Last year an inexperienced Colorado team managed big wins over ranked teams, including an Arizona State team that was ranked 4th at the time. Many expected them to take a big step forward this year. That hasn’t happened yet.
Colorado has struggled since the start of their Pac-12 schedule, going 2-5. Colorado doesn’t seem to be able to put a complete game together, often starting strong before collapsing late. This was the story of their loss against Stanford and their near loss against Cal.
The team’s leading scoring is Sophomore Point Guard McKinley Wright IV. After an exciting, breakout freshman year, Wright hasn’t seemed to progressed.
