After Utah dispatched Ball State 90-72, they remained steady at No. 25 in the AP Top 25. The Runnin' Utes definitely have a chance to move up the polls this week, as they take on No. 16 San Diego State Aztecs at Viejas Arena tomorrow at 2 p.m. MT.

The Utes are 53-18 against their former conference foes, but SDSU has won the last five contests between the two teams, as well as the last five in San Diego. SDSU is the first of three ranked teams Utah will face in the preseason (No. 5 Kansas and No. 11 Wichita State are the other two).
