Utes Hanging Tough in Bracketology
The Utes aren't getting votes in the AP Top 25 just yet -- or "again," if you recall that stray vote they inexplicably picked up after a loss last month -- but they are still regarded pretty favorably in ESPN's Bracketology.

ESPN's Joe Lunardi is projecting the Utes will wind up an 11th seed in the NCAA Tournament -- and as the Mountain West Conference tournament champions, as well.

Just like the last Bracketology report two weeks ago, the Utes are projected to match up with Villanova. But Lunardi now sees that game landing in Portland, rather than Kansas City, which certainly would make it easier for fans to attend. Oh, and the Utes are one of only two Mountain West teams that Lunardi foresees in the tournament, including Brigham Young.
