Even without Josh Scott, the Colorado Buffaloes took care of business at home.
CU completed a home sweep of the Washington schools Saturday afternoon, surging ahead during the first half and overcoming a slow start after halftime to defeat the Washington Huskies 81-80 at the Coors Events Center.
The Buffs used a 12-0 run during the first half to take control, building a 46-34 lead at halftime.
CU weathered a near-disastrous start to the second half, as the first six possessions after the break resulted in four turnovers, a shot that was blocked, and a missed 3-pointer.
