I'll be honest, I went into this game expecting a loss. When Utah jumped out to a 7-0 lead, I thought no way...could it be? and when the Utes went up 14-0, I thought, oh my god...oh my god...oh my god... When they went up 21-10, let's just say I started to believe.

Unfortunately, when you've got absolutely no offense ... you're not going to win. No matter how much heart you throw into it ... no matter how much energy you've got to give, with zero offense, you're pretty much doomed to defeat.

So, while I'm so glad Utah showed up tonight and put in a valiant effort, the fact this game was there for the taking in the fourth quarter made the loss that much more unbearable. No moral victories ... this one hurt.
