The Colorado Buffaloes’ dream season continued last night as Kindyll Wetta’s last-second three-pointer toppled the #8 UCLA Bruins in overtime.
J.R. Payne’s team is no stranger to upsets over top-10 teams, as they knocked off the previously undefeated Utah Utes earlier this season, and many of these same players were around for their win over #1 Stanford in 2021. This team knew exactly what it had to do against a talented Bruins that can be sped up and made uncomfortable by defensive pressure.
After a starting slow because of foul trouble and poor shooting, the Buffs hit their stride when Wetta and Jaylyn Sherrod started causing havoc on the defensive end.
