Probably a bit of a hangover from Sunday + hard to get up for Yale.

So CU, with an RPI of 104 beats Yale with an RPI of 259 78-71. I would say they have a lot of work to do for the Big 12.


CU still playing starters at the end.

Yale out rebounded CU which will not work against Big 12 teams.

On the good news front, both freshmen Megan Malcolm-Peck and Chucky Jeffery recovered well from the Virginia game. Each scored 19 points, with Jeffery going 7-7 from the field while also grabbing 7 rebounds, stealing the ball 5 times and dishing out 9 assists, blocking 2 shots, but she also was credited with 5 turnovers.

MMP was 4-4 from behind the arc.

Here's a piece from the Longmont Times-Call on the Yale game:

“We walk away from non-conference 10-3. I’m proud of them. I’m proud of their commitment, of what they’ve done over the summer.”

CU lost two of their three games on the road. I hope they can do better than 11th in the Big 12, but I honestly don't think they will.

I actually like the Longmont paper's articles better than the Boulder paper's articles most of the time.

There was an interesting piece in the Denver Post about Chucky Jeffrey yesterday: http://www.denverpost.com/colleges/ci_14116746

Nice article. Thanks for sharing, BeBe.

Chucky is definitely the real deal.
