CU hires Domata Peko as defensive line coach. Thoughts?
  • I'm just taking this as another positive sign that Coach Prime is building a staff (and a team) for the future, and that he is planning on being in Boulder for the foreseeable future (56%, 96 Votes)
  • This is a great hire. Peko spent 15 years in the NFL, including five with defensive coordinator Robert Livingston in Cincinnati. A strong move at an important position (35%, 61 Votes)
  • I get the Coach Prime method of hiring coaches with NFL playing experience, but he has that in Warren Sapp. Wouldn't it have been better to hire a defensive line coach with more coaching experience? (9%, 15 Votes)

Which of the following quotes from defensive coordinator Robert Livingston do you like the best?
  • “If you have a great pass rusher, let’s let them rush. If you have a great cover player, let’s let them cover. Keep feeding them ... It starts with the people, and it starts with the personnel" (61%, 92 Votes)
  • "We’ve all watched a game where the defense is flying around, and you find yourself almost cringing when somebody cuts back. That’s who we want to be. We want to be the hardest playing team we can" (29%, 44 Votes)
  • “I think the unfortunate part of this profession is you are never finished, so there’s always a, ‘I wish I would have done this or that’ moment. It’s been a great ride” (10%, 16 Votes)

News may be coming shortly on the College Football Playoff expanding to 14 (or even 16) teams. Thoughts?
  • I don't like it. Guaranteeing the SEC and Big Ten four spots each in the playoff turns the title from a playoff to an invitational. The Big 12 and ACC need to resist this move! (57%, 68 Votes)
  • I guess it's going to happen. If the next amendment is to take away the bye for champions (likely putting Big 12 teams on the road every year), there may as well be two guaranteed spots (27%, 32 Votes)
  • Sounds like a good idea. Getting more teams into the Playoff will help CU get in, as will the Big 12 getting two guaranteed spots. It's going to happen ... make it so! (16%, 19 Votes)

Early pick for Week One television schedule: CU v. Georgia on Saturday at 8:15 p.m., MT, on ESPN. Thoughts?
  • We'll see ... There is plenty of time before this becomes reality. I'm betting (hoping) that the Georgia Tech game will be moved to Thursday or Friday night of Week One - and at a decent hour (54%, 75 Votes)
  • Hate it! One of the benefits of having Coach Prime getting CU back on the national stage was avoiding these late night games. Hope this doesn't turn out to be an accurate prediction (36%, 49 Votes)
  • Like it! A 10:15 p.m., ET, kickoff for the Yellow Jackets; yet another nationally televised game ... and with the holiday weekend, time for Buff fans to recover on Sunday (10%, 14 Votes)

If you had to make a guess, what is the main reason why CU and Coach Prime haven't announced a contract extension?
  • It's all about the money, but not for the head coach. Coach Prime understands there has to be plenty of funds for assistants and players, and is holding CU's feet to the fire to stay competitive (59%, 92 Votes)
  • It's all about the money, but it's not about paying coaches. CU should (and probably does) want a significant buyout to try and keep Coach Prime from leaving in the near future (31%, 48 Votes)
  • It's all about the money for the head coach. Coach Prime wants to be one of the highest paid head coaches in the country, and CU doesn't (realistically) have that kind of money (10%, 16 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??? 🙂
