LOS ANGELES — After taking care of business last week on a crucial two-game homestand, Colorado heads west this week for a two-game road trip that could give the Buffaloes a big boost in several critical areas.
Tad Boyle's Buffs open the trip Thursday with a 7 p.m. (MT) game at Southern California (Pac-12 Networks) followed by a 6 p.m. game Saturday at seventh-ranked UCLA (Fox).
While the Buffs (11-6 overall, 3-3 Pac-12) aren't even at the halfway point of the conference season, this is one of those road trips that offers all kinds of opportunity.
