It’s hard to hate on the Buffs. As fellow weed-happy hippies, they’re almost kindred spirits. And somewhat ironically, the current Colorado team is an almost eerie copy of our own. They’re a plodding group with an inconsistent offense that relies on positional defense as their calling card. Coach Boyle generally does a good job of building a competitive squad. Since his arrival, the Buffaloes have gone to the post-season six out of seven years after just one trip in the previous forty-seven.
As with all Tad Boyle teams, they put very little emphasis on steals in favor of moving their feet and beating guys to the spot.
