Colorado

Starting Five: David Harrison, Alec Burks, Andre Roberson, Spencer Dinwiddie, Richard Roby

Bench: Josh Scott, George King, Derrick White, Chris Copeland, Askia Booker, Cory Higgins, Michel Morandais, Stephane Pelle

MVP: Roby’s scoring prowess (he’s the Buffaloes all-time leading scorer) edges Roberson gritty game.

Colorado does not have a deep squad, but the first six or seven guys would battle hard with just about any other team here.

Oregon

Starting Five: Luke Ridnour, Luke Jackson, Aaron Brooks, Joseph Young, Dillon Brooks

Bench: Fred Jones, Jordan Bell, Devoe Joseph, E.J. Singler, Elgin Cook, Maarty Leunen, Joevan Catron, Payton Pritchard, Tyler Dorsey, Chris Boucher, Bryce Taylor

MVP: It was very close between Ridnour and Brooks who have similar resumes, but I’m taking Brooks for his defensive abilities and postseason success.

Brooks has a small-ball center surrounded by those four starting guards will make for an interesting viewing experience. The bench has some legit depth as well.
