In their last game on March 18th against the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders, the Buffaloes showcased a dominant performance with an impressive 82-60 victory. Their offensive prowess was on full display as they shot 48 percent from the field and an exceptional 48 percent from beyond the arc. With a total of 43 rebounds and a higher assist-to-turnover ratio than their opponents, it's clear that teamwork and ball movement are among their strengths.


The defense also stood tall with six blocks and five steals, contributing significantly to their fast break points. This kind of all-around team effort is exactly what will be required when they step into Durham.


On the other hand, Duke cannot be underestimated. They will have home-court advantage and undoubtedly come prepared for a competitive matchup. However, looking at Colorado's recent games provides insight into how this contest might unfold.


Despite suffering a loss on March 4th against Washington State Cougars with a score of 49-61 in which they struggled offensively shooting only 37 percent from the field and making just four out of eighteen three-point attempts; it was an anomaly compared to their usual high-scoring affairs.


It is worth noting that even in defeat, COLO managed to rack up more steals than WSU indicating that defensively they can hold their own even when shots aren't falling. This resilience could prove crucial against DUKE who will look to capitalize on any sign of weakness.


The key for COLO lies in maintaining their shooting efficiency while tightening up ball security as turnovers could prove costly especially away from home. If they can replicate or improve upon their performance from March 18th rather than March 4th then fans may well witness another victory for Colorado.
