Two U. Opponents in Coaches Top 25
The USA Today/ESPN preseason coaches poll is out, and though the Utes are not on it, a couple of their upcoming opponents are there.

Gonzaga is the highest-ranked opponent, checking in at No. 11, while Oklahoma comes in at No. 13. The Utes play the Sooners on the road on Dec. 13, but get Gonzaga at home on Dec. 31.

The Utes also play several teams that received votes in the poll but didn't reach the Top 25, including UNLV, Brigham Young and LSU. No Mountain West Conference teams are in the top 25, and only one coach in the league -- San Diego State's Steve Fisher -- has a vote.
