URGENT UPDATE: The Colorado Buffaloes women’s basketball team is gearing up for a crucial matchup against the Wyoming Cowgirls this Sunday, December 3, 2025, at the CU Events Center in Boulder, with tip-off set for 1 p.m.
After a rollercoaster start to the season, the Buffs, holding a record of 6-3, are eager to bounce back from recent setbacks. Head Coach JR Payne expressed her confidence in the team, noting their resilience amidst challenges. “Nobody was pouting or pointing fingers after our losses, which is very mature,” Payne stated, emphasizing the team’s commitment to improvement.
The Buffs began strong with a 5-1 record but faced adversity with back-to-back losses, including a surprising 71-70 defeat against Montana State. However, they regained momentum with a decisive 66-47 victory over Charleston earlier this week.
Payne praised the team’s work ethic, stating, “We’ve had back-to-back really good practices.” This preparation will be essential as they face a tough Wyoming squad, which comes into the game with a 3-4 record and momentum after winning two consecutive games against Chadron State and South Dakota.
Despite dominating the historical series with a 39-11 record against Wyoming, Payne cautioned that the Cowgirls are well-coached and possess a unique offensive system. “They don’t back down or wilt,” she remarked, highlighting the toughness of their recruits.
The Buffs have excelled defensively, holding seven of their nine opponents to 60 points or less. This will be tested against a Wyoming team averaging 56.3 points per game. The Buffs aim to maintain their home advantage, holding a 4-1 record at the CU Events Center this season.
