Tim Brant (play-by-play), Ed Cunningham (analysis) and Samantha Ryan (sidelines) will be in Boulder to call the action… This is UCLA’s first visit to Boulder since 1984, as the Buffs wore a darker blue uni that season with a borderless, light yellow number… CU’s official website, www.CUBuffs.com, features game day updates and live stats for all games, home and road… There are around 6,000 tickets left for the Sept.
