This is the kind of win Utah needed. Okay, maybe it doesn't fix all their problems. However, it was a winnable game against a bad team and recently, that has slipped the Utes up. Not tonight. In fact, Utah dominated from pretty much start to finish and cruised to the 22-point victory.

What does it ultimately mean? Hard to say. You need to follow these wins up with bigger wins over better teams and create some sustainability and consistency. Maybe then we can get the ball rolling and things will turn around in conference play. And certainly looking at the prospects of the Mountain West this season, they'll need it. Because it looks damn tough.

Next up is a Saturday showdown with LSU on the road. Could be a tough one. Luckily they have another win under their belt, though.
