The Runnin' Utes received a no. 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament and will face the no. 14 seed Fresno State Bulldogs of the Mountain West Conference on Thursday.
Utah emerged from selection Sunday with a no. 3 seed in the Midwest region of the NCAA Tournament bracket. Despite the no. 3 seed, it will be a tough road for Utah through the tournament if they are to make a run. Elite teams Virginia and Michigan State are the favorites to escape the region, but other good teams like Purdue, Iowa State and Seton Hall also lurk.
