BOULDER - For the first time since 2003-04, the University of Colorado men’s basketball team will begin the season on the road with back-to-back games, starting off a non-conference slate where the Buffaloes will host eight home games and hit the road four times during the November and December months.
Overall, the 2015-16 schedule will see eight NCAA Tournament opponents from a year ago (Iowa State, BYU, Hampton, SMU, Arizona, Oregon, UCLA, Utah); three NIT opponents (Colorado State, Arizona State, Stanford); and a pair of CIT opponents (Portland, Kent State).
There’s also 11 opponents that won over 20 or more games a year ago (Arizona, Oregon, Stanford, UCLA, Utah, Colorado State, BYU, SMU, Kent State, Iowa State, Fort Lewis College).
