CU’s third straight win improved the Buffs to 19-5 overall — the best start in CU history after 24 games — and 8-3 in Pac-12 play, one game ahead of Oregon after the Ducks’ loss at Oregon State on Saturday. Colorado plays at Oregon on Thursday.
Stanford dropped to 16-7, 5-5.
Colorado trailed 33-22 at the half and by 16 early in the second half, but outscored Stanford 59-41 after intermission for the win in front of 10,930. It was the second sellout of the season and the largest Events Center crowd since a February 2016 win over Arizona.
