George King, as always, opens things up for the Buffs with a three.

Defense hasn't gotten any better I guess

Buffs defense picking up where it left off.

Coaches definitely asked Wes to be more aggressive and try to get Hawkinson in foul trouble. Drew one and the bucket there. Tied at 11, U16.

When the Buffs play defense, good things happen on the offensive end.

@RyanKoenigsberg weird what getting stops will get you.

Good gracious, Wes Gordon with all the moves tonight!

— Benjamin Burrows (@Rumblinbuffalo) January 24, 2016

Wes those offensive moves are 🔥

@RyanKoenigsberg beat ya by 12 seconds

— Benjamin Burrows (@Rumblinbuffalo) January 24, 2016

After making a three, there is a 100% chance of George King taking an ill-advised shot early in the clock the next possession.

XT trying to have that Kate Fagan senior year from the line.

@RyanKoenigsberg that bites

— Kyle Ringo (@KyleRingo) January 24, 2016

Buffs let em cut it to seven. Not ideal, not terrible.

— RK (@RyanKoenigsberg) January 24, 2016

Brutal close to the half but have to take up 7 without Josh for the last 11 minutes.

"Oooooooooooh"

XT just got a roll that I'm not sure I've ever seen before.

— RK (@RyanKoenigsberg) January 24, 2016

If the Buffs decide to play defense at any point this half they will win.

The jump shots stopped falling, not getting it into the paint, and *poof* that lead is gone. Lotta work left to do.

— Benjamin Burrows (@Rumblinbuffalo) January 24, 2016

Make an open shot

— Tyler Ziskin (@TZiskBuff) January 24, 2016

Elsewhere in the Pac-12, California just defeated Arizona, giving them a shot at Top 25 next week. Bears need to start winning on the road.

What happens if no one wins the PAC 12 Tournament?

— Mateo Martinez (@mateomuhammad) January 24, 2016

Big free throws from George, then he just hand WSU the ball for no reason. Full GK experience there

— Benjamin Burrows (@Rumblinbuffalo) January 24, 2016

WSU 70 CU 71. CU ball 22 seconds left.

— Jake Shapiro, but festive 🎁 (@Shapalicious) January 24, 2016

Oh boy…

— Benjamin Burrows (@Rumblinbuffalo) January 24, 2016

8-2 WSU run in the last minute. Two turnovers by Buffs a big factor in the run.

— Neill Woelk (@NeillWoelk) January 24, 2016

Oh, XT wants it.

— Benjamin Burrows (@Rumblinbuffalo) January 24, 2016

#CUBuffs made it waaaaay more interesting than it needed to be, but still leave Pacific Northwest with a road split in Washington. 15-5 now.

That's what the kids call a #RoadDub, folks. 75-70.
