Thanks to George King, the Colorado Buffaloes overcame a poor effort to defeat the Washington State Cougars 88-81 in double-overtime.

Here are BSN Denver’s tweets of the game.

Tad Boyle says in the pregame show that this is a game the Buffs should win. He's right. #Pac12Hoops

Jerry on the sideline just tried to spin the ball on his finger before giving it back to the ref.

Just me, or are the rims really soft tonight?

Buffs had a great start but are 1 of their last 8 from the field and lead by only 2. Can't let Wazzu hang around. #Pac12Hoops

Buffs doing everything they can to try and lose this game. So much bad going on here.

I am literally speechless on that call.

— James Lucas (@CUGoose) February 12, 2016

This isn't a bad loss. This is a potential "we're not dancing" loss.
