So

 

[Kace-1]

This game is underway in Tucson.

 

[Kace-1]

CU is in black and UA is in home white for this one.

How come you never do threads for Kansas games, OP?

 

[Kace-1]

15:31 to go in the half and CU has the 11-6 lead.

How come you never do threads for Kansas games, OP?

There are a lot of teams I haven't done one for. Maybe I'll do one for their game against TCU next week unless I do something else.

 

[Kace-1]

11:34 to go in the half and UA has come back to take the 14-13 lead.

 

[Kace-1]

It looks like a sellout crowd at McKale Center.

 

[Kace-1]

7:50 to go in the half and UA increases its lead, 24-15.

 

[Kace-1]

2:49 to go in the half and it's now 35-21 UA who are starting to run away with this one already.

I don't really know how they determine Pac 12 conference schedules but this is the 4th year in a row that Colorado has opened conference play on the road. Two of those years 5 of the first 7 games have been road games.

 

[Kace-1]

Halftime in Tuscon and it's 39-24 UA. So far, the only thing that can stop the 'Cats tonight is the whistle.

Commissioner Scott probably sees it as some kind of consistency.

 

[Kace-1]

Time for the 2nd Half to get underway at McKale.

 

[Kace-1]

44-30 'Cats with 15:46 as UA continues to hold a 2-touchdown lead.

 

[Kace-1]

Both teams continue trading baskets which is bad for CU given their deficit.

 

[Kace-1]

11:52 left and it's 49-34 'Cats.

 

[Kace-1]

Commentary notes in its own way that the Pac-12 is currently on a downward swing with no teams appearing in the Associated Press Top 25 poll.

 

[Kace-1]

UA continues to hold a double digit lead, 54-42 with 7:38 remaining in regulation.

 

[Kace-1]

3:53 left and it's 57-45 UA. CU had cut the lead to 9, but it's back to double digits again.

 

[Kace-1]

Timeout with 2:15 left and it's 50-50 UA as the Buffs finally cut it back down to single digits.

 

[Kace-1]

We're final in Tucson as the Arizona Wildcats are able to hold off a late charge and beat the Colorado Buffaloes 64-56. The 'Cats improve to 10-4, 1-0 in conference while CU is now 9-4, 0-1 in conference.
