Congrats to the Utes on a gutty performance, finally able to hold on for a close win. It would be fun to me you in the conference finals. Good luck against UNLV. They looked vulnerable against TCU.
Gutty performance down the stretch for the Utes. They deserved the win. Well done!
I thought they were going to fold in OT, but no. How good it feels to be wrong. Beat the Rebels. go UTES!!!
Exciting basketball with the Utes finally winning a close one. Good luck against UNLV today. I'd like to see another Utah/BYU matchup.
Congrads Utah!! excellent fight and win. I thought going into this game you guys would pull it off. Now go kick on UNLV. TCU showed that they are vulnerable. It would be awsome to have a BYU, UTAH championship game.
NO way that new mexico deserves to get in. their RPI is around 60 and it will continue to go down and SOS is 111 the last I saw. Also no quality wins anywhere on the schedule. Also the Mountain West doesn't deserve 3 teams. BYU is a lock and UNLV better be careful or they might get bounced in the end.
Dang, I was hoping to be smart with my own one and done comments like we have received all week. Good lookin Utes, I still don't like you much, but I would rather see you guys representing over most of the teams in the MWC.
Woulda' coulda' shoulda'. How many times this season did we endure a game like this, only to lay an egg at the end? The season coulda' been so different had we learned how to win like this before the conference tournament. It looks like most Ute fans thought they knew the way this was going (I was one of them) and went to bed before the inevitable end as the only other comments above are from Cougar fans. Thanks for the comps by the way, and yes it would be fun to meet up again one more time this year. Finally, once again yes, we should have a decent chance against the unfair home court advantage and UNLV. Maybe the Utes will finally figure out they can win the close ones after all.
I agree with you John, I think the Utes ended New Mexico's hopes of an NCAA Birth. They were a bubble team to begin with and an early loss in this tournament is bad news for them! There are too many other teams out there that are deserving of a tournament bid..
Utes, good Job. I would be awsome to see you take down UNLV tonight. and Play the Cougars in the Champ game.
Win or lose That was a great game Last night.
Two games to the big dance.
I think I posted last week that the Utes weren't out of it yet.
Way to go Utes!
Take down the rebels. You had them last week, but now finish out at the end of the game. Here is to a BYU-UTAH Championship game.
After watching the game last night I wish the BYU kid would have been given the award outright. The taunting, celebrating and chest thumping got old and showed a lack of class. Great to see him miss the last shot. Good game Utes.
Good luck Utes against UNLV but you'll need more than luck. If you saw the end of the UNLV/TCU game you can see why there is a home court andvantage. No way a ref calls that foul on a neutral court. It was a no call situation and the ref made a home court call.
As a Ute I would like to thank the classy comments from the Cougs
It was great to see so many different players step up at times: Kepkay, Green, Borha, JB, Neville, Brown, and Tillie all had their moments. Go Utes!
Way to go utes. Playing to potential.
Lets have a utah/byu final!
Of course, all of the BYU fans are now Utah fans. I can see right through these so called "classy comments." Shows how confident you are in your team. Simply put, the Courgars are in fear of meeting UNLV for the championship, so you need Utah to knock them off. If you are a top 25 team, then you should be able to knock off UNLV on their home court. It's not about a BYU-Utah matchup! You just want to avoid UNLV--plain and simple.
Way to go Utes! Great game, hope to see you in the championship game. Way to represent Utah!
