Twi-lights: More parties in LA, CU Buffs lose 77-53

 

The Colorado Buffaloes lost their second straight in Los Angeles, dropping to 19-9 (8-7) by way of a 77-53 loss to UCLA. Colorado never led and the Bruins had the game in hand early.

Here are BSN Denver’s tweets of the game:

Switching the starting lineup in basketball isn't really similar to it in baseball aside from the switching part. #CUvsUCLA

Ah, lovely start for the #CUBuffs

— Parker Baruh (@ParkerBaruh) February 21, 2016

Not exactly the start Tad was hoping for from the #1 cop.

Is it too early to #sigh? That was a pretty sigh-able exchange…

— Benjamin Burrows (@Rumblinbuffalo) February 21, 2016

Two turnovers in less than two minutes for Colorado.

*psst* Fletch's stroke is coming around…

Bet you could hear that Wes Gordon block from the top row of the stadium

Turnover drinking game already having an effect on RK, gives Buffs extra point https://t.co/LCl3uAgEnM

I should've mentioned, I'm in a feisty mood tonight.

Love the new effort King is bringing to rebounding the last few games.

— James Lucas (@CUGoose) February 21, 2016

Backcut by Scott? Is that a first?

— Benjamin Burrows (@Rumblinbuffalo) February 21, 2016

Dom with a little fire coming off the bench

Maybe the benching will pump Collier up tonight. Easy to forget he's 2nd in the Pac12 in 3-point%. Already hit his first tonight

— Matan Halzel (@matanhalzel) February 21, 2016

I promised four Welsh baseline jumpers, he already has two

What's a gal gotta do to get a defensive stop around here, #Buffs?

— Abbey Shea (@abbeyshea) February 21, 2016

9-3 run for UCLA extends Bruins lead vs #CUBuffs to 28-20 with 7:14 left in half. CU 5-for-8 on 3s but 2-for-11 on 2s

Wes Gordon with dos fouls is less than ideal.

— Eric 🦬 (@EricMetcalfe) February 21, 2016

Tommy just Stefon'd the ref.

— RK (@RyanKoenigsberg) February 21, 2016

A pick and roll! It actually happened!

— Benjamin Burrows (@Rumblinbuffalo) February 21, 2016

XT! Kill em, kid!

— Benjamin Burrows (@Rumblinbuffalo) February 21, 2016

XT. XT. XT.

— Justin Faudree (@SmoothsHoops) February 21, 2016

Xavier Talton a perfect three-for-three from three-point range to start the game. #CUBuffs cut UCLA's lead to five.

— Adam Munsterteiger (@adamcm777) February 21, 2016

XT!! Sterling, CO lets goooo!

— Eric 🦬 (@EricMetcalfe) February 21, 2016

Buffs went almost 4 min w/out point, but get quick 5 to cut UCLA lead to 30-25 w/ 4:23 left in half.

— Neill Woelk (@NeillWoelk) February 21, 2016

Talton keeping the #Buffs in this game. 9 points, 3-3 from 3 point land. #UCLA up 30-25

— Matan Halzel (@matanhalzel) February 21, 2016

Buffs credited w/ 9 assists so far. That’s how many they had against USC in the entire game.

— Neill Woelk (@NeillWoelk) February 21, 2016

They did.

— RK (@RyanKoenigsberg) February 21, 2016

Uh oh.

— Benjamin Burrows (@Rumblinbuffalo) February 21, 2016

9-0 run for UCLA to jump out to a 14-point lead.

New rule – unless you're Josh (and maybe Wes), you're only allowed to shoot 3's.

— James Lucas (@CUGoose) February 21, 2016

#CUBuffs shooting 7-of-13 from three-point range, 3-of-17 from inside-the-arc.

Welp.

Well, that was fun. Time for whiskey.

Well, that half was not surprising. #CUBuffs

This game is in blowout territory already..53-32 UCLA leads. *Sigh*

Tad Boyle used his timeouts tonight. Can't criticize him for that.

— Justin Faudree (@SmoothsHoops) February 21, 2016

Idk I'm sitting back with this cocktail and this TAD KEEPS IT REAL shirt and ordering food. I'm unclear on who we thought we were.

Guy at BST saw me writing and asked if I was writing a "Late-night f*** you email."
I said, "Basically."
