Despite amassing a 14-point lead midway through the second half on Saturday night, the University of Colorado men’s basketball dropped their final regular season game in No. 13 Utah, 57-55.

After the Buffs ignited a 16-0 run midway through the second, they let that effort slip away when they failed to score over the next six minutes, allowing Utah to finish a 19-0 run to regain the lead and pull away with the game, which was the regular season finale for both teams.
