No. 20 Buffs Fall At Arizona
TUCSON, Ariz. — Colorado's hopes for a road trip sweep in the desert came crashing down Saturday, as the Buffaloes dropped a 75-54 decision to Arizona at the McKale Center.
The 20th-ranked Buffs dropped to 14-4 overall and 3-2 in Pac-12 play while Arizona improved to 13-5, 3-2. The loss was CU's eighth in a row at Arizona since joining the Pac-12 in 2011-12.
The Buffs jumped out to a quick 10-5 lead, but Arizona answered with a 24-5 run to take control and Colorado never threatened again. CU trailed 34-23 at intermission and managed to cut the deficit back to nine early in the second half, but UA quickly rebuilt the lead to double digits and extended the margin into the 20s down the stretch.
