SALT LAKE CITY — Without playing a game this week, the Colorado Buffaloes managed to improve their chances at a top-four Pac-12 finish.
Saturday, they can clinch one of those spots — and the first-round conference tournament bye that goes with it — by collecting a win in their 12:30 p.m. game at Utah (Pac-12 Networks).
The Buffs (21-9 overall, 10-7 Pac-12) had control of their fortunes returned to their hands Thursday when Arizona State lost to Washington and Stanford fell at Oregon State.
