Spencer Dinwiddie scored 15 points and Austin Dufault added 13 for Colorado (5-3), which led by 15 at halftime and extended their win streak against non-conference opponents to 27.

Colorado, which shot less than 60 percent from the free throw line in each of its previous three games, shot 27-of-32 (84.4 percent) against the Bulldogs.
