BOULDER – Colorado soccer's non-conference schedule ends with a pair of in-state rivals this week. The Buffaloes host Northern Colorado on Thursday and travel to Denver on Saturday.
The Buffs are coming off a hard-fought 3-2 overtime loss to No. 6 Florida State last week. The team now refocuses its attention the Bears and Pioneers.
"These local derby matches are huge," head coach Danny Sanchez commented. "They're circled on other teams' calendars and their get circled on our calendar. We know we've played a few of these Thursday afternoon matches, and I don't think we've come out with the intensity and focus that we've needed to against Drake and Austin Peay. We know that Northern Colorado is well-coached, they played a brutal schedule so far. You don't have to look any further than their game where they took Missouri to overtime when they had been on the road for two weeks. We need to match their intensity and focus to get a result."
...
Fans in attendance on Thursday can enjoy $1 hot dogs.
Both games will be televised. Thursday (4 p.m.) can been seen on the Pac-12 Networks. Saturday (7:30 p.m.) will be on Altitude 2.
