Colorado coach Tad Boyle shows off his dance moves after March Madness upset vs. Florida

Colorado head coach Tad Boyle was seen showing off his groovy dance moves after the Buffaloes were architects of an upset over the Florida Gators in the first round of this year’s NCAA Tournament. 

The 61-year-old Boyle, who’s been in charge of Colorado since 2010, was surrounded by his players while at the center of the team’s celebrations, following its 102-100 win in Indianapolis on Friday night.

‘That’s what I’m talking about,’ Boyle shouted, once he entered the locker room at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, while raising his arms in the air. 

Then, for the next 10 seconds, Boyle boogied while the Buffaloes busted out dance moves around him in the shape of a circle, as he clapped and pulled a fist pump at the end of insider footage shared on X shortly after Colorado’s victory. 

The Buffaloes are making their second March Madness appearance since 2012 this year. They defeated Georgetown in 2021 and will now go onto play No. 2 Marquette on Sunday for a spot in the Sweet Sixteen.

Colorado has never appeared in the second weekend of the tournament since the 64-team format was introduced in 1985.  

The Buffs (26-10) and Gators (24-12) produced the most impressive offensive game so far in this year’s March Madness on Friday, showing no signs of fatigue after both played in conference title games.

Colorado beat Boise State in the First Four on Wednesday, then extended its single-season school record for wins.

‘I thought to myself at halftime, if we don’t start guarding better … we’ve got to score 100 to win tonight,’ Boyle said in his first-round postgame comments. ‘And we needed 102. Actually we only needed 101, but we got 102.’ 

The Buffs’ astonishing offensive totals: 34 of 54 (63 percent) from the field, 6 of 10 on 3-pointers and 28 of 33 (84.8 percent) on free throws. The Gators made five more 3s (11 of 25) and shot 51.5 percent overall (35 of 68) to keep pace.
