PAC MAN Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I just felt like doing a Don so I created a thread for the heck of it. http://www.cubuffs.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=600&ATCLID=210521593 Buffs sleepwalked in a close win at home against mighty Omaha...so embarrassing. Pull a similar stunt against Air Force and the Falcons might give the Buffs a swift kick in the rear. My solution would be to force each CU player to drop their pants and sit on freshly garnished jalapeno...they won't forget it and it would literally light a fire under them. It's a long season but the Buffs better not forget Omaha even if Peyton Manning isn't muttering that word anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAC MAN Posted November 30, 2015 Author Share Posted November 30, 2015 http://www.buffzone.com/ci_29180045/cu-mens-basketball-buffs-rout-northern-colorado CU routed Northern Colorado by 30 points. The Buffs play another Colorado team which is a D2 team next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the competition hasn't been great but he is making those shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fort Lewis State beat Wyoming in an exhibition before this season so they would be on the high end of D2 for sure. Now, CU plays at CSU this Saturday. Perhaps CU's toughest test to date.

PAC MAN Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 http://www.buffzone.com/ci_29210017/cu-mens-basketball-second-half-surge-sends-buffs Big win for the Buffs in Ft. Collins. Buffs were down by 13 points and won 88-77. The Buffs did the same thing at Auburn and played Iowa State close. Team chemistry is better this season than last season and I think the Buffs will exceed expectations this season in the PAC. BYU comes to Boulder this Saturday. Any Utes want to chime in about that team down south? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAC MAN Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 I'm expecting BYU to be physical with us and CSU was the same way since it's a rivalry game. They beat Weber State which tends to contend for the Big Sky Conference and they play Utah State at home. They certainly will be ready to go this Saturday. Maybe the Buffs players will have to wear cups for this game too. This will be the last meaningful home game in OOC play before conference play begins.

PAC MAN Posted December 13, 2015 Author Share Posted December 13, 2015 Keep your guard up....and don't bite anyone. Buffs did let their guard down as allowing a 25 point lead in the 2H to come down to 6 but the Buffs bit back and won 92-83. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But some things to watch out for. The Buffs will play two games this week at home as part of a Las Vegas tourney then play against Penn State. Should the Buffs beat the Nittany Lions, the Buffs might play SMU who is #18 and coached by Boyle's coach at KU. Can Boyle beat Brown in Vegas if that happens? Judging on how well CU MBB is playing right now, I think that matchup is very likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penn State tonight then either Kent State or SMU. After that, conference play starts. I'll resume doing weekly games threads once conference play kicks off.

I believe if this was last season's team, the result would have easily been a loss. Now bring on #18 SMU and Boyle's former college coach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMU went on a 14-1 run late in the game and that was the difference in this case. Next game is at Cal on NYD for conference play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAC MAN Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 http://www.cubuffs.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=600&ATCLID=210683389 Good article on the preseason questions that the Buffs have answered. Have they met my expectations? The answer would be a resounding YES! I'm not surprised that the Buffs have done as well as they have done this season.

PAC MAN Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 http://www.cubuffs.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=600&ATCLID=210753837 CU bids farewell to four seniors tomorrow. Time does go by fast and Josh Scott and Xavier Talton were part of a special class that included Xavier Johnson and Wesley Gordon. Johnson hasn't decided on next season but Gordon will be back. Looking back, the recruiting class that those players were part of was a good class. If Johnson returns next season, I think the Buffs should be okay but I'm not really looking forward to when that recruiting class is fully done with their time in Boulder unless other people from outside that class steps up. As long as Tad Boyle is still in Boulder, the Buffs will be a threat for 20+ wins a season given that Boyle has five of CU's nine 20 win seasons in MBB history.

There could be a good number of juniors and RS sophs next season as well so I really like the class make up. You could say CU is good to go for the next several seasons but it looks like Boyle and company will have to kill it in recruiting sooner than later. CU will be going to a tourney at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn that will include Norte Dame, Texas, and Northwestern. OOC Home games: CSU and more to be announced. OOC Road games: BYU, Air Force, and Portland. Pac-12 non-round robin games: LA schools visit Boulder and CU visits the desert. Bay Area, Oregon, Washington, and Utah will be round robin games.
