To prepare for Colorado, we've got to really prepare for them and really keep focused. Right now we're 2-0, so we've got a lot of distractions. Everybody's talking about us being good and all that. I'm happy that people are saying that about us, but we've got to keep on staying together and don't get too distracted and don't make this get above our head. Keep fighting and keep playing the way we've been playing.
