We’re going to have a little fun with this episode, one which we are calling the “Pet Peeves Bracket Challenge”. I am joined by Neil Langland, and we are going to run through a Sweet Sixteen of college football annoyances, working our way towards a signature Pet Peeve.

If you are not driving while listening to this episode, I recommend taking a pen and a piece of paper, so you can pick your own winners, and come up with your own Final Four and ultimate champion Pet Peeve.

So ... Which bothers you most as a college football fan: Your team going from the shotgun on fourth-and-inches? ... Or ... Throwing a six-yard completion on third-and-seven? ... Which is more annoying: The useless between quarters coach interviews? ... Or ... Your team fooling no one by trying to draw the opposition offside on a fourth-and-two at the 42-yard line?

If you enjoy this episode, let us know your most frustrating Pet Peeves, and we’ll put them up for review on a future episode.

For now, which of our Sweet Sixteen Pet Peeves will be crowned champion? ...

Welcome to our May Mailbag edition. I am joined for this episode by Brad Geiger, and we go through your questions about college football in general, and your Colorado Buffaloes in particular.

Included in this mailbag episode ...

- An article in The Athletic took Coach Prime and CU to task for dismantling the roster they inherited, quoting unhappy players who left the program. But looking at where the castoffs landed, can an argument be made that Colorado did what was necessary, considering the status of the roster?;

- Even if the roster moves were justified, should Coach Prime and Shedeur Sanders have keep quiet, instead of instigating a firestorm on social media?;

- At every opportunity, Coach Prime indicates that he loves CU and Boulder, and has no intentions of leaving after the 2024 season. Are you convinced Deion Sanders will be CU’s head coach in 2025?;

- What are your feelings about the current state of the roster? Did CU fill the holes in the lineup along the offensive and defensive lines, and at linebacker?;

- If the House case will take some $2.7 billion dollars to settle, will CU be able to one of the programs able to withstand the financial burden of remaining in the top tier of college football?; and

- (A really good question, when you stop to think about it) ... If you had the choice between being a fan of a perennial contender (e.g., Ohio State; Georgia) or a team which is usually average, but occasionally jumps into the national spotlight (e.g., CU in 2016; TCU in 2022), which program would you choose to support?

Welcome to our Spring Game recap. I am joined for this episode by Brad Geiger and Neil Langland, and we are here to discuss all that transpired on a soggy Folsom Field on Saturday.

We will first turn our attention to each unit on the team, and how they fared in the glorified scrimmage, before turning our attention to which units are most in need of bolstering over the next few weeks as the Transfer Portal shifts from the out-go to the in-come. We finish our discussion by taking a look at what Buff fans can expect in the next few weeks and months as Spring, 2024, shifts to issues for the summer of 2024.

So ... Do we know anymore about the backups at quarterback to Shedeur Sanders? ... Is the completely rebuilt offensive line a significant upgrade to the porous 2023 model? ... Or, is there still plenty of work to be done before CU has a Big 12 quality offensive line? ... Will Coach Prime and his coaching staff be able to piece together a solid running back room? ... Or, will this unit be a liability come fall? ... Is the Buff defense ready for Prime Time? ... Or, are there still holes to be filled on the defensive roster between now and August 29th?
