So lucky. Can't recruit, players don't develop, teams are soft, offense is anemic, refuses to call timeouts, and still doesn't have inbounds plays. Shocking that we ever win a game.

AWALT!If she's hot, wtf did she marry that pansy ass jack fest for? Nevermind, I think I know the answer to that.
I just saw a guy with a Buffs hoodie on at the store. I said Go Buffs! Win the conference tonight! He was like Yeah! Then he told me he was on the last Buffs team that won the conference. Jeremy Adams. I only vaguely remember his name.

The adidas money?
He was pretty much our entire bench at one point. Really skilled player who had some health issues that severely limited him.
I remember the name, not his game. Hell, that doesn't even matter.
That's what he told me. He said he was diabetic. Friendly dude.
EDIT: To say he was too humble, based on what I've learned in this thread.

You can see him along with Austin, Dre, Spencer, Ben and others in the 12 minute or so pregame show from yesterday. He is working on finishing up his PHD. I think he only played at CU for 2 years.
I remember him. Didn't he end up transferring?
You must attack the ball!
That's a good guess, I doubt he's hung like a donkey.
He's in the suit and his carwheel is epic 
. But man this team had a lot of talent on it. Wow!

Boy did Wright hit a bunch of critically important treys. More than in any other game I can remember. Of course Horne did as well, but that's something I expected.
Buffs struggled with USC's zone. It took Kin out of attack mode and made the Buffs a bit passive. There were times when it looked like the stagnation would be the end of them. Still, this team never gives up.

I suspect if OSU wins tonight, UCLA doesn't make the dance.
With the DST transition, the finish will be close to the same time.
It's pretty disappointing. I probably won't be up at 2:00 a.m. to move the clocks forward.

LAS VEGAS — Conference tournament title game appearances have been a rarity for the Colorado Buffaloes.
Conference tourney titles have been even more rare.
But Tad Boyle's Buffs (22-7) will add one more appearance to the list Saturday at T-Mobile Arena — and hopefully one more title as well — in the 8:30 p.m. (MT) Pac-12 championship game against Oregon State (16-12).
Saturday's game will be only the third time the CU men have ever played in a conference tourney title game, with Boyle's teams accounting for two of them.
The first came in 1990, when Tom Miller's CU squad fell to Oklahoma, 92-80, in the Big Eight championship game. The second came nine years ago, when Boyle's team ran off four straight wins to capture the first-ever Pac-12 tourney title, capped by a 53-51 win over Arizona.
...
Colorado swept the season series with Oregon State, rolling to a 78-49 win in Boulder in early February, then grinding out a 61-57 victory in Corvallis two weeks later.
But the first win came at the tail end of a stretch that saw the Beavers play three games in six days. OSU was a much-improved team in the second contest — and since then, the Beavers have rattled off five victories in six games.
"Wayne Tinkle's done an unbelievable job with that team from November, December, to where they are now," Boyle said after the Buffaloes' narrow 72-70 win over USC on Friday. "He deserves a lot of credit and their players have gotten better and their team's gotten better. We have our hands full. They're playing good basketball right now."
The Beavers are led by guard Ethan Thompson, who is averaging 15.6 points per game, while fellow guard Jarod Lucas is scoring at a 12.9 clip. Thompson can score from anywhere on the court; Lucas is a dangerous 3-point shooter, averaging 2.3 treys per game — third best in the Pac-12.
The Beavers are also talented up front, led by athletic forward Warith Alatishe, who is averaging 9.9 points and 8.6 rebounds. Alatishe was a key in the 75--64 win over Oregon, collecting 12 points and 12 rebounds.
"They have got multiple guys that are playing well," Boyle said. "They're playing for their NCAA tournament lives and a championship. We're playing for a championship. So we better be ready to strap it up."
Some trends from the first two games this season:
— The Buffs held Oregon State to a combined 34.5 percent shooting in the two games (39-for-113). Thompson averaged 14 points in the two games, but shot just 9-for-25. CU limited Lucas to just nine total points in the two contests.
— CU shot 56 percent from the floor in the first game and 44 percent in the rematch. Jeriah Horne led Colorado with 16 points in the first win; McKinley Wright IV had 21 points — 15 in the second half — in the second game.
— Colorado was just 4-for-14 from 3-point range in the second game, but hit 19 of 22 free throws.
BROADCAST: The game will be televised by ESPN with Dave Pasch and Bill Walton. KOA 850 AM and 94.1 FM will carry the radio broadcast with Mark Johnson and Scott Wilke.

Palm has them in the first four and Lunardi has them last four byes. I think they'll sweat (probably can add them to the list of schools who are pulling hard for Creighton and us tonight), but get in. Don't see them winning a game though.
