MBA in Colorado: University of Denver or University of Col.?

I currently live and work in the Denver area. I am considering a part-time MBA program for Fall 09 (at either the University of Denver or the University of Colorado).
I have heard from others that DU has a good reputation in business, but I'm not sure if that is really the case. The part-time program seems to rank well in the BusinessWeek rankings (beating Chicago for 6th). Is it worth the extra money to get an MBA from DU? Is the reputation that much stronger than an MBA degree from another school (like CU)?
The main advantage of the University of Colorado is that it is a lot cheaper than DU. My employer will only cover $10k a year. With that I can pay for my degree at CU without having to worry about taking on additional debt. But I'm not sure about the reputation of the business program. It doesn't seem to show in any of the rankings. Any thoughts?
