Big win might loom even larger, later
Anybody notice what the Washington State Cougars did after the Utes handed them their first loss of the season, following their best start in 13 years?
Yep, they beat the Zags.
In a sign the Utes might have just enjoyed a victory that could really help them when teams are selected for the NCAA Tournament, the Cougars smothered the No. 18 Gonzaga Bulldogs in the final 3:38 and emerged with a 77-67 victory at Friel Court. That improved the Cougars to 8-1.
The Utes can make even more of a statement in the next few days, if they can beat Utah State and Rhode Island on the road.
