BOULDER — The fun games make you dream. The best ones, the keepers, make you believe.
Saturday at CU Events Center was for believers. Believers, grinders and champions.
“We knew,” CU point guard McKinley Wright said after the No. 24 Buffs rallied to hold off Stanford 81-74 behind 59 second-half points, “we couldn’t afford to lose this game.”
We’re not trying to get ahead of ourselves here, but …
Ah, to heck with it. We totally are.
Everything was poised to go off the rails. Everything. Two minutes into the second half, they were down 16.
