#3 ranked Women's basketball (16-2 overall; 6-1 in Pac play), after a 4 game homestand, begins a 4 game road swing, with all 4 in the Pacific Northwest, this weekend. 1st off is a tough matchup against the newly ranked #25 Oregon State University (OSU) Beavers (15-3, 4-3) this Friday evening, followed up by a Sunday matinee in Eugene against the Oregon Ducks (11-9, 2-5). (The Ducks and Beavers are also the next home games in 3 weekends for the Buffs, so the teams should be pretty familiar with each other by the time they've done playing in Boulder.)

Both games are scheduled to be on one or more Pac 12 Network channels. (Further info and links for media options available near the bottom of this post.)

Note- In the NET Rankings as I type this (for games through 1/22/24, https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/basketball-women/d1/ncaa-womens-basketball-net-rankings), CU is at #17, while the Beavers are #22 and Ducks #91.

Go Buffs!!!

No. 3 Colorado Hits the Road: Five Things To Know​

Buffs set for Oregon State and Oregon this weekend

By: Seth Pringle, Athletic Communications

CORVALLIS, Ore. – No. 3 Colorado heads off to the Beaver State for a pair of road battles at No. 25 Oregon State (Friday, 8 p.m. MT) and Oregon (Sunday, 1 p.m. MT).

Colorado (16-2, 6-1 Pac-12) remained at No. 3 this week in the Associated Press rankings for the second consecutive week. It matches the team's highest ranking this season. The No. 3 designation also marks the team's highest ranking since finishing the 1994-95 season at No. 2 in the country.

Oregon State (15-5, 4-3 Pac-12) cracked the top 25 for the first time this season. The Beavers split last week with a win over Cal before dropping the Sunday contest against Stanford. OSU is 0-3 this season against AP-ranked opponents. Colorado native Raegan Beers ranks fourth in the NCAA in field goal %, shooting 67.5% this season.

Oregon (11-9, 2-5 Pac-12) swept the Arizona schools at home two weeks ago but got swept last week by Stanford and Cal. The Ducks open the weekend with No. 16 Utah on Friday and are 0-4 against AP-ranked opponents this season. Phillipina Kyei leads the Pac-12 and is seventh in the NCAA with her 12 double-doubles this season.

Five things to know
  1. Ranked Games Continue – Friday's matchup pits No. 3 vs No. 25. It will be CU's fourth consecutive game against ranked opponents, having gone 2-1 in the stretch so far. It is the first time the Buffs have played four consecutive ranked teams since Feb. 16 – 28, 2020 (No. 8 Stanford, No. 24 Arizona State, No. 11 Arizona & No. 9 UCLA). Colorado went 1-3 in the last stretch.
  2. Ranked Wins x5 – With a win on Friday, Colorado will have five ranked wins on the season. CU is 4-1 this season against top-25 opponents. Colorado also had four ranked wins last season. It will be the most ranked wins for CU since recording six in the 2001-02 season (6-10).
  3. Close Calls – Colorado is 4-1 in games decided by five points or less since the start of the 2022-23 season. CU is 2-0 this season and have and has won four straight games decided by five points or less (last, 63-59, USC).
  4. Strong Open – CU's 16-2 record through 18 games matches its best start through 18 games since the 2003-04 season. The Buffs went 18-2 before suffering their third loss that season at Kansas State (Feb. 8).
  5. Road Buffs – Colorado is 4-0 on opponent's floors this season. CU is a combined 14-5 in true road games since the 2022-23 season. Gill Coliseum has proven to be a tough place to play for CU with a 2-8 record in Corvallis. The Buffs own a 3-9 record in Eugene. The two games are a part of CU's longest road trip of the season. Colorado will play on the road at Washington State and Washington next week.
Both games this weekend will be broadcast on the Pac-12 Network. Ann Shatz and Mary Murphy will call Friday's action. Rich Burk and Jennifer Mountain will be on the mic vs Oregon on Sunday.

Cory Lopez and Carol Callan will have pregame coverage starting 30 minutes before tip-off on the Colorado Radio Network.

Yeah. Beavers played really tough d to end that quarter and the buffs couldn’t get anything going in the half court offense. Refs helped
 
Vonleh just gave this game away.

Absolutely zero reason for her to even be there, let alone reach out and touch her.
 
That was not the best decision on Vonleh’s part at end 3rd. 4th foul and gave OSU 3 points.
 
Crowd is really into the game, which isn’t helping. My daughter said the OSU looks calmer on offense and CU look frantic.
 
This team has no intention to win this game.

Three possessions in a row someone stood with the ball and an open 3, wouldn't take the shot.

Quay finally takes one and misses.

Not hard to defend when you only have to take away the paint
