Rick Majerus' sweater is retired as Utah upsets Colorado.

I'm glad I am not here discussing one of the worst losses in program history. Instead, we can celebrate one of the better (the best?) wins of the season ... even if Utah blew a 20-point lead and nearly lost at home on a day where they were honoring the legendary Rick Majerus by retiring his sweater.

Fortunately, Majerus' spirit didn't allow that to happen because the Utes staved off a furious Colorado rally to hang on for the 58-55 win.

So, an ugly victory that was nearly a loss - but in an ugly season, I'll take it. Plus, Colorado is no slouch, so, beating them is at least worth some hoopla.

Here's to this win turning into something...
