Athlon (and The Sporting News) have CU playing in the Sun Bowl against North Carolina on New Year's Eve. Interested in going?
  • Yes! CU has been to two Alamo Bowls in the past 15 years, so I will jump on any chance to see my Buffs in the post-season. New Year's Eve in El Paso? Sounds like fun (45%, 58 Votes)
  • Yes, I would like to travel to watch CU play in a bowl game, but no to El Paso. If the Buffs get a bowl game in Las Vegas or LA, sure, but El Paso? (28%, 36 Votes)
  • No. It wouldn't even matter if the Buffs won the Big 12 and qualified for a New Year's Six game in the first year of the 12-game playoffs ... I'm watching from the comfort of home (27%, 35 Votes)

Help settle our CUATG podcast debate: In what tier of the Big 12 would you put CU's defensive line?
  • Tier Three: The overhaul was necessary, and the level of talent has certainly improved, but this unit still has a great deal to prove before it can be said it's in the top half of the Big 12 (59%, 95 Votes)
  • Tier Two: It's a stretch to say that CU now has one of the top four defensive lines in the Big 12, but I definitely feel that CU has a line which ranks in the top half of the conference (37%, 60 Votes)
  • Tier Four: CU's defensive line remains a liability. Throw in the fact that CU just replaced its defensive line coach, and I'm afraid this unit will cost CU some wins (4%, 7 Votes)

ESPN's list of Top 25 stadiums has no Big 12 schools (but CU is first in the conference among "others receiving votes"). Thoughts?
  • I'm going to take some solace in the fact that Folsom Field received more votes than any other stadium in the Big 12. All that is left now for Folsom to move up is for CU to start winning again (44%, 55 Votes)
  • Kind of shows the bias that ESPN has developed for the "Big Two". Apparently filling the stadium is not a requirement, otherwise USC and UCLA wouldn't have made the list (32%, 40 Votes)
  • The list is more about "iconic" or "historical" stadiums. Apparently, having Ralphie and the Flatirons didn't matter to the writers who cast votes in the poll (24%, 30 Votes)

Coach Prime excited about new defensive coordinator Robert Livingston because Livingston is a "pro". Do you share Coach Prime's enthusiasm?
  • TBD. As is the case with so much about this team, the proof will come when the games begin. I have my concerns, but Coach Prime is staking his future on "pro" coaches instead of "college" coaches (70%, 134 Votes)
  • Yes. Coach Prime says he "likes the relationships and the thought process of a pro", and Coach Prime sees Livingston as a future head coach. It's going to be a fun watching the improvement (24%, 45 Votes)
  • Not really. Can a coach who has been out of the college game for 13 years, and has never served as a coordinator, relate to the college game and college players? We're about to find out (6%, 12 Votes)

ESPN's Paul Finebaum: "Colorado is nothing. They don’t matter. They’re irrelevant in the big picture of college football". Thoughts?
  • The season will be here soon enough, and the CU coaches and players will have their chance to shut these guys up. Until then, 4-8, 1-8 is still 4-8, 1-8. CU needs to win on the field, not just off (71%, 166 Votes)
  • I really hate this guy. I understand he is a shill for the SEC, but can't he make a living by promoting his conference, instead of making it his business to tear down others? (18%, 42 Votes)
  • Anyone pointing out the hypocrisy that "CU is all about the 'clicks' ", but the critics of CU spend all of their time creating clicks by finding new ways to insult Coach Prime and CU? (11%, 25 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??? 🙂
