Another slow ugly agonizing loss in the making for the Utes.

15 more minutes until the big game against St. Mary's! Hoping the Cougars have their A game tonight!

Go Cougars!

Way too many turnovers. Utah struggles on offense already, we can't afford to sacrifice possessions like this and expect to have a chance to win. Hopefully Ladd cools down as well. There is no defense for shooting like that.
