It was going to be a tough game for the Utes without Branden Carlson, who stayed in SLC in healthy and safety protocols. Without that big man and Dusan Mahorcic, the Utes were going to have a hard time rebounding and having any significant impact in the paint. This was pretty well illustrated by the shooting by the Utes, who shot 40% from three and 42% overall for the game. The Utes did most of their damage from beyond the arc. The Utes ended up falling 83-75, and it was a one or two-possession game throughout. The Utes had to play the foul game at the end, which is why the lead stretched to eight.
