The Colorado Buffaloes dropped another close game on Thursday night, falling 75-69 to the Oregon Ducks in Eugene.
The Buffs faced a double-digit second half deficit and rallied for the comeback, but it fell short. Their comeback efforts showcased the strengths and weaknesses of the team, as they shut down the Ducks offense, only allowing contested jumpers and free throws. CU got some key buckets down the stretch — Tristan da Silva’s three cut the lead to 63-62 with two minutes left — but the offense sputtered out, partly due to poor shot selection.
Da Silva and Clifford were tremendous in this game.
