Utah
Utah is starting to heat up. While not as talented as his past teams, Majerus has these guys playing their best basketball, winning 10 in a row. Utes have beaten BYU 7 years in a row at the Huntsman Center. Last year Utes won by 7 and that was with the best BYU team in a long time, (Wesley, Whiting, Lyday--all who are gone). Utah Center Chris Burgess is still out, but they have 3 guys who can play the 5 and will rotate them. Utah shoots a blistering 48% for the season behind the arc and over 56% their last 5 games. They only allow opps to shoot 31% from 3 with long armed defenders such as Britton Johnson on the perimeter. BYU got off to a hot start including win over Stanford, but have slowed a little since conference play started. Plus they are only 1-5 on the road. Keep an eye on Nick Jacobsen for Utes, he's 52-99 on 3's this year and was 15-23 last week and was MWC player of the week. Should have about 15,000 tonite and place will be rockin' no love lost between these 2 schools. good luck.
