Wow what an exciting ending. It looked like they blew it by bobbling it in the backcourt.

Holy crap, what a lucky shot to finish a crappy possession. Good for the Utes."It's devastating, because we lost to a team that's not even in the Pac-12. To lose to Utah State is horrible." - John White IVComment

That was our first lead of the night"The first thing I learned upon becoming a head coach after fifteen years as an assistant was the enormous difference between making a suggestion and making a decision."

lol I never felt sorry for New Mexico or Steve Alford.Originally posted by Coach McGuirk View Post
Actually, Alford has done a pretty crappy job this year with a nice constellation of blue chippers. He probably has more ESPN 90s than anyone in the conference including San Diego State.When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

Is dislike for Steve Alford the one thing that can unite Y and U fans?
Go Utes!
Ps I haven't followed but has Hines always been this good? His final shot aside, he had a great game. Where has this guy been all season?Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

Ha! This was a great game because one of these two teams got to lose. Can't stand Alford.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View Post"Nobody listens to Turtle."-TurtlesigpicComment

Hines has shown flashes of brilliance very occastionally the past two years. The Utes are an ideal set up for a new coach, just like St. John's was with nine or whatever horribly underachieving relatively talented seniors. This team has the pieces of a team that could surprise next year. But I don't have any confidence Boylen can pull it together.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View Post
Utah's best player was out, and it's not unusual for players like Hines to rise to the occasion in the short term when confronted with such adversity.When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

Did anyone else watch the mtn wrap up show? There were highlights of all the mens and Title 9 basketball games around the conference.
Apparently, the Ute womens team beat the Lobos womens team....on a buzzer beater 3.
What are the odds?Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

Huh.Comment

As other have stated, wow.
I'm proud of the way the team didn't give up. That horrendous start in the 2nd half is usually a sign that this team has accepted the loss. Good to see them get rewarded for not giving up.
Ruining the Lobos chances at the Big Dance isn't a consolation for the season, but I have to admit that it's more fun to be a spoiler than to be spoiled.
I don't dislike Alford; in fact, I think he's a great coach and have never had a problem with anything he's said. Now, if he were Dave Bliss, then I would send a mock-o-gram to the basketball offices of UNM.

The Lobos were considered a bubble team. Granted, because the BCSification of college basketball, UNM not being in one of the approved conferences does make your statement most likely true.Originally posted by SeattleUte View Post"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." - Winston Churchill
