No. 7 UCLA runs away from CU Buffs down the stretch
Thwarted once again by their own turnovers, CU was dominated by the Bruins over the final 10 minutes, as UCLA handed the Buffs a 68-54 defeat in a Pac-12 Conference battle at Pauley Pavilion. It was UCLA’s 13th consecutive victory and its sixth in the past seven games against Colorado. It was CU’s 16th consecutive loss against a ranked foe in true road games.
It marked the first time in seven years the Buffs have committed at least 20 turnovers in consecutive games. The Buffs led throughout an almost 20-minute stretch from late in the first half until the midway point of the second half, taking a nine-point lead on a 3-point play from KJ Simpson with 10 minutes, 21 seconds remaining. Yet CU only connected on one more field goal the rest of the way, and that didn’t arrive until more than nine minutes later after the Bruins asserted control.
UCLA entered the game as the Pac-12’s top 3-point shooting team but missed its first 15 attempts from long range. Yet the Bruins recovered when it mattered, going 4-for-4 down the stretch. The Bruins outrebounded CU 22-16 in the second half.“When we got our defense set, I thought it was pretty dang good,” Boyle said. “I thought we battled and competed. But early in the second half it was evident they wanted to more than we did on the glass. They just beasted us.
