Game Notes:
After a painful double-overtime loss in Seattle, the Utes are back home to face the team that started their current 10 game losing streak; Oregon State. The Utes lost Saturday in double overtime to the Washington Huskies 77-73 after having a great shot to win the game in regulation and again in overtime but just ran out of steam in the second overtime. Branden Carlson finished with a team-high 18 points in the losing effort; certainly a positive sign after returning from his bout with appendicitis. The Utes will continue to be without Boystyn Holt (season-ending injury) and Dusan Mahorcic who was suspended indefinitely for a violation of team rules just before the game against the Huskies.
