With NCAA tourney hopes likely over, CU Buffs have work to do for NIT berth

The Buffs already were on thin ice for a potential at-large bid before heading to the Pacific Northwest for a two-game swing through Washington, and the losses to last-place Washington State in addition to Washington ended those hopes.

Sure, the Buffs pulled the four-wins-in-four-days trick at the 2012 Pac-12 tournament, but that was as a No.
