12 Networks)
  • I can't see why this is a 17-point spread ... but I also have a hard time seeing the Buffs winning this game. I would bet on the Buffs to cover ... but not to win (49%, 128 Votes)
  • The Colorado defense is 0-for-the-season against experienced quarterbacks. DTR is a senior, and the Bruins have had a bye week to prepare. I'm afraid this is going to be a blowout loss (26%, 69 Votes)
  • I may be looking at this through black-and-gold colored glasses, but the Buffs played their best game of the year last weekend, and can catch a Bruin team looking ahead to the USC game. Buffs win! (25%, 64 Votes)

Which Pac-12 game (other than CU at UCLA) are you most interested in this weekend?
  • Washington State at Oregon (Sat., 8:30 p.m., MT, ESPN). The game which likely decides the Pac-12 North - and it will be over around 2:00 ET. Well done, Pac-12! (55%, 108 Votes)
  • Arizona State at Washington (Sat., 5:00 p.m., MT, FS1). Two disappointing teams ... and the Buffs get Washington at home next weekend. Are the 4-5 Huskies ready to pack it in? (37%, 73 Votes)
  • Utah at Arizona (Sat., noon, MT, Pac-12 Networks). Can the Wildcats make it two wins in a row (or, better stated, can the Wildcats show that they can keep the score close)? (6%, 12 Votes)
  • Stanford at Oregon State (Sat., 3:30 p.m., MT, Pac-12 Networks). Last stand for the 3-6 Cardinal, third chance for the 5-4 Beavers to become bowl eligible (2%, 4 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??? 🙂
