The Buffaloes put on a resume-justifying show against No. 18 SMU on Wednesday night but a bad night from the free throw line doomed them as they fell 70-66, ending an 11 game winning streak.
Josh Scott once again paced the Buffaloes with 12 points and 12 rebounds and Josh Fortune led in the scoring column with 15 points. Scott's two for seven night from the night could have been the difference in the final margin.
The Buffaloes had a seven-point lead with just over seven minutes remaining but a 14-1 SMU run ended most hope of a Colorado upset.
