Colorado fights their way to a 2-0 homestand with a win over Washington.
The Colorado Buffaloes do not like to make it easy on themselves. In the second close game of the week, the Buffs managed to hold off the visiting Washington Huskies 81-80. Wesley Gordon lead the Buffs with 17 points and 13 rebounds as he recorded his third straight double-double in three games where five of the six halves have been played without Josh Scott.
Washington opened the scoring with a Matisse Thybulle three and looked to be the stronger team early on.
