The Colorado Buffaloes are in California, preparing to take on the San Francisco Dons in the Acrisure Holiday Classic in Palm Desert.

Colorado enters the matchup 5-0 on the season, a start the Buffs have not had since the 2019-20 season. CU has been getting it done on offense, leading the Big 12 Conference in scoring, field goal percentage, and assist-to-turnover ratio. Entering Thursday’s contest, the Buffaloes are averaging 94.4 points per game, good for No. 13 in the nation.

San Francisco has also had a successful start to the season, sitting at 5-1 and winning its last four games, including a 77-65 win over Minnesota. The Dons are one of the better 3-point shooting teams in college basketball, averaging 10.5 3-pointers per game and hitting just over 40% from behind the arc. USF sits at No. 67 in KenPom, twenty spots ahead of Colorado.

As we count down the hours until this turkey day tipoff from Acrisure Arena in Palm Desert, California, here is how to watch the action.
