Ute Championship: # 1998 versus # 1997
Not a surprise these two teams made the championship vote. The last round was pretty close between 1997 and 1944, however, '97 pulled away late to advance to the final round. 1998 has yet to face a tough test throughout and I wouldn't be surprised if they breezed through to the...
Ute Final Four: #2 1997 versus #3 1944
Okay. Final round of the Final Four. Who advances to the championship? Also, don't forget to vote in the 1/4 match.
Ute Final Four: #1 1998 versus #4 1966
All right! Final Four time, baby! Who's the best team in Utah basketball history? I've pretty much laid the case out for all four squads, so I won't go into that again. That means all that's left is the voting and I'll throw up both threads to get to the championship game faster. Have at it...
Ute Madness: #4 1966 versus #5 1961
Jack Gardner led Utah to two Final Fours It's Gardner versus Gardner! Oh my. These two teams aren't that much different. Both made the Final Four and both failed to win it. 1961 was the first to make the Final Four. Gardner had been the coach at Utah for eight seasons and had built a consistent...
Ute Madness: #3 1944 versus #6 1991
via www.lib.utah.edu 1944 proved to be an extremely good team. Their season set the bar as the only team out of the two-major sports to win a national championship. That championship came in the middle of World War II and those Utes are thought to be the first true tournament Cinderella team. In...
Ute Madness: #2 1997 versus #7 1996
1996 & 1997 didn't end as happily as many had hoped As we continue with the madness, we move on to the second game of the first round. This is actually a pretty good match-up, in my opinion. Both 1996 and 1997 were similar, however, 1997 gets the slight edge. They get the edge because this...
Ute Madness: 1998 versus 2005
Utah and Kentucky duke it out in the 1998 National Championship Game Now that the play-in voting is done, we'll move on to the first match-up. This should be pretty lopsided with how 1998 is often regarded as the best season in Utah basketball history. It is. That team managed to make the NCAA...
Ute Madness: Vote to see who goes on to lose to the 1998 team
YAY! Here we go! It's the beginning of Ute Madness. Excited? No? Well I'm not, either. I mean, I'd rather the Utes be in the NCAA Tournament instead of producing a fictional tourney. But oh well - what else are we going to talk about? Today's vote is a play-in type deal. Winner advances to take on...
The Ute March Madness selection post
All right, folks! We had the vote and it looks like we're ready to eliminate two teams from the debate. That team will be the 1999 Runnin' Utes who went undefeated in conference play, won the conference tournament and then were upset in the second round by Miami Ohio. Great, great regular season...
The Utes' own March Madness
With the Utes sitting out March Madness this year, I thought we'd at least get in on some action and create our own tournament. No, I'm not suggesting the Utes take on other struggling programs around the country. Instead, this will be a tournament that incorporates the best teams in Utah history...
