We followed the #1 ranked Colorado Buffaloes as they prepared to defend their NCAA cross country title.

The current Colorado Buffaloes team has been labeled as the best in school history. Fresh off last year's NCAA title, the 2014 team has history in front of them if they can go back-to-back this Saturday in Terre Haute. Doing so would make them the first Colorado team to win consecutive national titles. When we followed this team at the beginning of the season, they weren't buying into the whole "best team ever" talk, or allowing their focus to shift beyond the day's work. After all, it's harder to defend a title than it is to win one. While the Buffaloes will be heavily favored in Terre Haute, don't expect them to rest on their laurels. For someone like Jake Hurysz, who missed last season with injury, all the matters is this year, his last shot to be a part of a national championship.
