I would hope with the Buff's record they might be safely in the tournament no matter what, but with their RPI at 39, and Utah's at 82 (and with the Buffs showing a 3 match losing streak (albeit to 3 top 10 teams), assume it will take a win on Friday for the Tournament selection show to be a little less-stressful for team and fans.

Also, always love senior days- would definitely attend if I was in the area. Hope they get a great crowd this Friday at 3:00!

Go Buffs!!!

BOULDER—The University of Colorado soccer team closes out the regular season, hosting Utah on Friday. The game will be the final regular season game for the Buffaloes seven seniors.

Colorado (13-3-2, 5-3-2 Pac-12) looks to close out the regular season on a high note. The Buffs have lost their last three matches, all coming against teams ranked in the top-10. Utah (8-8-2, 5-4-1 Pac-12) is just one point behind Colorado in the Pac-12 standings, having tied No. 2 USC on Sunday.

"Utah has been great in conference play," head coach Danny Sanchez noted. "They have had some good results. They beat Washington State. They have tied USC. It is a must win for the Buffs as we hopefully look forward to the NCAA Tournament."

CU will honor its seven seniors in a pregame ceremony on the field. Scout Watson, Jorian Baucom, Nancy Best, Isobel Dalton, Megan Massey, Sarah Kinzner and Erin Greening will each get recognized for their contributions to the Colorado soccer program.

"We have seven great seniors," Sanchez added. "We will have a great dinner on Thursday night. They will give some emotional speeches and hopefully say some nice things about the program. At the end of the day, it is a good group. We have three fifth-year seniors in there. It is a great group of young ladies who have been a large part of our success this year and in the past. We are going to miss them, and I know they are going to want to go out with a win."

The game is set for a 3 p.m. kickoff and will be broadcast on Pac-12 Mountain.

Big game for the Buffs as they have lost three straight - all to great teams. They were close against both USC and UCLA. In theory Utah won't be as good as those two.
And let's hope the Buffs get one home match in the NCAA tourney.
 
Early with the starting lineup today (although match time is closing in) -


Note- I'm not sure if I'll be able to provide updates for this match or not.
 
Ugh... Baucom thought she got the equalizer but whistled offsides. Still down 4 min left
 
I was at the match yesterday. CU outplayed Utah for a good portion of the game, but just couldn't score. That's been the problem the last few matches as well. The scoring mojo they had earlier in the season seems to be gone.

And with the scoring mojo gone there is a lot more pressure to hold the opposition scoreless. Unfortunately, they just can't do that right now. There are a few little breakdowns at one or two moments in the match where they give up a weak goal. Then they are chasing the match. It's tough.
