Which of the following news items over the next few days to you will be the most worthy of your attention?
- Selection Sunday, men's edition (4:00 p.m., MT). Where will the Buffs be seeded (barring some unexplainable bubble bursting)? Where will they be playing, and who will be the opponent? (70%, 151 Votes)
- First day of spring practices (Monday morning, Champions Center). With all due respect to basketball, I'm ready to see my football team back in action! (22%, 48 Votes)
- Selection Sunday, women's edition (6:00 p.m., MT). The women are in, but they are between a four seed (home for two games) and a five seed (on the road, with a potential true road game in Round Two) (8%, 17 Votes)

CU receives a commitment from graduate transfer tight end Sam Hart (two years of eligibility remaing). Thoughts?
- Where the Buffs are now, they need to take some flyers on potential stars. Hart will have plenty to prove, and plenty to play for coming home to Colorado to play. Worth the risk to bring him in (54%, 126 Votes)
- Nice to get a new tight end, but let's be realistic. Hart was with Ohio State for three years, with a grand total of 35 snaps and no catches. Much for Mr. Hart to prove (24%, 56 Votes)
- A former four-star recruit with two dozen Power Five offers out of high school? And in a position of dire need? And a local boy (Aurora)? ove it. Welcome, Mr. Hart! (22%, 53 Votes)

Payout for 14-team playoff amounts agreed to, with the Big 12 receiving the smallest payout. Thoughts?
- Remember this is just the payout for the College Football Playoff. Add in huge difference in regular season media payouts .... and it's clear that the end of any sense of parity is upon us (77%, 120 Votes)
- It's not the difference between the ACC ($13-$14 million per school) and the Big 12 ($12 million), it's the discrepancy between the Big 12 and the SEC/Big Ten ($22 million per school) (15%, 23 Votes)
- Makes sense. The Big 12 has produced the smallest number of playoff teams, so gets the smallest payout. At least there is a clause allowing for bigger payouts with improved performance (8%, 13 Votes)

Jon Wilner picks Colorado to win the Pac-12 tournament. Chances of that happening?
- Medium. Avoiding Arizona until the title game (assuming both teams make it that far) definitely makes this a realistic possibility. I don't want to jinx anything, but I am hopeful (57%, 130 Votes)
- Low. The Buffs have been on a roll of late, but we are still talking about the Buffs. I just hope that CU gets past Utah/ASU, and gets the Buffs off of the bubble and into the "locked" category (37%, 84 Votes)
- High. No team in the Pac-12 is playing as well as the Buffs right now. With a bye and with CU being on the opposite side of the bracket from Arizona ... Yeah, it could happen! (6%, 13 Votes)

ESPN announces it will air four Big 12 Spring games (West Virginia; Baylor; Houston; Texas Tech), but not Colorado. Thoughts?
- I'm just waiting to see what CU has in mind. Coach Prime and CU have hinted at plenty of add-ons, including a concert. Guess we'll have to wait for Fox to announce its coverage of the game (61%, 119 Votes)
- Makes some sense, actually. Coach Prime was a cultural phenomenon last year, but returning to CU's glorified scrimmage for a second year would be overkill. Plenty of time to showcase CU this fall (28%, 54 Votes)
- Hard to understand. ESPN knows what Coach Prime brings to the table in terms of ratings, so to take on lesser Big 12 programs but not CU ... not getting the logic (11%, 22 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??? 🙂
