The Bruins had lost three consecutive conference games in January and appeared on the verge of a total collapse … before rolling up four consecutive victories to move back into Pac-12 title contention.
Just when you think UCLA might be finished, the Bruins (19-9 overall, 10-6 Pac-12) have repeatedly delivered proof-of-life results. They are seeking another breakthrough Sunday against the Buffaloes (15-13, 7-9), who beat the Bruins last month at Pauley Pavilion for their only road victory of the season.
Colorado is far more formidable at home, where it has gone 11-3 while becoming one of only two Pac-12 teams (Washington was the other) to sweep the Arizona schools over a weekend this season.
