Buffs Turn Focus To Thursday Showdown With Ducks
BOULDER — The "noise" got a little louder this week for Tad Boyle's Colorado Buffaloes.
Their challenge will be to see if they can continue to tune out the noise and focus on the task at hand.
The Buffs — who jumped up to No. 16 in the Associated Press poll and No. 15 in the coaches' poll Monday — also happen to be in sole possession of first place in the Pac-12 standings. It means Colorado (19-5 overall, 8-3 Pac-12) finds itself squarely in the spotlight, with Thursday's prime-time, nationally televised (7 p.m., ESPN) showdown at Oregon (18-6, 7-4) generating all the attention that comes with such a game.
