Utes win! It's a miracle!

I'm feeling better about the tall boys in shorts. In case you missed the score or the game, the men beat Number 13 (#11 in coaches poll) Air Force 85-79, despite some late efforts by the officials to change the result.
Actually, the officiating was not nearly as bad as it was against TCU, still not as good as it should be in Division 1-A college basketball, but better than we've seen.
It seems the Utes need a really good opponent to step up their game. After all, Washington State, whom they defeated 69-55 back in December, is #21 in the coaches poll. Maybe Giacoletti just needs better opponents to step up his coaching to match the potential talent on the team.
So I have hope again. But I'll missing the Wyoming game and won't be able to watch SDSU. But I'll be back up there for the BYU game. I'll be the one in red, yelling, who knows the words to "Utah Man."
