The Colorado Buffaloes hosted the USC Trojans on Thursday night in an important game for both programs. The Trojans are right in the bubble conversation while Colorado is getting close to the wrong side of .500 and playing itself off of a postseason berth altogether.
Unfortunately for CU, the Trojans walked out of Boulder with another strong win, beating the Buffs by a score of 84-65. Five USC players finished with double figures and only two Buffs did that. KJ Simpson scored 18 points and Luke O’Brien added 12 points in the loss.
