Fresh off a 82-73 victory over the Washington State Cougars earlier this week, the Colorado Buffaloes men’s basketball team played host to Washington on Saturday night.
Despite jumping to an early lead in the first half, the Buffs, (12-8, 4-4 Pac-12), in large part to ineffective rebounding, dug themselves a hole later in the initial half and eventually lost, 72-62.
On the night, Washington snagged an eyebrow-raising 50 rebounds, compared to CU’s 34. The Huskies managed 20 points off of second chance opportunities in the offensive zone, many of them coming from key rebounds near the rim.
