Hell No
We're Kidnapping Oregon's Cheerleaders
I may not be going to work tomorrow because of the snow, but my ass will be at the game tonight.

Hope it holds off for you guys. This is exactly the type of game in which a lethargic CU performance due to no crowd could come back and bite us in the ass.
Women were horrendous tonight. Shot 29% and committed 22 turnovers. That's with 37.5% from 3 (6/16). 9/36 (25%) from 2pt range is inexcusable.
Defense wasn't much better than the offense, allowing 45% shooting.
45-65 final.
Must win at Oregon this weekend.
Ouch. Wonder if they weren't able to fully put that UCLA loss behind them. The Buffs have really been struggling these last couple weeks -- it was looking like they had a great shot at the Big Dance, and now those hopes are hanging by a tiny little thread. A loss at Oregon officially ends those hopes, imo. The overall record is still respectable, 15-6, but we've now slipped to 4-6 in the Pac. Considering we still have to visit the Bay Area, that's not a good sign. Oregon is a very winnable game - let's get the W in Eugene and build momentum for this upcoming 3 game homestand. Hopefully this is just a mini-slump similiar to what we saw from the men during this exact same time frame last season. The men snapped out of it and came on strong to end the season last year, and I know the women can do the same this year.
I'm not sure it has been mentioned, but the men's team reached a milestone with last night's win. 39 wins over 2 seasons is the most ever for CU Men's Basketball.
Consecutive seasons? That is awesome. Let's get some more!
Yeah, consecutive.
It's gonna be really kewl when the Buffs reach 20 wins in consecutive season.
We should have listened to Colorado fans.

Tad owns your mom... at altitude.
Ducks may not be able to fly out until Saturday.
I had to stop listening. It was too painful.
Women lost yet AGAIN, 67-62 at Oregon. Buffs were up 34-21, and then allowed the Ducks to go on an 18-0 run. Now 15-7 (4-7), and have lost 5/7, including 3 in a row. They return to Boulder for a 3 game home stand. Utah and Arizona are the bottom two teams in the Pac, but Arizona State is pretty solid (tied for 3rd and completely wrecked us in Tempe).
For the Buffs to get back to having any shot at the NCAA Tournament, they need to win these next 3 games, which would bring them to 18-7 (7-7). They then have to visit the Bay Area, which is a virtually guaranteed two losses, so that would drop them to 18-9 (7-9). They then finish up with the Oregon schools at home, both of whom are mediocre at best (despite what happened this weekend). It's possible to win both of those, and if the Buffs were to do that and finish 21-9 (9-9), then perhaps they'd likely have a shot to Dance. Unfortunately it's tough to see CU winning all 5 of their remaining home games and WNIT seems the likely destination at this point.
First things first though. Get a win over Arizona on Thursday.
