The Utes opened up the 2019-20 basketball season with a nice win on the road against a Nevada team, that is also in a rebuild mode. Nevada may not be a great team, that will play out, but for this young Utah team, to get a road win in a tough environment is a nice confidence builder. I had some concerns after the exhibition game against UT Tyler last week, and those have been eased a little bit, but this team has a long ways to go.
The Utes were led by Timmy Allen’s 23 points, and Both Gach’s 22 points.
