points and three of those under 50. It’s the first time since 2012-13 Colorado has held three opponents under 50, and that was over a 34-game season.

The 41 points given up to Wyoming are the lowest since Utah had 41 in the first round of the 2012 Pac-12 Tournament (CU won 55-41). Colorado State had just 12 first half points, the fewest for a Colorado opponent since Utah scored 11 on Dec. 31, 2011. Colorado won that game 73-33, the first Pac-12 Conference game for both teams.

On other Pac-12 charts, Colorado is second in rebounding margin (+6.9) and rebound defense (32.0 rpg), third in free throw percentage (.742) and fifth in blocked shots (3.9 bpg).

Colorado has forced double-digit turnovers in 11 of 12 games, av-eraging 16.0 per contest, with a season-high 22 against UC Irvine. The Buffaloes had a season high nine blocked shots vs. Loyola Marymount and had eight against Prairie View A&M.

Colorado held Prairie View A&M to 36.8 percent shooting and had a plus-14 advantage on the boards (43-29). The Buffaloes improved to 5-0 this season, and 64-5 under Tad Boyle, when holding a team under 40 percent and having at least a plus-8 advantage in rebounds

All-Pac-12 forward Tyler Bey leads Colorado at 9.8 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 1.5 blocks per game while ranking second in scoring (12.6 ppg) and field goal percentage (.500). He has double-doubles in five games this season and in 16 of his last 28 games overall. His 24 career double-doubles are 12th on Colorado’s all-time list.

Bey had 19 rebounds against Wyoming, the most by a Buffalo since Andre Roberson had 20 against Stanford in Jan. 2013. His 19 boards are the best by a Pac-12 player this season and his 17 rebounds against Sacramento State tie for the second most (three others have 17).

Nationally, Bey is 29th in defensive rebounds (7.1 drpg), 32nd in double-doubles and 33rd in overall rebounding. On the Pac-12 charts he is second in steals, rebounds and defensive boards, fourth in blocked shots, eighth in offensive rebounds (2.7 orpg), 13th in free throw percentage (.769) and 20th in scoring.

Naismith and Wooden Award Candidate McKinley Wright IV leads the team at 12.8 points and 3.8 assists per game. He is third on the team in rebounding at 5.5 boards per game and is averaging 7.2 over the last six contests.

Wright scored a team season-high 29 points and grabbed 10 re-bounds in the win over Dayton. It was his sixth career double-double and second of the points-rebounds variety. Wright tied career-highs for rebounds and field goals made (10) while logging his 12th career 20-point game

On the Pac-12 charts, Wright is fourth in minutes (34.3 mpg), 10th in assists, 13th in assist-to-turnover ratio (1.3), 15th in free throw percentage (.750), 18th in scoring and 20th in rebounding. Junior D’Shawn Schwartz is third on the team in scoring at 11.2 points per game. He leads the Buffaloes from 3-point range at 46.3 percent and 25 on the season.

Schwartz capped off his second career 20-point game with the game winner against Dayton on a 3-pointer at the buzzer in overtime. He tied his career-best with five 3-pointers, which came against the win over Dayton in last season’s NIT. After missing his first five shots against Prairie View A&M, he has made 11 of his last 15 field goals including 8 of 10 from 3-point range

Colorado had 11 steals at Kansas, giving the Buffaloes 23 over the last two games. The 23 steals over a two-game span are the most since Dec. 21 & 29, 2012, when the Buffaloes had 23 steals against Northern Arizona (13) and Hartford (10).

The Buffaloes had only five double-figure steal games the previous three seasons combined and only one game of double-digit steals in each of the past two seasons.

Tyler Bey has 24 steals through 12 games a pace that ranks seventh in the Pac-12 (2.0 spg). For comparison, Bey already has more than one-half the total of last season’s team leader, McKinley Wright IV

who had 39 steals in 35 games.

NONCONFERENCE NUMBERS: Colorado is 95-31 (.754) in non-conference regular season games under head coach Tad Boyle including a 48-14 mark (.774) since the beginning of the 2014-15 sea-son. The Buffaloes were 9-3 during the non-league slate in 2018-19.

Colorado’s best nonconference record under Boyle is 11-2, achieved twice. First in 2013-14 and then again in 2015-16. Both seasons ended with NCAA Tournament berths. Boyle also had an 11-win nonconference schedule in 2010-11, his first year at Colorado, as the Buffaloes were 11-4 before beginning their final season in the Big 12 Conference.

Colorado is 73-5 in nonconference home games under Boyle, a record which includes a perfect 6-0 mark in postseason action.

RIGHT AT HOME: Colorado has won 20 of its last 23, 32 of 38, 53 of 63 and 63 of 74 in the friendly confines of the CU Events Center. In the Tad Boyle era, Colorado is a sparkling 133-25 at the CU Events Center (.842). The Buffaloes are 446-176 (.717) all-time at the CEC. The Buffs have won at least 10 games at home each of the last 10 seasons.

RANKED BUFFS: Colorado fell out of the Associated Press Top 25 on Dec. 16 after a five-week run that saw the Buffaloes climb as high as No. 20 on Dec. 2. Colorado was ranked in four-straight USA Today/Coaches Polls, which debuted a week later than the AP. The five-week run was Colorado’s longest since a six week stint from December 2013 to January 2014.

The Buffaloes are still among those receiving votes in both polls.

Colorado has made 44 all-time appearances in the AP Poll. The initial ranking on Nov. 11 (at No. 25) was the earliest for the Buffaloes by calendar date and the earliest by poll number since being listed at No. 10 in the 1969-70 Preseason Poll, back when the season didn’t begin until early December.

Colorado was No. 27 in the NCAA Evaluation Tool (NET) ratings, used by the organization to evaluate teams for the Division I cham-pionship through games of Dec. 27.

AGAINST RANKED TEAMS: Colorado’s 18 wins over ranked oppo-nents in Boyle’s 10 seasons is by far the best streak in team history. In fact Boyle coached teams, with a record of 18-32, have accounted for 29 percent of wins over ranked opponents (62) since 1949-50.

WRIGHT MOVING UP IN CAREER ASSISTS: McKinley Wright IV is already eighth on Colorado’s all-time assists list. He’s on pace to reach 500 assists this season, a number reached only by Jay Humphries, CU’s all-time leader who dished out 562 from 1980-84.

Wright has four double-figure assists games each resulting in points-assists double-doubles. His three points-assists double-dou-bles in 2017-18 tied the school single-season record previously set by Jay Humphries (1982-83 and ‘83-84) and Toney Ellis (1976-77). Humphries holds the career mark in that category with six.

Wright’s four games with 10-plus assists are the fifth most in team history. Humphries holds the record with seven from 1980-84.

RETURNING PRODUCTION: Colorado boasts one of the top ros-ters, in terms of returning production, in the nation.

Colorado returns all five starters, and all eight players that account-ed for every start in 2018-19. Additionally, the Buffaloes returning roster accounts for every minute played over the final 19 games of last season.

Percentage of Returning Production:Scoring – 94.9 percentRebounds – 96.2 percentAssists – 96.0 percentSteals – 94.5 percentMinutes – 94.1 percent

Only Mount Saint Mary’s and Harvard sport more returning produc-tion in scoring, rebounds, assists and minutes. Colorado is fourth in returning steals, behind those two schools along with South Florida.

FOR OPENERS: The Buffaloes improved to 93-24 all-time in home openers and have won their last 12, making Boyle a perfect 10-0 in home openers. The Buffaloes have won 17 of their last 18.

With the win over Arizona State, Colorado improved to 82-35 (.701) in all-time season openers. The Buffaloes are 8-2 under Boyle and 35-5 in overall season openers since the 1980-81 season.

The Buffaloes began with a neutral site game for the first time in four years. It was Colorado’s first win in an opener at a neutral site since defeating Kansas in Kansas City on Jan. 3, 1932, but it’s a small sample size – it’s only the fourth neutral site opener since that ’32 contest.

BUFFS PICKED SECOND: Colorado was picked to finish second in the 2019-20 Pac-12 Conference men’s basketball race according the league’s Preseason Media Poll.

Colorado tallied 288 points which included nine first-place votes. The Buffaloes nearly claimed the top spot, just being edged out by three points to preseason favorite Oregon, which had 291 points and nine first-place votes.

Colorado’s preseason conference poll selection is its best in either the Pac-12 or Big 12 eras. The three-point separation between the Buffaloes and Ducks is the fourth-closest preseason poll vote in league history (1988-89 – tie, 1994-95 – 2 pts, 2012-13 – 1 pt).

Five teams received first place votes, tying for the most in the Pac-12 annals. Defending regular season champion Washington had six and was picked to place third with 273 points. Arizona had a pair of first-place votes and was picked fourth with 263 points. USC picked up the final first-place vote and was selected fifth at 198.

Arizona State, who opens against the Buffaloes in the Pac-12 Chi-na game on Nov. 8, was sixth with 187 points. Oregon State was seventh (161), followed by UCLA (148), Utah (131), Stanford (84), Washington State (47) and California (35).

PRESEASON ALL-PAC-12: Juniors Tyler Bey and McKinley Wright IV were named to the Preseason All-Pac-12 First Team by media members who cover the conference.

Bey and Wright were among 10 selected to the Preseason All-Pac-12 First Team, mirroring the number that appear on the final regular season squad. Bey led the Pac-12 with 17 double-doubles in 2018-19, averaging 13.6 points and 9.9 rebounds per game. Wright, who also earned honorable mention to the Pac-12’s All-Defensive Team, averaged 13.0 points, 4.8 assists and 1.1 steals as a sophomore.

Both Bey and Wright were 2018-19 All-Pac-12 First Team members as sophomores. Colorado is the first conference team to return two First Team All-Pac-12 performers since California had Patrick Christopher and Jerome Randle in 2009-10.

WRIGHT’S PRESEASON HONORS: Junior guard McKinley Wright IV has was named to several prestigious Watch Lists among other honors during the preseason.

On Dec. 5, he was named to the Oscar Robertson Trophy Watch List, awarded by the U.S. Basketball Writers Association to the National Player of the Year.

Wright is among 50 players named to the initial Naismith Watch List. He is just the fourth Buff to be named to this list, joining David Harrison (2003-04 Candidate), Alec Burks (Preseason Top 50 and Top 30 Watch List), and Andre Roberson (2012-13 Preseason Top 50 Watch List).

BUFFS SIGN LOCAL DUO: Dominique Clifford and Luke O’Brien are the next in a long-line of Colorado prep stars stay-ing home. The two all-state guards, signed their National Letters of Intent to attend Colorado and play basketball for the Buffaloes beginning in 2020-21, on Nov. 13, the first day of the NCAA early signing period.

O’Brien is from Littleton, playing in Colorado’s big school 5A class at Columbine. Clifford is from Colorado Springs, becoming its own basketball pipeline to Boulder, playing at the 3A level for The Vanguard School. The two have already established a relationship as teammates with the Colorado Miners club program.

A First Team All-State selection in 2018-19, Clifford averaged 18.9 points and 11.3 rebounds as a junior, leading his team to the Colorado Class 3A state championship game.

O’Brien was the JeffCo League’s leading scorer at 21.6 points per game as a junior, helping the Rebels to an undefeated confer-ence season. A Class 5A First Team All-State selection as a junior, O’Brien averaged eight rebounds, three assists and nearly two blocks per game, as the Rebels advanced to the second round of the state tournament.

COLORADO, ASU TO MEET IN 2019 PAC-12 CHINA GAME: The Buffaloes and Sun Devils meet in the fifth edition of the Pac-12 China Game presented by Alibaba Group. Longtime Pac-12 partner Fed-eration of University Sports of China (FUSC), which operates under China’s Ministry of Education, will serve as the co-host for the game.

This will be the first time the Pac-12 China game has featured two conference teams. The previous editions have had one Pac-12 team and one from another NCAA Division I conference. The Pac-12 China Game is the flagship event of Pac-12 Global, designed to grow the global popularity of Pac-12 athletic programs and universities, fostering cultural exchange through sport, and creating unique educational experiences for Pac-12 student-athletes. This will be the first intercollegiate regular season event for a Col-orado Athletics program in China, or the Eastern Hemisphere for that matter. The Buffaloes have played in a handful of regular sea-son events outside the continental United States. Both basketball programs have played in Puerto Rico; the men in 1998-99 and the women in 2005-06. Colorado’s men’s and women’s golf teams have both competed Mexico and Puerto Rico, and the women played in a tournament in the Dominican Republic in March 2019. Many Colorado student-athletes have taken advantage of out-of-sea-son foreign tours or World University Games competitions over the last couple of decades. The Buffaloes’ volleyball team took a 10-day tour of China this past June which included three exhibition games.

Nine Buffaloes on the current men’s basketball roster were part of the team’s preseason foreign tour to Italy in August 2017.

LEAGUE FOE IN A NONCONFERENCE GAME: The matchup between Colorado and Arizona State in Shanghai did not count as a conference contest. The teams are slated to meet only once during the Pac-12 regular season - on Jan. 16 in Tempe - as part of the league’s annual 18-game rotation model.

Colorado has played league opponents in nonconference regular season games before, in fact, it was once an annual tradition. The Buffaloes were involved in the Big 7/8 Conference Christmas tourna-ments for more than 30 years between 1947-78. Colorado would join its Big 7/8 counterparts, and sometimes another outside team, for a three-game tournament in Kansas City each year in late December, prior to the start of the league season.

EXHIBITIONS: Colorado defeated Pomona-Pitzer 87-56 at the CU Events Center on Oct. 26. Biig men Evan Battey and Dallas Wal-ton combined for 22 points on 9-for-11 shooting, with Battey also collecting six rebounds. It was the first game for Walton in more than a year, as he sat out all of last season with a torn ACL.

D’Shawn Schwartz led Colorado with 15 points on 7-for-10 shooting, Tyler Bey grabbed six rebounds and McKinley Wright IV dished out six assists.

In the second exhibition Colorado cruised to a 109-42 win over Ts-inghua University on Nov. 6 at the Suzhou Sports Center in China. Bey, Walton and Maddox Daniels each had 12 points. Eli Parquet scored 11 off the bench while Battey pitched in 10.

It was the the first time since 2007-08, that the Buffaloes played two preseason exhibition games. That year, was also the last time Colo-rado had utilized exhibition games prior to this recent three-year run.

Colorado has played exhibition games against various collegiate, foreign and traveling teams throughout the years, compiling a 49-6 all-time mark in those contests. The first event ever held at the CU Events Center was on Nov. 8, 1979, where a crowd of 9,679, turned out to see the Russian Nationals defeat the Buffs, 88-73.

SHANGHAI — Colorado built a big lead early, then fought off an Arizona State comeback in the second half Saturday (Friday night in Colorado) and the Buffaloes collected an 81-71 win in the season opener for both teams in the Pac-12 China Game. Tad Boyle’s Buffs led by 13 at halftime and built the margin to 17 early in the second half before ASU put together a 30-13 run to tie the game at 59-59 midway through the half. The Buffs, though, regrouped and regained the lead as CU veterans McKin-ley Wright IV and Tyler Bey took over down the stretch. CU put together an 8-3 run to take a five-point lead, 67-62, with just under eight minutes to play, with Wright scoring six of the eight. ASU never came closer than four again. Bey finished with 15 points and 12 rebounds for his 20th career double-dou-ble, Wright had 17 points, seven rebounds and five assists, and Evan Battey had 11 points and nine rebounds. D’Shawn Schwartz scored 15 points, 13 in the first half, and Maddox Daniels chipped in eight points in his CU debut. Colorado finished with a 48-36 edge on the boards. Remy Martin led ASU with 23 points. HOW IT HAPPENED: Colorado threatened to blow the game open early in the second half when the Buffs scored the first four points after intermission to take a 46-29 lead. But CU went cold from the floor and ASU took advantage of five Colorado turnovers to fight back and tie the game at 59-59. The Buffs, though, didn’t panic. Wright gave the Buffs the lead with a drive to the bucket, then scored again after an ASU turnover. The Sun Devils pulled back to within one on a Martin 3-pointer, but Battey then grabbed an offensive rebound and scored before Wright drained a jumper from the top of the key for a 67-62 lead with just under eight minutes to play. Colorado then kept the Sun Devils at bay, hitting eight of nine field goal tries in one key stretch. Two Bey free throws with 4:24 left pushed CU’s lead to eight, 74-66, and Bey then delivered a thunderous dunk off a feed from Wright with under four minutes to play to keep the cushion at seven. Battey then hit two free throws with 1:47 remaining to give Colorado a 10-point cushion and salt the game away. Bey and Battey were both hampered with two fouls in the first half and played just a combined 15 minutes. But Bey had 11 points and eight rebounds in the sec-ond half while Battey recorded eight points and seven rebounds after intermission. After a back-and-forth first few minutes, the Buffs slowly took control in the first half. Colorado put together a 10-0 run to erase a two-point Sun Devils edge and take a 23-15 lead with 10:54 to go. CU then slowly pushed the lead to as much as 14 before the end of the half. Lucas Siewert started the run with a 3-pointer before Wright closed it with a floater in the lane. The Buffs then built the lead to 11 on a Wright 3-point play with 4:44 remaining, then pushed the margin to 14 with just more than a minute to play. Schwartz hit seven straight points for the Buffs in the stretch, closing the surge with a 3-pointer to put Colorado up 40-26. The Buffs took a 42-29 lead into halftime. Schwartz led the Buffs with 13 in the first half, Wright added nine points and five rebounds and Siewert had five points and six rebounds. ASU then rallied to tie the game at 59-59, but Colorado regained control, with Wright, Bey and Battey taking over. Colorado rebuilt its lead to as much as 10 down the stretch.

BOULDER — When their shots weren’t falling, Tad Boyle’s 25 No. Colorado Buffaloes had to lean on their defense Saturday night. That defense finally led to an 18-0 second-half offensive run, which the Buffs used to break open a tight game and claim a 71-53 win over San Diego at the CU Events Center. Colorado improved to 2-0 with the win while the Toreros fell to 2-3. Colorado’s Tyler Bey recorded his second straight double-double and 11th in his last 16 games (21st career) with 14 points and 10 rebounds. Lucas Siew-ert came off the bench to score 11 points and add five rebounds, and D’Shawn Schwartz had 15 points — 13 in the second half — and three rebounds. McKinley Wright added 11 point, six boards and five assists for the Buffs. Joe Calcaterra and Noel Coleman each had 10 points for San Diego. With 10:47 left in the game, Colorado led by just four, 46-42. But Siewert started CU’s 18-0 run with a 3-pointer, then added another two minutes later as the Buffs blew the game open. Defensively, Colorado came up with 10 straight stops to fuel the run. “It was a workmanlike effort, if you will,” Boyle said. “Maybe in some respects an ugly win — but when you win by 18 at home and you have a little sense of disappointment, or we didn’t play as well as we’re capable of playing, I think that’s a sign of progress to some degree.” HOW IT HAPPENED: The Buffs struggled early, especially on the offensive end. CU shot just 11-for-32 in the first half and led by only three, 30-27, at inter-mission. Colorado also finished the night with 15 turnovers and hit just 14 of 21 free throw attempts. The Buffs finally found some offensive consistency early in the second half when Schwartz scored 11 points in the first seven minutes, including a 3-pointer at the 13:04 mark that pushed CU’s lead to nine, 46-37. But the Toreros fought back one more time, closing the gap to four, 46-42, on a Calcaterra 3-pointer with 10:47 to play. That’s when CU’s defense finally kicked in for an extended stretch and the offense followed suit. Colorado produced 10 straight stops on the defensive end, including eight missed shots by the Toreros, and the Buffs turned those stops into their 18-0 run and a 64-42 lead with 5:24 remaining. “We live by defense, period,” Bey said. “We didn’t have it in the first half and we picked it up in the second.” Siewert started the run with a 3-pointer, which was followed by a Bey basket and a big Bey block on the defensive end that set up another Siewert trey. Bey added two free throws, Evan Battey drained a long 3-pointer, Schwartz drove the lane for a bucket and Shane Gatling wrapped up the run with a pair of free throws. James Jean-Marie finally ended the CU run with a basket at the 4:30 mark, but by then, Colorado’s lead was still 20 points and the game was over for all intents and purposes. Siewert was again outstanding in his role off the bench, shooting 4-for-7 from the field, including 3-for-5 from long distance, to collect his 11 points along with five rebounds. The first half featured seven lead changes, with both teams putting together 7-0 runs over the last 10 minutes. The Buffs erased a 22-18 deficit with seven straight points, sparked by five points from Siewert. San Diego tied the game at 27-27 with just over a minute to go before a Maddox Daniels 3-pointer with 40 seconds on the clock sent CU into the locker room at intermission with a three-point edge.

BOULDER — Defense is becoming a cornerstone for Tad Boyle’s Colorado Buffaloes. The No. 23 Buffs forced 22 turnovers and McKinley Wright IV and Tyler Bey each scored 16 points Monday night to lead Colorado to a 69-53 win over UC Irvine at the CU Events Center. CU improved to 3-0 while the Anteaters dropped to 3-2. The Buff broke open a tight game in the first half with a 10-0 run to go up by 13, and still led by 10 at the half, 40-30. UCI managed to close the gap to six at two different junctures in the second half, but the Buffs had an answer each time. Bey had seven rebounds and six steals to go with his 16 points while Wright had five assists and no turnovers along with his 16 points. D’Shawn Schwartz had eight points and five rebounds for the Buffs. Collin Welp led UCI with 12 points. Colorado finished with just seven turnovers while reaping 21 points off UCI’s 22 turnovers. In a rarity for the Boyle era at CU, the Buffs won despite being outrebounded, 41-32. The Anteaters entered the game shooting 49 percent from the floor but the Buffs held them to 39.6 percent for the night (21-for-53). “That was a good win against a quality, quality basketball team,” Boyle said. “We’ve got a lot of respect for UC Irvine, their coaching staff, their players. Our guys answered the bell and answered the challenge that I laid at their feet.” HOW IT HAPPENED: The Buffs put together their best overall performance of the young season, making up for an off night shooting — 24-for-61 — with out-standing defense. Their 10-0 run, which turned a 24-23 lead into a 34-23 cushion late in the first half, came on the heels of three Anteater turnovers. Schwartz started the run with a bucket off the glass, then delivered a 3-pointer following a Dallas Walton steal. Bey then collected a thunderous dunk after a Daylen Kountz steal and Wright assist, and Kountz completed the run with a 3-pointer after another UCI turnover. “They were dialed in defensively and they did it for 40 minutes,” Boyle said. “We held one of the most efficient offensive teams in the country to 39 percent and we held them to 53 points. That makes your heart pretty warm as a coach.” Even though Colorado led by 10 at the half, the Anteaters didn’t go away quietly. UCI cut the margin to six at two different junctures in the second half, but each time the Buffaloes had an answer. Colorado responded to the first UCI comeback with a 7-0 run, with Schwartz hitting a 3-pointer and Wright draining a one-hand floater from the lane to bump Colorado’s margin to 48-35 at the 14:05 mark. The Anteaters cut it back to six one more time with a 7-0 surge that reduced CU’s lead to 51-45 with 9:14 to play, but the Buffs didn’t flinch. Wright found Bey for an alley-oop dunk, then added two more one-handers to give CU a 60-49 lead with just under five minutes to play. Less than two minutes later, Bey pushed the lead to 13 with a steal and dunk followed by a pair of free throws for a 64-51 lead to put the game away. “A lot of credit goes to Colorado,” UCI coach Russell Turner said of his team’s turnovers. “They have a commitment on the defensive end. That’s a big part of their success. They were able to impose their will on us and it showed in the turnover column.” CU built the lead to as much as 16 over the final minutes. “Coach has really been stressing in practice how good this team was,” Wright said. “We just had to really dial into the scouting report and I think every guy on our roster took it personally.”

LAS VEGAS — Colorado’s Tyler Bey recorded his third double-double of the season and the Buffaloes survived a difficult first half Sunday to take a 56-41win over Wyoming in the opening round of the MGM Main Event at T-Mobile Arena. Now 4-0, Tad Boyle’s No. 23 Buffs will face Clemson in the championship game Tuesday at 9:30 p.m. Wyoming dropped to 3-4. Bey finished with a career-high 19 rebounds and 11 points for his 22nd ca-reer double-double, and came within shouting distance of a triple-double, as he finished with six assists. Evan Battey added 13 rebounds and nine points while D’Shawn Schwartz finished as CU’s leading scorer with 12 points. The Buffs overcame a horrendous shooting first half that saw them hit just six of their 26 field goal tries, including 1-for-9 from 3-point range, to enter the locker room tied at 15-15 at intermission. CU also finished just 9-for-20 from the free throw line for the game. But Schwartz sparked CU with seven points in a 13-0 Colorado run to open the second half and the Cowboys never came closer than four again. The Buffs finished with a commanding 41-25 edge on the boards, including 13 offensive boards they converted into 11 second-chance points. Colorado also held Wyoming to just 31.9 percent shooting for the game (15-for-47) and forced 19 Wyoming turnovers, which CU converted into 11 points. CU improved its shooting in the second half, hitting 15 of its 30 attempts to finish 21-for-56. “There’s going to be some nights when the ball’s not going in,” Boyle said. “That’s why defense and rebounding travels. You can always be good and solid on that end of the floor and you have to do that to stay in games.” HOW IT HAPPENED: After playing just six minutes because of two quick fouls in the first half, Schwartz made up for lost time in a hurry in the opening minutes of the second. The CU junior started the period with a blocked shot on the defensive end, followed by a jumper to give the Buffs a lead they would never relinquish. He then drew an offensive foul, sank two free throws on the ensuing possession, assisted on a Bey basket and finished his run with a 3-pointer. Daylen Kountz and McKin-ley Wright IV then wrapped up the 13-0 surge with baskets and Colorado had a 28-15 lead four minutes into the half. The Cowboys made a run at the Buffs after CU’s quick start, putting together a 10-2 burst that helped cut CU’s lead back to four, 36-32. But the Buffs never let the Cowboys come any closer, slowly rebuilding the margin back to double digits. Bey hit a pair of free throws to bump the margin back to eight with 7:30 to play before Wright drained a 3-pointer to push the lead to 11, 49-36, with 6:26 to go. Battey followed Wright’s trey with a bucket inside and a free throw to extend the margin to 14 and Wyoming never cut the lead into single digits again. Battey’s 13 rebounds were one away from his career high while Bey had a career-high six assists along with his career best 19 rebounds. Last week, he also had a career high in steals (six) in a win over UC Irvine. The Buffs endured a brutal first half, finishing with more turnovers (eight) than baskets (six) as they entered the locker room tied at 15-15. But while they shot just 6-for-26 in the first half, the Cowboys weren’t much better, hitting six of their 23 attempts. Colorado was 1-for-9 from 3-point range, but the one came from Shane Gatling just before the end of the half to tie the game. Meanwhile, their defense and rebounding kept them in the game. “We could have been down 30-15 at halftime if we didn’t guard,” Boyle said. “That’s a sign of maturity. The frustrations — we didn’t fix them in the first 20 minutes — but they didn’t affect us on the other end of the court. That’s a sign of progress.”

LAS VEGAS — McKinley Wright had a steal and two free throws in the final 10 seconds Tuesday night to lead Colorado to a 71-67 win over Clemson in the MGM Main Event championship game at T-Mobile Arena. The No. 21 Buffs (5-0) rallied from a 12-point deficit in the second half and led by six with 2:36 to play. But the Tigers closed the gap to two, 69-67, with 1:45 to go. After the two teams traded misses, Wright finally came up with his steal with 10 seconds on the clock and was fouled with six remaining. He calmly hit both free throws for his ninth and 10th points of the night to seal the win. Tyler Bey, named the tournament’s MVP, had his fourth double-double of the season for the Buffs (23rd career), finishing with 18 points and 11 rebounds. D’Shawn Schwartz had 12 points and five rebounds, Evan Battey had 11 points and three rebounds and Wright finished with 10 points and six boards. Aamir Simms led Clemson (5-2) with 24 points. The Buffs shot just 20-for-51 from the floor (39.2 percent), including only 7-for-22 from 3-point range. But they also hit 24 consecutive free throws after missing their first one of the night. Colorado had entered the game hitting just 60 percent of its free throws. HOW IT HAPPENED: The Buffs trailed by three at the half, 36-33, then saw Clemson extend its lead to 12 with an early 14-3 run for a 50-38 lead. But Battey fueled a comeback, hitting the first four points of a 9-0 burst, which also included a Shane Gatling 3-pointer and a Wright bucket, his first of the night after missing his first seven shots. Clemson momentarily halted the run with a Simms 3-pointer, but the Buffs then put seven unanswered points on the board to take their first lead of the game, 54-53, with 7:57 remaining. Bey started the run with a dunk, followed by another Battey offensive rebound and putback and free throw. Wright then capped the run with a steal and dunk. Clemson then regained the lead and pushed its edge to three at four different junctures over the ensuing three minutes before Colorado finally took control with a 9-0 run. Wright started the surge with a layup off a feed from Bey, followed by a Schwartz 3-pointer and two free throws each from Wright and Bey that turned a 63-60 deficit into a 69-63 lead. Clemson then cut the lead down to two with a free throw and Newman 3-point-er with 1:45 remaining. Colorado then missed two shots and Clemson one over the next minute, with the Tigers then taking a timeout with the Buffs still leading, 69-67, with 22.4 on the clock. That set the stage for Wright’s steal from Al-Amir Dawes and the ensuing free throws. Colorado had trouble connecting from the floor in the first half as Clemson carved out a 10-point lead, 27-17, with 6:07 left in the half. But the Buffs compensated for their problems from the floor by hitting 13 straight free throws that included an 8-0 run that pulled Colorado back within two, 27-25. Bey had four free throws in the surge and Daylen Kountz and D’Shawn each had a pair. Clemson then pushed the lead back to five before CU finally ended a 7:16 field goal drought with a Lucas Siewert 3-pointer. Maddox Daniels pulled the Buffs to within one, 34-33, with a 3-pointer with 49 seconds left in the half, but Clemson got a Curran Scott jumper with 21 seconds remaining to take a 36-33 edge into intermission. Bey had 10 points and three rebounds in the first half while Colorado’s Wright had a rare scoreless half.

BOULDER — The No. 21 Colorado Buffaloes relied on their defense Satur-day night to take a 59-45 win over Sacramento State at the CU Events Center. The Buffs struggled with shooting and committed a season-high 19 turnovers but their defense helped them to improve to 6-0. The Hornets fell to 4-1. Colorado’s Tyler Bey recorded his third straight double-double and fifth of the season (24th career) with 11 points and 17 rebounds. While CU shot just 44.4 percent from the field (20-for-45) and had just 10 assists, Colorado’s defense held the Hornets to 28 percent shooting (17-for-60). The Buffs led 24-16 at the half and built the margin to 28-16 early in the second half. Sacramento State managed to cut the gap to five late in the game but the Buffs held the Hornets at bay down the stretch. Bey’s double-double was his 16th in his last 22 games. “Honestly, I didn’t even think I had 17 rebounds tonight,” the CU junior said. “It didn’t even feel like it. I didn’t play well on offense, so I just let it come to me and it’s a habit every game.” Bey and Evan Battey both had 11 points to lead the team in scoring. Junior point guard McKinley Wright IV had 10 points and Lucas Siewert came alive off the bench with seven points, all in the second half. Ethan Esposito lead Sacramento State with 12 points. “We better get better at our half-court offense.” head coach Tad Boyle said. “We have to continue to work on that in practice and we will, but 19 turnovers is the number have to get rid of. Ten assists, it’s got to be flipped to 19 assists 10 turnovers.” HOW IT HAPPENED: Despite 12 first-half turnovers, the Buffs managed to take a 24-16 lead at the intermission. The Hornets struggled offensively due in large part to strong post defense from the Buffaloes. Sacramento State was held to just 16 first half points and shot 7-for-29 from the field before intermission. The Hornets’ shooting did not get much better in the second half and they finished the game at 28 percent (17-for-60). The Buffs were able to limit the Hornets leading scorer, Joshua Patton, to only four points on 1-for-8 shooting. Patton had entered the game averaging 18.5 points on 72 percent shooting. “I just have to give credit to Colorado, their team was ready to go.” Patton said. “They were real physical with me, I didn’t get some calls that I usually get. But you just have to play through it.” Boyle pointed to Battey as a player that defended Patton well. “We had Evan Battey on him and Evan Battey is a great post defender.” Boyle said. “We need to keep Evan out of foul trouble. He’s so smart, so sound, so tough, so aware. Evan is just really good. We challenged our post players to do a good job on Patton, and they responded.” The Buffs were finally able to widen their lead with an 11-0 run that began at the end of the first half and ended early in the second that expanded the lead to 28-16. Colorado began to draw more fouls in the second half. The Buffs found their way to the line but were not efficient from there shooting just 65.4 percent. After the Buffs hit 24 of 25 free throws in their last game, Boyle wasn’t happy with his team missing nine against the Hornets. “That’s on you as a player.” Boyle said. “If you can’t step to the line and make a 15 foot free shot, you better get to the gym and figure it out.” The Hornets fought back in the final minutes, cutting the Colorado lead to just five points on a 6-0 run with 4:04 left in the game. But the Buffs then pulled away, beginning with two made free throws from Shane Gatling and a Wright steal that lead to a Battey basket. The Buffs then finished with a 14-5 run.

BOULDER — What some saw as a warm-up for the Colorado Buffaloes ahead of Saturday’s game at Kansas came perilously close Wednesday to burn-ing a hole in CU’s national ranking. But the No. 20 Buffs righted themselves just in time, outscoring visiting Loyola Marymount 15-3 down the stretch to come away with a 76-64 win at the CU Events Center. The Buffs improved to 7-0 while LMU dropped to 3-5. The Buffs trailed at halftime, 34-30, and the Lions maintained their edge for much of the second half. Colorado didn’t regain the lead for good until a D’Shawn Schwartz 3-pointer broke a 61-61 tie and started a 7-0 run with 2:38 left in the game. Schwartz capped the run with a pair of free throws at the 1:23 mark and the Buffs then held the Lions at bay over the final minute. Schwartz and McKinley Wright IV shared scoring honors for CU with 16 points each while Tyler Bey had 13 points and nine rebounds. Wright also had six rebounds and five assists while Evan Battey had eight points and eight rebounds, including some big offensive rebounds and putbacks at critical moments. LMU’s Eli Scott led all scorers with 31 points. “Tip of my cap to Loyola Marymount,” head coach Tad Boyle said after the game. “I thought they came in here and played a heck of a game. We knew it wasn’t gonna be easy, and it wasn’t. I think sometimes you expect so much of yourself and your team that you forget that they have good players too.” The Buffs were definitely not at their best, committing 18 turnovers that led to 24 LMU points. But CU did win the rebounding battle, 39-30, and the Buffs also hit 25 of their 33 free throw attempts. That was enough to make up for Loyola’s 51.9 percent shooting night (27-for-52), the best by any CU opponent this year. HOW IT HAPPENED: Colorado trailed by four at intermission, 34-30, then saw the Lions push their lead to eight in the opening minutes with two quick buck-ets. With 14:02 to play, the Buffs still trailed by seven, 49-42, and had committed 17 turnovers. But from that point on, the Buffs began taking better care of the ball while also ratcheting up their defense a notch. They slowly chipped away at the lead, getting five straight points from a Schwartz 3-pointer and a Bey jumper, and finally regained the edge, 51-50, on a Lucas Siewert 3-pointer with 9:27 remaining. After Lucas Siewert’s 3-pointer, the lead changed hands five more times be-fore Schwartz put Colorado ahead for good with his trey at the 2:38 mark to start the decisive run. Colorado struggled from the field for much of the evening. The Buffs hit just 38.5 percent of their shots in the first half, including a stretch when they missed 10 in a row that allowed the Lions to take an eight-point lead. But they did shoot better in the second half — 12-for-27 — and more importantly, took care of the ball. After committing their 17th turnover of the game six minutes into the second half, they had just one more miscue the rest of the game. After Schwartz’s 3-pointer gave CU the lead, the Buffs then got a Bey rebound following an LMU missed free throw and Wright hit two free throws to push Colo-rado’s edge to 66-61. On LMU’s next possession, Bey came up with a big block on Scott and Schwartz drew a foul when CU gained possession. Schwartz then hit two free throws to push the Buffs’ cushion to 68-61 with 1:23 remaining. “A win is a win,” Wright said. “We’re one of the only undefeated teams in the country and we’re excited about that. I’m confident in my guys and I know they’re confident in me and we’re only going to get better.”

LAWRENCE, Kan. — Colorado’s offense never got untracked and Kansas dominated inside Saturday as the No. 20 Buffaloes fell from the unbeaten ranks with 72-58 loss at Allen Fieldhouse. Colorado fell to 7-1 while No. 2 Kansas improved to 7-1. The Buffs never led in the game. Kansas jumped out to a quick 6-0 lead and though the Buffs managed to cut the deficit to one with 14 minutes to go in the half, the Jayhawks used a 9-0 run to regain control and take a 12-point lead at intermission, 34-22. CU then managed to stay within striking range until midway through the sec-ond half, when Kansas finally started to pull away for good, increasing its lead to as much as 23. The Buffs had just one player in double figures, with Evan Battey scoring 14 points and grabbing seven rebounds. Tyler Bey had five points and nine rebounds and McKinley Wright IV had eight points and seven rebounds. Ochai Agbaji, one of three Jayhawks in double figures, led Kansas with 20 points. The Buffs shot just 18-for-60 from the field (30 percent), including an ice-cold 7-for-34 from 3-point range. Kansas shot 27-for-51 (52.9 percent) and hit six of its 13 3-point tries. KU also had a 39-36 rebounding edge and a dominating 38-22 edge in points in the paint. The Buffs finished with 17 turnovers but also forced 21 Kansas turnovers. “We had a lot of good looks that didn’t go in,” CU coach Tad Boyle said. “You have to make those shots … But I was really proud of our guys’ fight and their toughness and competitiveness. But we couldn’t make shots tonight.” HOW IT HAPPENED: The Buffs did manage to keep it close early, pulling to within 10-9 on back-to-back 3-pointers from Lucas Siewert with 14 minutes to go in the first half. But the Jayhawks answered with a 9-0 run to take control and Colorado never came closer than seven again, with Kansas pushing the cushion to 12 at the half. The Jayhawks’ defense collapsed in the paint all night, double-teaming CU’s big men at every opportunity and forcing to CU to shoot from the outside. The Buffs did get some open looks but they couldn’t connect, going 1-for-11 from the floor in a key first-half stretch. Battey was the only consistent shooter for the Buffs, hitting five of his eight field goal tries, including a couple putbacks off of his four offensive rebounds. The only other Buff to hit at least half of his shots was Eli Parquet, who was 2-for-4 from the floor. The rest of the Buffs combined to shoot 11-for-48. Bey, who entered the game as CU’s leading scorer at 14.0 points per game, was limited to just three field goal attempts as the Jayhawks made sure to sur-round him every time he touched the ball inside. Battey played well against Kansas big man Udoka Azubuike, who finished with 12 points and six rebounds, both under his season average. Agbaji did the most damage offensively for Kansas, hitting all four of his 3-point attempts in the second half as Kansas pulled away down the stretch. While CU held Kansas to 0-for-6 shooting from long range in the first half, the Jayhawks were 6-for-7 from beyond the arc after intermission. CU did close the deficit to 12 with just more than eight minutes to play when a Wright 3-pointer cut Kansas’ lead to 54-42. But the Jayhawks then opened up the cushion, building their lead into the 20s over the final minutes. Colorado’s 34 3-point attempts were 10 more than the Buffs’ previous season high.

BOULDER — Colorado coach Tad Boyle called Tuesday night’s matchup with Northern Iowa “the biggest trap game of the year” for the Buffaloes. The Panthers made Boyle’s fears come true, as UNI hit 14 3-pointers and scored the last six points of the game to produce a 79-76 win over No. 24 Colorado at the CU Events Center. The Buffs dropped to 7-2 with their second straight loss while UNI improved to 9-1. The Buffs battled back from a double-digit deficit early in the second half to take the lead midway through the period, and the game then saw 10 more lead changes down the stretch. CU used a 10-2 run to go up 76-73 with 1:39 to go, but the Panthers hit a 3-pointer with 1:10 to play, then added a layup off a turnover and a free throw in the final 50 seconds while the Buffs missed two 3-point tries in the final seconds. Lucas Siewert led CU with a career-high 21 points, McKinley Wright added 16 and Tyler Bey had 14. Trae Berhow and AJ Green each had 20 for UNI. The Panthers won the game from beyond the arc, shooting a red-hot 14-for-26 from long range. Northern Iowa also had a 31-29 edge in rebounds, including 15 offensive boards they converted into 15 second-chance points. “Extremely disappointing loss,” Boyle said. “I thought we fought hard in the second half to come back and take the lead, but our attention to detail is just not not good enough right now. It was really evident tonight by the way we guarded … They deserved to win. We did not.” HOW IT HAPPENED: After falling behind early, the Buffs came back and built a seven-point lead in the first half, thanks to Siewert scoring 15 straight points for Colorado, including every point in an 11-0 CU run. But the Panthers battled back and took a 33-32 halftime lead on the heels of an 8-0 burst, then put together an 11-0 surge to start the second half. That 19-0 run turned a 32-25 CU lead with four minutes to go in the first half into a 44-32 deficit barely two minutes into the second half. “There were stretches in the game where we just kind of fell asleep and ex-pected good things to happen,” Boyle said. “You have to make good things hap-pen for yourselves and that’s what Northern Iowa did. Northern Iowa out-executed us tonight.” The Buffs did gather themselves and battle back to regain the lead. A 9-0 run fueled by 3-pointers from Eli Parquet and Wright closed the gap to 44-41 and CU finally regained the lead, 55-53, on Siewert’s fifth 3-pointer of the night with 10:10 to play. “To our guys credit, they fought back,” Boyle said. “We took the lead. But we couldn’t hold onto it because we couldn’t stop them from three and we couldn’t limit them to one shot.” The game then became a see-saw battle, with the lead changing hands 10 times over the next eight minutes. Colorado trailed by five with just under four minutes to play, but the Buffs put together a 10-2 run to to up 76-73. Evan Battey gave CU a 74-73 lead with a three-point play with 2:13 remaining before Wright drove underneath to push Colorado’s lead to three with just 1:39 to go. But those were the last points the Buffs could muster. Green drained a 3-pointer — the Panthers’ 14th of the night — to tie the game with just more than a minute to go. The Buffs then turned it over on their next possession, with Spencer Haldeman stealing a Wright pass and collecting a layup. Colorado missed on its next possession and Green hit one of two free throws for a three-point edge. The Buffs then had possession with 27 seconds remaining and trailing by three, but they missed two 3-point tries in the last five seconds of the game.

FORT COLLINS — What could have been — maybe should have been — a runaway turned into a nail-biter for the Colorado Buffaloes here Friday night. But after allowing a 16-point second-half lead to melt away, Tad Boyle’s Buffs recovered down the stretch to come away with a 56-48 win over in-state rival Colorado State at Moby Arena. The No. 24 Buffs ended a two-game losing streak and improved to 8-2 while CSU dropped to 7-6. Colorado led 27-12 at the half and 36-20 early in the second half, only to see the Rams come back and tie the game at 39-39 with 7:14 left to play. But the Buffs slowly rebuilt their edge to 46-40 with under four minutes to play, then held the Rams at bay down the stretch by hitting eight free throws in the final minute. CU’s bench came up big in the game, with senior guard Shane Gatling scoring 20 points and Lucas Siewert chipping in 12 points and six rebounds. D’Shawn Schwartz added eight points and a career-high nine rebounds. Overall, CU’s bench scored 34 points while the starters had just 22. Isaiah Stevens had 10 points for CSU and Nico Carvacho had nine points and 10 rebounds. The Buffs overcame a season-high 21 turnovers that led to 14 CSU points, but did have a 44-32 edge on the boards. CU also held the Rams to just 29 percent shooting from the field (18-for-62), including just 2-for-22 from 3-point range. Colorado shot only 37.8 percent from the floor (17-for-45), but hit eight of its 18 3-point tries. HOW IT HAPPENED: Colorado led by 15 points at intermission, 27-12, and seemed to be in full control after holding CSU to 5-for-28 shooting (0-10 from 3-point range) in the first half. But after their ice-cold first half, the Rams began connecting and the Buffs compounded their woes by continuing to turn the ball over. Colorado State put together runs of 8-0 and 11-0, and with 7:14 to play, CSU tied the game at 39-39 on a David Roddy drive. The Buffs had five turnovers in a five-minute span to assist the CSU come-back, igniting a raucous crowd of 6,629. The Rams finished with 14 points off the CU miscues. But just when the crowd threatened to hit a fever pitch, the Buffs finally an-swered with a 7-1 run to regain control, getting three defensive stops in the surge. Gatling hit a short jumper, Daylen Kountz hit two free throws and Gatling buried a 3-pointer from the corner, giving the Buffs a 46-40 lead with just under four minutes to play. Gatling finished the night 7-for-12 from the floor, including 4-for-6 from long distance. But it was a 2-pointer that came with a friendly bounce with just more than two minutes remaining that gave CU a 48-43 lead and put the Buffs in control down the stretch. After Gatling’s bucket, CU’s Tyler Bey came up with a huge block on Car-vacho on the defensive end of the floor. CU then hit eight free throws in the final minute to seal the win. Colorado controlled the entire first half, using an 8-0 run to take a 12-2 lead at the 12:10 mark, with Gatling and Schwartz each draining 3-pointers in the run. Colorado’s defense frustrated the Rams for the entire half. CSU endured a 1-for-11 stretch from the field at one point, and finished the half shooting just 5-for-28, including an ice-cold 0-for-10 effort from 3-point range. The Buffs, meanwhile, managed to shoot 10-for-25, including a 4-for-7 half from Gatling (3-4 from beyond the arc). CSU managed to cut Colorado’s lead to 10 points late in the half but the Buffs came back with the final five points of the period — all from Gatling — to take a 27-12 edge into intermission.

BOULDER — Colorado played solid defense for 40 minutes and the Buffa-loes’ offense came alive down the stretch Thursday night, lifting CU to an 83-64 win over Prairie View A&M at the CU Events Center. The Buffs, who travel to Chicago on Saturday for a matchup with 13th-ranked Dayton, improved to 9-2 while Prairie View dropped to 3-8. Colorado led by just five with 10 minutes to play, but used a 17-3 run over a three-minute stretch late in the second half to pull away for good, building the lead to as much as 24 in the final minutes. Evan Battey led the Buffs with 20 points and nine rebounds while Tyler Bey had 13 points and seven rebounds. D’Shawn Schwartz also had 13 points for Colorado, all in the second half, including three 3-pointers in CU’s decisive run. McKinley Wright IV had 11 points, seven rebounds and six assists for CU. Gerard Andrus led PVAMU with 12 points. The Buffs held Prairie View to just 36.8 percent shooting (25-for-68), including 1-for-9 from 3-point range. The Buffs shot an even 50 percent from the floor (26-for-52) despite a 5-for-20 night from long range and Colorado also held an 43-29 edge on the boards. “A good workmanlike effort,” CU coach Tad Boyle said. “I really thought there were some really some things we can build on, especially offensively. Eighteen assists, which is always a good number on 26 baskets — we’ll take that every night. We still turned it over a little bit too much (16 turnovers) … but I like how we shared the ball and moved the ball. We’ll take the win and we’ll move on and and now it’s on to Chicago and the Dayton Flyers.” HOW IT HAPPENED: After taking a seven-point lead at the half, 35-28, Col-orado built its cushion to as much as 11 early in the second half. Battey had 11 points for the Buffs in the first seven minutes of the half and a Lucas Siewert bucket at the 13:30 mark gave Colorado a 48-37 lead. But the Panthers refused to go away, cutting the margin back to five, 50-45, on a pair of Faite Williams free throws with 10:01 remaining. That’s when the Buffs found their offensive footing, thanks in large part to Schwartz. The CU junior had a nice pump-fake and bucket for his first points of the game to put Colorado up by seven, 54-47, then hit two straight 3-pointers in a 10-0 run that gave CU a 66-49 cushion with just more than six minutes to play. “I just needed to see something go in,” Schwartz said. “Once I get one, I feel like the basket gets huge. Kin (Wright) told me to just keep shooting it and keep shooting it. If guys really believe in you, that’s going to help you play well.” The Panthers finally stopped CU’s run with a free throw, but the Buffs came back with another 7-0 surge, capped by another Schwartz 3-pointer, to put the game away. Colorado built its lead to as much as 24 over the final two minutes.Battey continues to grow as a force for the Buffs on both ends of the floor, just missing the second double-double of his career. He hit 10 of his 11 free throw tries — the Buffs were 26-for-28 — as he drew eight fouls in the game. Wright, meanwhile, had a workmanlike effort with his 11 points on 4-for-5 shooting along with seven rebounds, six assists and two blocked shots. The Buffs led by seven at the half, 35-28, thanks in large part to hitting 13 of their 14 free throw attempts. CU broke away from a 15-15 tie with a 6-0 run to take control with 6:16 to play in the half, then built the lead to as much as nine before taking a 7-point edge into intermission. The Buffs shot 10-for-23 in the opening half while PVAMU was 13-for-38. The Panthers stayed in the game by collecting seven offensive rebounds, which they converted into seven second-chance points. The Buffs had 20 total rebounds, but just two on the offensive end.

CHICAGO — Colorado junior D’Shawn Schwartz calmly drained a 3-pointer at the buzzer Saturday to lift the Buffaloes to a heart-stopping 78-76 win over No. 13 Dayton in overtime at the United Center. While the calendar said December, the game had every bit of a March Madness feel to it, as the Buffs erased a 14-point first-half deficit to take a second-half lead, only to see the Flyers rally to tie it up in the final seconds of regulation. The Buffs then outscored Dayton 12-10 in the extra period to improve to 10-2 while Dayton dropped to 9-2. Schwartz’s game winner — his fifth 3-pointer of the game — came after the Flyers had taken a 76-75 lead with 10 seconds remaining. CU point guard McKinley Wright IV quickly pushed the ball down the floor and found Tyler Bey underneath, who immediately drew a double team inside. Bey then whirled and found a wide-open Schwartz on the right wing and he nailed the 3-pointer just before the buzzer to set off a wild Buffs celebration. “I didn’t feel anything,” said Schwartz, who also had five 3-pointers in a win over Dayton in last season’s NIT. “It was literally like in a dream.” Schwartz finished with a season-high 20 points while Wright was a standout all night for the Buffaloes, finishing with 29 points and 10 rebounds for his sixth career dou-ble-double. Evan Battey was once again a force inside, finishing with nine points and 12 rebounds and Bey added 12 points and six rebounds and two assists. Colorado shot just 39.7 percent from the floor (27-for-68) while Dayton finished shooting 50 percent (32-for-64). But the Buffs hit 17 of their 21 free throws, held a 42-32 edge in rebounds and finished with a 16-11 edge in second-chance points. The Buffs also finished with just 10 turnovers — their second-lowest total of the season — while forcing 14 Dayton miscues. “The toughness and grit that our guys showed down the stretch was amazing,” coach Tad Boyle said. “We talked a lot about trusting each other. That last possession, McKin-ley trusted Tyler in the post and he gets the double team and he throws it out to a wide-open shooter and D’Shawn steps up and knocks it down. I just can’t say enough about this group. This is a big-time win against a big-time program in a big-time environment.” HOW IT HAPPENED: Dayton threatened to turn the game into a blowout early, using an 11-0 run to jump out to a 19-5 lead less than six minutes in. But Boyle called a timeout before the game got out of hand, and the Buffs responded with a 15-2 surge to pull within one, and still trailed by only four at the half, 36-32. Battey fueled the comeback with some big offensive rebounds and four points, Daylen Kountz added five points in the surge and Wright had four. After the Flyers hit eight of their first nine field goal tries of the game, they were just 8-for-19 the rest of the half. Wright, who originally committed to the Flyers in high school but then signed with Colorado after then-coach Archie Miller left the program, was greeted with boos by the partisan Dayton crowd virtually every time he touched the ball. But the CU junior had the last laugh, as he helped fuel a 15-4 run early in the second half that finally gave Colorado the lead. Wright hit a driving layup to tie the score at 40-40 and seconds later, Battey hit two free throws to give the Buffs their first lead of the game with 14:41 to play. Battey also took the game personally, as he and Bey were matched against Dayton star Obi Toppin for much of the game. While Toppin did hit a 3-pointer for Dayton at the end of regulation to force overtime, the Buffs still held him to 17 points and 7 rebounds, both under his season averages. Battey was once again particularly effective on the offensive boards, collecting eight offensive rebounds to give the Buffs some much-needed second-chance opportunities. The Buffs pushed their second-half lead to as much as eight, taking a 59-51 edge with 7:51 remaining on a Schwartz 3-pointer. But the Flyers slowly chipped away at the cushion, finally pulling to within one, 64-63, with 1:56 to play on a Toppin dunk. Battey then hit one of two free throws after an offensive rebound to push CU’s lead to 65-63 with 35 seconds remaining before Wright added one of two free throws after a Dayton miss with 13.8 left. But Toppin, who had missed five straight 3-point attempts, finally hit his first trey of the night with six seconds remaining in regulation to tie the game at 66-66 and force overtime. Schwartz then took charge in the overtime, scoring eight of Colorado’s 12 points in the five-minute extra period. He hit a 3-pointer with 3:18 to play that gave the Buffs a 71-68 lead, then drove to the basket for a layup with 27 seconds remaining for a 75-74 lead. Then, after Crutcher gave Dayton its final lead of the night, the Buffs delivered the game-winner.
