the two games. They lost to BYU by 38 and lost to Utah by 35. I don't know what we are wringing our hands about here. Other than if we were hoping that U of U is terrible this season, we are likely mistaken.

They’re better than expected and projected I think.

Yep. I think they have the tools to finish 8 to 10 in conference standings.

8 would be quite the achievement, probably land them in the NCAA tournament.

I think that's way too high. For example, UCF is projected in that range.

Utah has the big advantage not having any fans in the arena to distract them when they shoot.

Another factor that worked in Utah's favor tonight...

Two significant edges we look to have on the yewts: Interior scoring; perimeter D.

Lovering the projected and returning starter for them at center has been out

Lovering plays very small for his size. He was not much a factor at the rim for them in our matchup last year.

But U of U still held us to 69 points last season, which wasn't a good offensive

You know, I'm beginning to believe the yewts are gonna have a better team on their hands than last season

Don't forget the we also had Hall out, one of our most important players.

He had himself a nice game. Solid shooting night for him, & plenty of stand-out moments on D.

It would be interesting to ask C Ark players or coach who they thought the more

Utah is always tough at home. They’ve been terrible on the road though. I know

That was a lot of effort to compare mostly meaningless games with Utah playing
