Denver Post Article Today

First of all, go Bears! Let's get some revenge at Davis tonight.

Now on to today's biased, ineptly written Denver Post article:
"The Top 10 must-watch college basketball games of the season for Colorado schools".
http://www.denverpost.com/2017/11/29/college-basketball-colorado-buffs-colorado-state-rams-deondre-ayton/

The author begins by mentioning all FIVE Colorado teams in D1: "among Colorado, Colorado State, Air Force, DU and Northern Colorado there are more than 100 Division I games to watch."

But then in the next sentence he announces he will analyze "all FOUR schedules" of these FIVE teams, to find the top 10 must-see games. Northern Colorado's already out of the running apparently.

These supposedly are the "prime matchups" of D1 Colorado teams:

Air Force vs. Army
Colorado vs. Iowa
Air Force at Denver
Colorado State at Arkansas ?????
Southern California at Colorado
Colorado State at Oregon
Colorado at Xavier
Wyoming at Colorado State
Arizona at Colorado
Colorado at Colorado State

Denver @ Northern Colorado would seem like an obvious choice, especially when the author makes a point of mentioning Northern Colorado in the opening sentence of the article. Even if the author did not bother to review UNC's schedule, this game would still appear on DU's schedule.

It strongly appears the author only looked at the schedules of CU, CSU, and AF (where he saw the AF/DU game) in compiling this bogus list. I don't know about you guys, but I can barely contain my excitement for CSU at Arkansas, and my disgust at the Post's shoddy, biased "journalism".
 
Thanks for posting the article.
I agree, missing the UNC - DU game was a huge oversight since we should be recruiting at a similar level.
