Utes gave a good fight but that wcc is just too tough
 
Well on the positive side for Ute's fans, Delon Wright certainly didn't improve his draft stock at all for this year.
 
Utes gave a good fight but that wcc is just too tough

That was the perfect game. Utah goes up big early, their fans start throwing around the Pac 12 junk on twitter, Waldo puts on his usual show with the breakaway missed dunk and a few other beauties. Then Saint Mary's guards press up on Utah in the second half and just destroy them. Should repeat on ESPN for the next 5 years.
 
Tough to say. The media thought no one would be able to, hence that preseason number one rank. I do have UK winning but I don't feel very confident about the pick.

Either way, it's going to be the UGLIest of games.

Truth.
 
I assume you'll feel like the SEC is relevant when MSU starts to win.
Btw, the SEC has been represented by 4 of the last 9 national champions.
Doesn't mean they're good in depth.. they're not. But it does mean it's not weak top to bottom.

Solid chance at getting the national championship this year as well
 
That game last night summed up our season as a Ute fan. Had double digit leads in the second half or chances to win in the final minute with all these teams and lost: Arizona, Oregon, @ASU, @Wash, @Wazzu, @Stanford, @Boise,@CU and now @St.Mary's. That game had very little to do with St. Mary's. If you watched the game St. Mary's had no business being in the game. Utah was up 10-15 the whole first half and some of the second and had chance after chance to blow the game open. Missed shots and unforced turnovers turned the game around. Then Utah played with no aggression, but credit ST. Mary's for doing the opposite. Utah should've won the game just like many of the games above, but have no mental toughness, lack a leader and have no one to take a clutch shot.

Calm down Kentucky. Meant the depth of the league. It's an awful league after Florida/UK. UK is the 2nd best team and would probably be a middle of the road team in the better conferences.

Haha.. the last couple years, sure. UK is #1 in all-time wins, all-time winning%, #2 in chips, #1 in conf wins and chips (of any conf).... don't get me started, troll.

Dude, we are talking about the last couple of years. Stop being so pre-butthurt.
