Welcome to the Ralphie Report as the Colorado Buffaloes get ready to take on the Oregon State Beavers as part of the Big 12/Pac-10 Hardwood Challenge in Corvallis, Oregon. The Buffaloes hope to continue the Big 12 dominance in the series as the conference holds an early 4-0 lead over the Pac-10, including a thrilling upset victory by Texas Tech over the #10 Washington Huskies. A solid road win here would be the Buffaloes third victory in a row and is a must have if the Buffs hope to continue to carry momentum into the conference schedule.
