BOULDER — The next time the Colorado men's basketball team plays at home, the calendar will have turned to 2019 and the 7-1 Buffaloes will have added six games to their ledger.
It will be an important and telling stretch.
Thus far, the Buffs have played well at home, where they are 6-0 this season, while splitting a pair of road games. But beginning with Tuesday night's contest at New Mexico (7 p.m., ESPN2), the road gets tougher — and the Buffs know if they are going to make a serious run at an NCAA Tournament berth, winning on the road is a requisite piece of the equation.
