It was up to post players Elston Jones and Evans to pick up the slack for Collette. But both drew their fourth fouls within a minute of each other at the midway point of the second half.
Duryea put Evans on the bench but left Jones in until he drew his fifth foul with 5:28 remaining. In his last few minutes on the court, Jones scored a bucket and grabbed a key rebound during an 8-0 run that gave Utah State a 62-58 lead.
Evans then shuttled onto the court and scored five points over the remainder of the contest.
