How low we have sunk

Nice win though. Who would figure the basketball team would get their first Pac-12 win before the football team.

In other news the women’s basketball team blew another first half lead. I can guess another out of gas in the second half explanation coming from Leverts.

Huh? First Pac-12 win before the football team?

Go Cuse. Go Utes. Go Kings (hockey version). Go Panthers (hockey version). Go Marlins. Go Dodgers. I despise the NFL and NBA, so don't bore me.

Oh....

Not the first thing I thought about.

Go Cuse. Go Utes. Go Kings (hockey version). Go Panthers (hockey version). Go Marlins. Go Dodgers. I despise the NFL and NBA, so don't bore me.

Considering the order of the football schedule

If we had played OSU or Wazzu first, I think the football wins would have come much sooner.

If anyone found my snowboarding gloves after storming the field following the 2004 TDS game, I want them back!

wish I could have seen it!

If anyone has any video/highlight links I’d like them

I went to the game against Seattle

and for the first half, I was thinking, wow, we actually don’t look that terrible. If we play like this for a whole game, we might win! And now we did!

I think Coach K

needs to bawl out the team more often.

I didn't know Jazzy followed Utah Basketball.

And in other news, Syracuse is still #1.

Go Cuse. Go Utes. Go Kings (hockey version). Go Panthers (hockey version). Go Marlins. Go Dodgers. I despise the NFL and NBA, so don't bore me.

yea

I wondered that after the no mention of the 73-33 CU loss…

by choderboat on Jan 6, 2012 12:53 AM MST up reply actions  

No need to discuss losses...

We just pretend they don’t exist. Plus, it was the night of the Sun Bowl. So…

by JazzyUte on Jan 6, 2012 1:34 AM MST up reply actions  

Checked in on the the game late...

to see just how bad it was. The Utes had just taken the lead in overtime…
I almost spilled my beer!

Well...

that’s one more conference win than I thought we’d have this year.

Overachievers!

Awesome and unexpected win

Dijon Farr is starting to become a favorite player of mine

by PlannerUte on Jan 5, 2012 11:04 PM MST reply actions  

Washburn also looked good the 1st half.

He kind of disappeared the second half, but I was impressed with his play.
Farr was great though. And even though Jiggy was hard to watch at times, he pulled through in the end and came up with some clutch plays.

Pac-12 really is wide open.

Correct me if I’m wrong on this, but there have been 16 conference games played, only two road wins. Oregon @ WSU and Co @ Utah.

I predict the conference title will be won with a 10-8 record. Not even kidding. Stanford, Cal, Arizona, and my Huskies all lost. Win all home games and get like 2 road wins and the conference is yours.

Brought back memories of '06...

When you guys rolled into SLC undefeated and a bad Utah team walked to victory.

Tough game for you guys. Great game for us. We probably won’t win another – maybe one more – the remainder of the year, but to get our fourth victory was huge. We’re not going to make history as the worst Big Six team in college basketball history.

by JazzyUte on Jan 5, 2012 11:55 PM MST up reply actions  

I don't know.

We’re epically bad on the road this year. I have zero confidence beating anybody away from Hec Ed. And ASU and USC are pretty darn bad, somebody had to suck more in that game.

Well Craig it is all love back to you

I was worried the big story would be that our first P12 win would come Jan 2013.

Now there is no story about waiting.

UDub vs Utah

The game against the Huskies will be televised on Root Sports at 11:00 am PST.

Go Utah!

by Utah-UCLA alum on Jan 6, 2012 9:02 AM MST reply actions  

yes!

very excited to hear! they face a second half deficit and battled back to win. Comrade and I were discussing who gets cut last night. I am thinking Odunsi and Matthews wont come back, along with Dawson.

Love the Jazz, Utes, and BoSox.

odunsi and matthews will come back. They both have potential and would be red shirting probably at every other program. Matthews is 20 pounds overweight and had a broken foot, to where he couldnt play at all. He just isn’t ready right now.

Yes, we needed that
