Colorado earned one of its most impressive victories last night against Stanford. It started off slowly against the Cardinal, shooting just over 20% in the first half and went into the break trailing 33-22. The Buffs poured it on in the second half scoring 59 points and quickly erased a 17-point deficit. CU was aided by a scary collision early in the half when forward Evan Battey collided with Stanford’s Oscar da Silva. Battey inadvertently elbowed da Silva in the head and he had to be helped from the court after laying motionless on the baseline for several minutes. Visibly shaken, Battey joined all the players and coaches from both teams in a prayer circle at center court. Already short-handed, Stanford never recovered and the Buffs rolled to victory, 81-74.
