What a differer.ee a day makes.
After its first swing through the Big Eight
conference schedule, the Colorado men's
basketball team, Nebraska's opponent tonight
in Boulder, was 1-6 and facing 16-6 Iowa State.
But last Wednesday night in Boulder the fortunes
of the Buffaloes may have turned with a two
point win against the Cyclones.
"I think the win over Iowa State has given us a
lot of things," Colorado Coach Tom Apke said.
"We'd been trying to gst out of our slump sad
we'd been playing well, but we hadn't been
rewarded with a win. The victory renewed
everybody's confidence. It's given the team a real
lift.". - '
Colorado played well in a two-point less to
Kansas Jan. 25 and in a read loss to Missouri Feb.

at finishing in the upper division of the Big
Eight.
"That's been our goal all along," Apke said.
"Every game becomes a critical one for us at this
point." .
Colorado held Nebraska's Dave Hcppen to 2D
points in Nehr&ka's 83-67 win last month. Apke
..said it was important for the Buffaloes to hold
Hcppen "in the 20s."
"We can't let him have a career against us,"
Apke said. MI thought we did a pretty good job
against him in the first half of the last game. ' Nebraska will start the same lines? it has the
