Men’s basketball: CU Buffs look to rebound at home, yet must fix road woes

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 10:51:11 GMT

It was a stretch of about three and a half minutes, spread over one short interval and then an even shorter one, that doomed the Colorado Buffaloes at Colorado State.However, after losing state bragging rights in Fort Collins on Wednesday night, the Buffaloes will be less concerned about reviewing the minutes that got away than finding a big-picture solution to some early road woes.The 88-83 defeat suffered by the CU men’s basketball team at 20th-ranked Colorado State occurred in the Buffaloes’ only true road game of the nonconference schedule, and the three games in which the Buffs have struggled the most so far during the still-young season have happened away from the CU Events Center.The Buffs have overwhelmed the competition during four home wins. But their other three games — the CSU loss, plus games against Richmond and Florida State at the Sunshine Slam — have produced CU’s three worst 3-point games and both of the Buffs’ losses.“Challenge their mental toughness. Because that...

49ers’ McCaffrey is simply ‘best in world at what he does’

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 10:51:11 GMT

SANTA CLARA — Christian McCaffrey’s lofty job title each week this season has been “NFL leading rusher.”He has a healthy disdain, however, for being pigeonholed into a specific role.Before he made McCaffrey’s 49ers debut last year against Kansas City, his father, Ed, was on the sideline pregame recalling how his son objected being labeled a “running back” or a “receiver,” that he simply wanted to be seen as an all-encompassing football player when he began playing as a kid.Reminded Thursday that some projected him as an “NFL slot receiver” coming out of Stanford, McCaffrey bristled at that memory. He also confirmed having a conversation with coach Kyle Shanahan, upon last year’s trade from Carolina, insisting he can handle a full-time load at running back.“That’s probably part of my insecurities and competitiveness. I want to be a complete back, and I think this dates back to when I was in middle school an...
