Colorado Rebounding with Win Over Pepperdine; Miami Set to be Tough Opponent

Colorado bounced back from two losses against its toughest opponents this season (Florida State and Colorado State) with a routing of Pepperdine. Miami is a formidable opponent, boasting a trio of wins (UCF, Georgia, and Kansas State) potentially qualifying as Quad I victories. The Hurricanes’ lone loss was to Kentucky at the Rupp Arena. With an offensive edge and slightly above average defense, they possess the experience to close out tight games. This contest is likely to be won by Miami.
