Utah Utes basketball: Difficult schedule continues with LSU

Anonymous | 8:55 a.m. Jan. 6, 2009

Remind me again about USU, SBU and ISU???

USU Grad | 9:15 a.m. Jan. 6, 2009

Remind me again about BYU not winning a Tournament game since 1991. Also, remind me again about BYU's 149 strength of schedule ranking. Ouch!

What? | 10:42 a.m. Jan. 6, 2009

That's tournament quality teams on a road trip.
Tell me again about SBU, ISU and SUU...
And if you really are a USU grad, how can you say anything to us. Go talk smack to a team you can beat.

Nothing can change the fact that BYU hasn't won a Tourny Game since 1991. Look at how many Tourny Games USU has won since 1991.

Also, compare the series win-loss record between BYU and USU since 1999. Ouch!!

Looks like the toughest games were Southwest Baptist and Idaho State, and of course, the us.

Weber State Graduate | 2:18 p.m. Jan. 6, 2009

What's the difference between Weber State's Basketball Program and BYU's program? Weber wins Tournament Games. Since 1991, BYU's last Tourny win, Weber has won 6 Tournament Games.

USU and the Utes have won Tourny Games too.

Tourny Wins = National Respect. BYU hasn't had any since 1991.

USU Grad, love it.

If both of you really want to blow your minds, go look at how many tournament games Utah has won since 1991. Better yet, come to the Huntsman Center and just look up in the rafters.

So anyway...back to the game... | 5:21 p.m. Jan. 6, 2009

If Utah can pull this off it really can help set a tone for conference play. Gonzaga was huge and the Utes played great vs. Wyoming.

Boylen has done a good job at toughening up this team. There are still many glaring weaknesses, but I like the direction we are headed.

Go Utes!!!

The LSU basketball team that is playing Utah tonight is not as good as their 12-1. But they have the building blocks for getting back to the NCAA tournament and Coach Trent Johnson will led the Bayou Bengals back to the Final Four sooner than most think.
