The Colorado Buffaloes will host UCLA at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 3 for a game to be nationally televised on FS1.

The Colorado Buffaloes found themselves ranked in the nation's top 25 on Sunday, the first time the Buffs have cracked the top 25 since early November 2005.

For most students, Family Weekend at the University of Colorado will involve some variation of a similar pattern: breakfast at one of their favorite local hangouts, a sightseeing drive, then a trip to Folsom Field in time for Saturday’s 12:30 Buffs game against visiting Oregon State. But that’s not how CU senior Alex Kelley’s day will go.

Funded by a grant from the Pac-12 Conference, CU Boulder's Public Health Program, the Integrative Physiology Department, Sports Medicine, Psychology and Neuroscience and others will collaborate, examining such aspects as how quickly student-athletes acclimate to Boulder's altitude and how healthy their sleep patterns are, for example.

It's been more than a week now since two of their runners, former Colorado NCAA champions and All-Americans Emma Coburn and Jenny Simpson, claimed Olympic bronze medals. The glow has by no means worn off.

Former Colorado star Jenny Simpson became the second Buff in two days to claim an Olympic bronze medal, putting on a terrific finishing kick over the last 200 meters Tuesday night to finish third in the 1,500-meter final. Simpson, who finished in 4 minutes, 10.53 seconds, is the first American...
