Colorado open season against defending champs LSU Tigers

The Colorado Buffaloes will begin their 2023-24 season with a national television audience, as JR Payne’s team will take on the LSU Tigers at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Nov. 6 (5:30 p.m. MT, TNT or Max).

This is huge deal for Colorado basketball. The Buffs just reached the Sweet Sixteen in the NCAA Tournament and came as close to beating Iowa, the national runners-up who lost to LSU in a controversial finale. Everyone is back, more or less, as Payne brings back incumbent starters Jaylyn Sherrod, Frida Formann, Quay Miller and Aaronette Vonleh.
