****************************

You can buy tickets online. Bohn said that they've already sold over 1,000. Due to spring break, the ticket office is closed. So if you need to talk to a person to buy your tickets you won't be able to until Sunday. They're opening up the Keg ticket office early at 11:30 AM tomorrow.

I hope to see some of you there. We need to support this team and send another message to our Pac-12 rivals that CU is coming in strong.

Damnit! I couldn't go. Logging onto the audio at 760 AM to pick up the broadcast.

Way to dominate this thread. :thumbsup:

I really hope Lappe coaches the Buffs into MSG. I'm still hesitant on her hire, but she does seem to be doing a good job. Let's go Buffs!

70-87 Final

USC had too much, especially when they have someone going 7/8 from 3 point range. Nice season for the Buffs. They really finished strong to make the NIT quarterfinals.

I look forward to next year and beyond to see what Lappe's able to build here.

...huh...no ****. Thanks - I don't really follow the women's game, but I just assumed they played in MSG too. I guess all of their games are played in college arenas.

Well, congrats to the Buffs for finishing strong. Britney Spears deserves a lot of kudos for her amazing career...too bad KMac wasted her talents by being her coach.
