Jan. 6, 2007, Texas vs. Colorado
It took 14 games for Durant to reach the 30-point mark in college. Reaching that mark isn't an easy feat, especially if the competition is tight. He went toe-to-toe against Colorado's Richard Roby, who didn't back down and had a 30-point game of his own.
However, Durant proved too much to be a problem for Colorado. He finished the game with 37 points and 16 rebounds to lead the Longhorns to a 102-78 win. The game also happened to be his first conference game, even making it more memorable.

He made five threes against Colorado, and that was enough proof that no one could guard the star forward.
