While Utah is far from the team it was on Jan. 8 and gets the benefit of playing on its home court, the Buffs have historically played Utah physically and emphasized defense and rebounding. Larry Krystkowiak and Tad Boyle are tied in the series at 5 apiece, and have a great deal of respect for one another. Colorado also has the rare post player who is a true match for Jakob Poeltl: Josh Scott might just be the most under-appreciated player in the conference this year.
Many fans will come to say goodbye and good luck to Utah's departing players.
