After falling at Arizona on Thursday, the Colorado Buffaloes desperately needed to split their road swing.
And they did just that, beating Arizona St., 75-57, on Saturday night in Tempe.
The Buffs held a 37-24 lead at halftime and then proceeded to put together a terrific second half.
They scored 38 points and hit 6-of-13 three-point shots.
Defensively, the Buffs held the Sun Devils to 23 points after intermission and ASU only shot 31% from the floor (9-29) and was just 2-for-10 from beyond the arc.
Four CU starters scored in double figures. Jabari Walker had 18 points and 12 rebounds, Keeshawn Barthelemy had 16 points, and Evan Battey and Tristan da Silva each scored 11.
The Buffs are 12-4, 4-2 in the Pac-12. Arizona St. falls to 5-9, 1-3 in conference.
Colorado hosts USC on Thursday, January 20. Coverage starts at 5 p.m. MST on KOA 850 AM and 94.1 FM and streaming at www.KOAColorado.com/listen.
