Utah Basketball: Runnin' Utes Pull Out Overtime win over Washington, 80-75

The Utes dug themselves into a hole to open the Pac-12 schedule, and now it appears that they may have dug themselves back out after sweeping the Washington schools. Utah (15-5, 4-3 Pac-12) picked up a big win on the road Sunday night, against the Washington Huskies (13-6, 5-2 Pac-12) in overtime by a score of 80-75. Washington was alone in first place before the night started. Utah was led by Jakob Poeltl's All-American effort of 29 points, 10 rebounds, and four assists. Poeltl came up big from the free throw line, hitting 13-of-16. Following up Poeltl's big night was Kyle Kuzma, who put in 11 points and 10 rebounds, Lorenzo Bonam pitched in 12 points, plus Dakari Tucker and Jordan Loveridge had 10 a piece (all of Loveridge's points came in the second half and overtime).
