And my vote goes to...
KJ Simpson (20/6/5 and 45% from the 3 pt line). I know y'all are surprised... lol...
Zona's embarrassing loss to SC and Caleb Love laying an egg on 1/10 shooting certainly didn't help his case.
Throw-in the Buffs 6-game winning streak and I am hoping that is enough to get KJ the award.

-Oregon hosting Utah

Saw that posted looks like several 23 win seasons but assuming that includes post season?

Now that the season is over I thought I see how many Big 12 controlled games were on ESPN+ who is the "conference network" of the Big 12

TV Broadcast 68% were on ESPN+, in conference 48% were on ESPN+

For the PAC 12 it was 64% on the PAC 12 network and in conference 49%

I will do an total for the WBB, will not do a conference breakout

Two really good teams during it out for the MVC Title right now on CBS.

CU finishes third in the Pac-12 and clinches a No. 3 seed in Pac-12 tournament with a pivotal Quad 1 win vs. Oregon.

Watched the mens and women slalom event last night under the lights in Steamboat for the Ski Natty Championship. Gold medal for Wahlquist (M) and Lusac (W) and the team gained 5 points on Utah. CU has the best Nordic team i believe and today in the final event of the national championship the team needs to make up 51 points on the Utes. Definitely a long shot but its in our crib so who knows as the 20k classic event can have interesting outcomes.

The men need to close the gap at 10 am and the women have to crush the field at noon. Keep good thoughts.
Go Buffs.

Happy Saturday everyone! Buffs in Corvallis today for their final regular season game. What a season it has been for the Buffs, but they're ending strong as they look for their sixth straight win against the Beavers, who are currently last in the Pac-12. No Cody Williams and no Julian Hammond today. Starters:

Colorado
Luke O'Brien (6.4 ppg)
J'Vonne Hadlley (12.2)
KJ Simpson (19.8)
Tristan da Silva (16.4)
Eddie Lampkin (6.9)

Oregon State
Jordan Pope (17.9 ppg)
Dexter Akanno (10.6)
Michael Rataj (8.4)
Tyler Bildeau (14.4)
Chol Marial (2.4)

In a post game interview coach Boyle mentioned this as a possibility. Honestly, I agree. The line up right now has being playing great because of a combination of cohesiveness and experience. To have a player of his caliber coming off the bench against other teams bench players could be an advantage. Also the fact that he might be a one and done player, this may not effect team chemistry that much. Not saying this should be permanent if they make a run in the Pac 12 tournament but could be on the table. Thoughts?

Hellooo everyone! Hopefully MBB can help ease the 2OT heartbreaker in Vegas for WBB vs. Oregon State with their own Oregon win tonight. The headline matchup for the Buffs as they continue to battle their way into the tournament. Both CU and Oregon sit 11-7 in the Pac-12. Should be a good one. Buffs will be without Cody Williams (ankle) and Julian Hammond III (knee) tonight in Eugene. Starters:

Colorado:
Luke O'Brien (6.4 ppg)
J'Vonne Hadley (11.9)
KJ Simpson (19.9)
Tristan da Silva (16.2)
Eddie Lampkin (10.0)

Oregon:
Jackson Shelstad (12.3 ppg)
Jermaine Couisnard (15.5)
Kwame Evans Jr (7.9)
Jadrian Tracey (8.2)
N'Faly Dante (14.9)
