UCSB closes the night with a blowout win. :thumbsup:
Wazzu came to play tonight. Up 8 at half against UCLA
I'd prefer SC, but really would should beat either pretty handily -- doesn't mean we will.USC would be a more ideal first round opponent than Wazzu imo.

First game Colorado only by one point in OT. That was with Dimwiddie. The second game was at home, and they won by 5. To every other opponent they've lost to, Wazzu has lost by double digits every single time, with the exception being a home game to Cal.I agree, but both squads have upped their play recently. In the end, if we struggle with either, it's because of ineptitude on our part. Either one should be a 10+ point win if CU plays even average.

Yeah technically it was was with Spencer, but he didn't do much in that game.First game Colorado only by one point in OT. That was with Dimwiddie. The second game was at home, and they won by 5.

Cville is right on the 2nd game with the score not being indicative of the real disparity.
I still would rather face USC, we seem to do better against them. But there's no reason we shouldn't beat either and fairly substantially.
I can't see this game but for those who can, does UCLA care?Wazzu up 17

So are we a better matchup with USC or Wazzu?

Anderson cared. The rest of the team was going through the motions. Bruins have lost the back end of every road trip this season. So there's that question about how they are as a team when they have to be around only each other for 4 or 5 days (question for the Dance). And there's also the "big timing it" attitude of UCLA when they really didn't have much to play for last night.
Anyway, what matters to us is that we got the USC game in the opener. That makes it a Top 150 opponent (won't hurt RPI with a neutral site win) and we match up well. With a win, we get the Cal matchup that I think is more favorable for the Buffs than about any other 2nd round game.
Iowa state student section did a mass flop when smart got introduced.
Jackson State is playing Grambling State today. Just get us a damn win.
CSU falls to Utah State in MWC first round.
