One sign of a good team is being able to win, even when not playing very well.

UF, fresh off of its 3-1(25-22, 25-20, 22-25, 25-18) win over Colorado Thursday night, will now make the trip to Fort Collins, Colo. where they will take on No.21 Colorado State Saturday. The Rams come into the game riding a 17 match home winning streak. They were undefeated at home last season. The Rams are led by senior middle blocker Makena Barnes, who is averaging 13.4 kills for her last five matches.
