The Colorado Buffaloes continue their downward slide, losing to the USC Trojans to fall to 15-14 on the season and 7-11 in Pac-12 play.
Just an hour after the CU women lost to Stanford in a low-scoring, brick-laying game, the Trojans proved that there was nothing wrong with the CUEC rims. No matter what kind of shots they threw up, everything was going in, or at least 63% of them. The Buffs have had an elite defensive unit — 18th best in the country, according to KenPom — but there’s not much to do about Boogie Ellis and Reece Dixon-Waters hitting contested threes.
