U. Opponents Rank High in RPI
Well, look who's the latest No. 1 in the Ratings Percentage Index.

It's the Oklahoma Sooners, who beat the Utes last weekend in Norman. Not only that, but Gonzaga -- which will visit the Huntsman Center next week -- remains No. 9, even after choking away a victory against UConn on Saturday. And Cal, which beat the Utes at home, checks in at No. 10.

No wonder the Utes are holding steady at No. 35, with a schedule that ranks 24th in the country (as opposed to 243rd, like the Utah State Aggies who they will play on Monday). Now, if they can just start beating some of these higher-ranked teams, they will really take off.
