CBS Sports: Pac-12 in discussion for a "conference-only" schedule this fall. Thoughts?
- Another day; another theory. As Stanford coach David Shaw put it: "I think where we are is the definition of a fluid situation". Stay tuned ... (75%, 143 Votes)
- It seems like a logical evolution of the discussion. It will buy the conference more time while still preserving a reasonable facsimile of a full season (16%, 30 Votes)
- Delaying the season for three games doesn't really solve any of the issues at hand (Plus, I'm not thrilled with CU having to win five Pac-12 games to get to bowl-eligibility ... which will be tough) (9%, 17 Votes)

It's been 18 years since CU last won a conference championship. How long will it be before CU's next title?
- The Buffs played for a title just three season ago. I can see the Buffs playing for, and winning, a Pac-12 title in the next 3-5 seasons (44%, 88 Votes)
- With the way CU has been snake-bitten with coaching changes and the inability to recruit a star quarterback, it may be another decade or so before the Buffs are crowned champions once again (40%, 79 Votes)
- This historic slide (never more than seven straight losing seasons in school history before the past 15 years of suffering) shows no signs of being altered. CU finishing last is the new normal (16%, 32 Votes)

Vegas odds: Colorado rated well below the rest of the conference in odds of winning the Pac-12 title. Thoughts?
- We'll have to see how this season plays out. Depending on how much practice teams can get in, and how many games are played, CU may have a terrible season ... or could surprise (42%, 81 Votes)
- About right, I'm afraid. With a new coaching staff, and no experience at quarterback, it's not hard to see the Buffs back-sliding from 5-7. No chance at a Pac-12 title (30%, 58 Votes)
- Absurd, if only due to the rankings of other schools. Arizona finished 4-8, and is in disarray, but is six times more likely to win the Pac-12? Give me a break (28%, 54 Votes)

Which quote from Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott do you find the most encouraging?
- "I think across the country, there is a commitment to do everything possible to start the season on time and play a full season. That is our intention at the moment” (38%, 39 Votes)
- “Looking forward, those of us that are big football conferences, have a shared interest and are locked at the hip in terms of playing a full football season that starts on time" (33%, 34 Votes)
- "The sheer force, effort and ingenuity that’s going into solving some of these issues and making things safe for our students on campus coming back is enormous. I’ve got a real reason for optimism" (29%, 30 Votes)

University of Oregon: "We're opening this fall" / Oregon governor: "No large gatherings before October" - Who is going to win out?
- Still way too early to tell. A great deal can happen between now and September. Check back in a month or so - by mid-June there should be some definitive answers about fall sports (68%, 139 Votes)
- Try as schools might, the governor and the health officials are going to win out. No football in the state of Oregon in September (16%, 33 Votes)
- The Oregon Ducks have a home game scheduled against Ohio State on September 12th. If you think that Nike U is going to pass up an opportunity for a big win at home ... guess again (16%, 33 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??? 🙂
