Colorado opens as a 12.0-point underdog at home to Oregon State. Thoughts?
- The Beavers are 11th in the nation in rushing offense. If Nate Landman is back, I can see the Buffs keeping this close. Not predicting a CU victory, but the line is way too high (45%, 116 Votes)
- The Buffs played better last week ... and still lost by three touchdowns. Oregon State still controls its own destiny in the Pac-12 North, and will wear down the Buffs, winning going away (37%, 96 Votes)
- Oregon State has lost two of three, and has given up a minimum of 24 points to every Pac-12 opponent. Buffs will ride their new found offensive momentum to a home victory! (18%, 48 Votes)

No. 7 Oregon 52, Colorado 29. Thoughts?
- While it wasn't a competitive game, there were strides made, especially on offense. We were looking for reason for some hope for November and 2022, and I think we got it (42%, 135 Votes)
- The offense improved, but the defense without Landman was inept. Oregon scored on every drive but one, and rolled to over 550 yards of total offense. CU finds another way to lose big (31%, 98 Votes)
- Nice job, Oregon. Going for a touchdown with less than a minute to go in the game. Pure class from the Ducks as they look for style points. Here's hoping there is a humbling loss in their near future (27%, 88 Votes)

It's time! Your prediction for Colorado at Oregon (Saturday, 1:30 p.m., MT, Fox):
- It's going to over early, and it's going to be ugly. The Buffs were embarrassed by a 1-5 team last week - how will they do against an Oregon team looking for style points? I shudder to think (70%, 162 Votes)
- The Buffs have something to prove, and the Ducks will be looking forward to taking out their aggressions against Washington next week. Oregon wins, but it will be closer than the 26-point spread (19%, 43 Votes)
- Oregon only led Arizona at home by five points in the fourth quarter, and trailed Cal in the fourth. Call me crazy, but with a few turnovers and a few key stops, I think the Buffs can win (11%, 26 Votes)

What to you would constitute a "win" for the Buffs in their game against Oregon?
- Unless the dictionary definition has been changed, a "win" is given to the team with the most points at the end of the game. For CU, a "win" still needs to be an actual win (47%, 123 Votes)
- Pretty much anything which doesn't lead off Sportscenter with a "you won't believe what the Ducks did to the Buffs today". Get out of Eugene without injury, and at least a shred of dignity (29%, 76 Votes)
- It shouldn't be too much to ask for the Buffs to be competitive. Oregon has been far from dominant, and CU has the talent on the roster to compete. I'd like to see them do just that (24%, 62 Votes)

Which of the other Pac-12 games this weekend for you holds the most interest?
- UCLA at Utah ... Do or die for UCLA's division chances; Utah's chance to take firm control of the South division race (68%, 129 Votes)
- Oregon State at Cal ... CU's opponent from last week v. CU's opponent for next week. It will be interesting to see how this plays out (27%, 52 Votes)
- Washington State at Arizona State - Are the Cougars going to mail it in without a coach? Will Arizona State keep its Pac-12 South title dreams alive? (3%, 5 Votes)
- Washington at Stanford ... Tale of two disappointed teams. The coach of the losing team will hear more hot seat rumors come Sunday (2%, 4 Votes)

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!!
‘SkoBuffs!! Drub the Nubs.
Stuart, your polls are so thoughtful and on point. Appreciate you doing this and sharing it with your CUAtTheGame community.
Did Coach Hagan just let the cat out of the bag regarding Colorado’s starting QB?
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??? 🙂
