The Colorado Buffaloes remain undefeated after completing the comeback victory against the Oklahoma State Cowgirls on Sunday night.
The Buffs built a 30-18 lead early in the 2nd quarter, but the Cowgirls went on a 39-11 run in the next 13 minutes of gametime. Everything had to go wrong for JR Payne’s team during this stretch. Their usually stout defense struggled to get stops, as Okie State’s Stailee Heard and Anna Gret Asi both caught fire from outside.
Once the Buffs were unable to push the pace after rebounds and turnovers, their halfcourt offense stalled. It didn’t help that the shooting just wasn’t there in the first half, as CU stars Frida Formann and Quay Miller were ice cold from beyond the arc, combining for just 2/14 on threes in this game.
