Welcome to the Ralphie Report as the Colorado Buffaloes prepare to take on the Arizona Wildcats in Boulder, Colorado. The Buffs got back on the winning track with a 69-54 win over Arizona State on Thursday night and now they hope to stay in the top 4 in conference play with a win over an Arizona team that will be missing Solomon Hill due to a flagrant foul given during the Wildcat win over Utah. Go Buffs!

Welcome to ANIMAL STYLE DAY
great atmosphere w/ the sold out crowd, recruits in the building. Arizona’s leading scorer (only 11.7 ppg) is out for being a jerk. Let’s do this thing
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
LOL, for being a jerk, that's a good reason
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
dear god, Oregon's court is absolutely horrible
I liked it in concept, but looking at it makes it look like the court has a thinning hairline. Or something that makes sense.
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Definitely fugly
highlandsbuff - January 21, 2012 via Android app
it looks like urine that requires a doctor's attention
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Yeah, it gives me a headache looking at it
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
Time to kill
Lot of Arizona fans here. They’re dumb.
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
Really looking for a link.
Any help would be great.
MinnesotaBuff1 - January 21, 2012
Dang, I forgot to bet on Utah
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
any luck on the shirts?
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Still trying to find a designer to help
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
at the very least
thanks for helping me waste a Friday afternoon. Work is overrated
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
what was the line on that?
they destroyed ASU!
nebraskasux - January 22, 2012
Utah -4 I think
Jon Woods - January 22, 2012
Oregon/ Ucla still has 5 minutes left. 58-53 Oregon
You’d better switch, Root Sports
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Let's go Buffs!
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
National Animal Style Day!
Lets go Buffaloes!
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Where'd you get that line Jon? (or is it a mistake)
cause I feel pretty awesome getting them -1.5 if that’s legit!
nebraskasux - January 21, 2012
betus.com has us @ -2
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
I think he copied over the line from ASU
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
oh, yeah...
hey Phil, find me a stream!! haha, it’s not on firstrow. otherwise I gotta watch on TV in the other room and cant chat!
nebraskasux - January 21, 2012
buy a lap top
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
That was yesterday when I wrote the post. Didn’t have a chance I switch it.
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
Wildcat announcer? in Boulder?
Boooo
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
agreed
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
goddamn it Root- SWITCH THE GAME
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
this last minute is going to take 10
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Solomon Hill announced as starting
…so that didn’t work
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
yeah, what happened there?
my own fault for not researching it more but that was the main reason I jumped on this game so fast
nebraskasux - January 22, 2012
oh Roberson, you've got to box out
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
where are you watching it?
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
fcs central
I have att, which sucks, but occasionally gets lots of sports channels
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
3-2 CU early
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Carlon Brown is hungry today. Good news
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Where would we be w/o him?
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Very, VERY good question
and one I’m glad we don’t have to answer
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Lots of Arizona fans there
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
Our guards are going to have to up their Defensive game today
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Tommlinson, shoot the dame ball
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
No ability to get it inside earLy
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
Is this game online anywhere
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
this is killing me
HURRY UP OREGON
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
No missing much...
AZ looks big on the offensive side.
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
AZ is big and agressive on both sides.
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
Tad is pissed!
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Whatever happened to the days when you were allowed to swivel on your swivel foot?
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
FINALLY
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
NOT THE ZONE?!?
Don’t the Buffs know that Zona can shoot the 3? Why go to the Zone so early?
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
At least SHT wasn't a black hole that time touching the ball
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Arizona playing with lots more energy
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
Gotta say- I'm really coming around on Tomlinson
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
What?
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
because that
He’s been really savvy lately. Not great, but he’s at least playing like a senior
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
OK, he has been playing better
but he passes up wide open shots all of the time, his ball handling is questionable and he makes dumb passes. That said, I hope he keeps getting better b/c we need him
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
not saying he's great
But I no longer think he’s a liability
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Also, I think pulling Roberson early was a good call
He’s back in now, though. Good news. Hopefully that helps him get his head in the game
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Who's that 6' 10" women playing for zona
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
Tomlinson playing like a boss
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
And 1 for Tomlinson!
Hopefully Nate getting aggressive helps get other guys excited
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Nice
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
Ski for 3!!!!
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Long three
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
Downtown
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
TIE GAME BITCHES
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
a-a-a-skia (Chia Pet jingle)
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
The Bench already coming up big in this game
Ski and SHT helped get us back into the game
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Damn, tough
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
oh Buffaloes
That is not how you play Defense
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
All of our shots are heavily contested, theirs are not
Too easy for them to pass it in down low.
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
Yep, we've got to step up the D
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
We've defintely not been sharp on Defense
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
A-A-A-SKIA
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Good job Buffs!
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Chen may not make the contested one
But he makes the easy one!!!
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
with his right hand
he’s a lefty
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Giving them a little Chen-music?
Eh? EH?
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
no. Go sit in the corner. You're on timeout
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Already there
I got off the couch before I even clicked post
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Come one play in control
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
Breathe deep Zona
It’s going to be a long day
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Alright, who are the assholes in that section that sold their tickets
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Everybody has their price...
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
That Perry is a tough offensive rebounder
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
Good, get them in foul trouble
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
OK, these announcers are pissing me off
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
I've got Goodman and Ceal
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Oh I have the Zona guys
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Me too, they suck
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Walk!
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
nice interior D
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
WTF- they call that and not 33
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
I'm so confused...I thought you had to move your feet to travel?
That’s twice they’ve forgotten which foot was the pivot foot
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
that's terrible, Adams
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
wow, Ski- that was, um, maybe a little long of a look
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Damn, thought that was a sure three
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
I know it's Animal Style day
But Roberson has yet to snag a board
Lets hope he gets aggressive soon
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
also no points, 1 TO and 2 fouls
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
I think he has one board?
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
nope. Fumbled one out of bounds
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Boys showed up today
Keep pushing the ball
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Nice move Tommy
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
That was a funky move by Tomlinson to draw that foul
I liked it!
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Dinwiddie was over 3.0 GPA
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
for those w/ local announcers
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Sean Miller has an 8 dollar haircut
Looks like a used car salesman
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
of course, Chen has a zero dollar hiarcut
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
It's the Eddie Najera
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
haha. It's exactly that
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Maybe my most favorite reference we've ever made on this blog!
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Chen!
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
Ouch
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
Easssssy there Chen
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
Damn I thought he dislocated his shoulder
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
Ouch, rough landing, but more importantly, why did he jump?
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
We're losing too many guys down deep
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
And 1
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
The Mayor!!!
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Ceal talking about middle penetration is getting me all hot
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Wow Zona Announcer
Said UA’s offense is ‘like fine jewelry" Shut the f’up
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Really, what dumb asses
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
utterly useless and easily lost?
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
We have REALLY improved at the line
let’s get another shot at CSU
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Dinwiddie from WAY Downtown!!!
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
SPENWIDDIE
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Dinwiddie from Broomfield...
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
that's not an NBA 3. That's a Rock & Jock 4
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Ha!
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
you are obviously about as old as me
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
"Spot up on that penetration" Ceal
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
Offensive Foul!!!
Finally calling that illegal screen
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Oh snap!
Carlon Brown wanted to rejoin the party!
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
Fire!
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
GOD DAMN YOU SH-T
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
FnA, finish that play
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
Also, these announcers are so preposterously pro-Arizona
This is really, really hard to listen to.
DavidAGerhardt - January 21, 2012
yes, it's ridiculous
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Agreed. And Dufault isn't 6'11" and they keep saying he is.
Parker_Baruh - January 21, 2012
AZ getting penatration way too easy...
Like Brad Pitt at a drunken sorority party.
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
That was pretty good
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
Where is Roberson?
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
bench. fouls
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
How many fouls?
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
2
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Getting penetrated
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
Geez, terrible D by Brown
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
SOB
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
Close call
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
nice play by Carlon
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Thank you
def offensive
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
or maybe not
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
in real time, it looked blatantly offensive
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Freaking box out guys!
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
SHT is still a work in progress
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
at this point, you're giving too much credit
to “work” and “progress”
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
he's definitely "in"
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Yes
I’m not sure what to think about him. He allowed that guy to fly right over him for the rebound and didn’t do shit.
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
and how can a guy who's 6'10" be so incompetent finishing around the rim?
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
OK get a defensive stop here
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
Need to push the pace next half
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
I’ve found the CEC beers!!
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
were they in your pocket?
that’s usually where I found them
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Lucky to be within 4...
With Roberson struggling. 0 points, 0 rebounds, 2 fouls
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
Burks in Jazz jersey - I just threw up in my mouth a little bit
Broncoman - January 21, 2012
Why is Chip doing the River Dance??? SMH
In my day, Chip would be over there doing a beer bong. Kids these days??!!
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
I hate Chip
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Yeah , i ust lost what little respect i had.
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
if Jesse Perry was white, he'd fit right in on Pearl Street
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
FINALLY- a good play by Roberson
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Nate!
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Dufault was woofing, too
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
like it! fired up!
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Big ups for Levi Knutson!
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
WALK
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
gotta get these FTs dialed in
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Charity stripe is not our friend tonight.
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
if we lose, that's why
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Agree
Unforgivable.
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
These AZ announcers.....trying to be nice......
They suck balls
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Lot of the UA fans here are pretty douche
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
BROTHER
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Oh I’ve been giving him all sorts of talk. He’s scared.
They just kicked two of em out of our section
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
I dislike UA fans
because I associate them w/ ASU fans, who are the collar poppingest bros I’ve ever seen
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
huge
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Roberson didn't even go up for that board
that’s one he usually snatches away from Brown.
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
ugh. Dre has been... miserable tonight
looks passive and completely lost
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Missed dunk, missed layup
this needs to stop
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Zona only has one time out left?
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
correct
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
The students going Big Head Tad is the best thing
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
if they knew who Big Head Todd was
THAT would be the best thing… ever
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Theres a name i didn't think most people here remembered
Some of you guys are old too.
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
his brother, Nick Mohr, played basketball for CU
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Did not know that.... When?
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
late 90's
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
maybe mid 90's- 95-98 ish
not 100% sure
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Hmm. Yeah i had classes with Todd.
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
ha. I hooped against Nick in some summer leagues/ playground ball
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
in high school
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Tunks can't even dunk with no one within 15 feet of him
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Did you see his reaction on that last shot?
No? Because he didn’t react at all….
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Dre is struggling. Keep working, kid
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Is he hurt/sick?
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
not that I know
But when he struggles, he gets too much in his own head. That’s what it looks like to me.
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Stanford about to go 0-2 on Wash trip
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
This conference is a mess
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
we're a big pile of fried mush
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Also, Cal and WSU tied up
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
Terrible call
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Yep
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
Carlon is feeling it. Feed that man
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Time out
Get the boards fellas
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Love that pump up video!! It’s loud in here again
Jon Woods - January 21, 2012 via iPhone app
Carlon is making some Kobe shots
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
A-A-A-SKIA
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Dunk that shit
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
HIT. FREETHROWS
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
GOD DAMN YOU TUNKS
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
AAAAAARRRRRGGGG. SHT!
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
Unreal
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Roberson is lost
TAKE THAT SHOT
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
The russian...
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
fouls? what?
My TV feed has gone to hell. It’s a widescreen feed and I don’t have a widescreen TV
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Nice
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
AUSTIN DUFAULT
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Misses the free throw
BuffnBigD - January 21, 2012
we have got to knock down FTs
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
gotta switch to the AZ feed
Rocky Mountain feed won’t show me the PG with the ball
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
You'll love these announcers
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
I think I got RM back
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
"Coors Activity Center"
yep, these are Arizona announcers
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
what in the hell? Dre was standing straight up
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Cal lost
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
CARLON FUCKING BROWN
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
Big time shot!
HBbuff - January 21, 2012
COLORADO BUFFALOES
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
haha. Tad Boyle is feeling it!
Phil Fraser - January 21, 2012
that was perfect defense on the last possession for the Buffs.
Parker_Baruh - January 21, 2012
Great win
We didn’t play that well but we found a way to win the game. Good to protect the home court and the conference championship is wide open
CleBUFFS - January 21, 2012
Agreed. Roberson didn't play well at all.....
but the rest of team stepped up and played pretty well. And only 6 turnovers…..
The two losses by Cal and Stanford today really have the conference race bunched up.
