bibbins went 0-5 against us in the Keg. We were owed that. Dude made shots in the 2d half (first half was shooting practice). Senior night strikes.

Furk. There was a chance in 2H.
Walton’s dunk was worth tuning in for. The road just kills the Buffs.

I’ve said this before but my conclusion about how to win on the road is:
...have a much better team than your opponent.

If Dom comes out flat again vs ASU, he should just sit. He had his senior night. He's a liability at this point especially on the road. I saw Schwartz make more threatening, athletic moves in this game than Dom has in 4 years.
King's been really disappointing lately but I still think he's capable of a big game, and he still rebounds.

It was a positive that the Buffs came out and worked hard the second half but somehow I have to think this team has the talent to win more than one road game in conference in a season. Don't know if it is in their heads or if it is something else but talentwise this team is good enough to win road games and end up well into the top half of the league.
I chalk a lot of that up to them being so young. Next season will be much more telling.
I give them a lot of slack for the youth, they have been better overall than I expected and the future should be bright.
They do need to figure out how to win on the road though and Tad's record in the PAC12 on the road hasn't been a great one. Some notable wins on the road but overall not what we need to be a conference contender and a regular in the NCAA tourney.
Next year will be telling. Does Tad get another pass from the fan base if they stink again?
There's a lot to look forward to in next year's team, I think.

No doubt experience will help next year, not sure how much improvement that will translate to in road wins (hopefully a few more).
The biggest letdown IMO was the upper class inconsistency. Excusing Tory, between Dom, George & Namon, we never know what we’re getting (for George the only inconsistency is scoring). Imagine if those 3 had been able to come up with 30-40 ppg between them with consistency, how different this season would have been, even with a load of talented but inexperienced newcomers.
I was surprised to see that Utah coach Krystkowiak is #8 on highest paid coaches . . . . second highest in Pac-12. Utah now has #3 seed in tourney.

Nice, thanks for posting!
The boo and I were sitting about 20 rows back from where Walton threw it down. I was expecting more Buff fans , based of the football attendance , but we saw only maybe 10 people? The Utes have a nice little basketball tradition going on but the whole "U" thing is a little obnoxious. Also, it's hard to build this rivalry when the fans are so dam nice . Football, too. Schwartz is going to be a baller . I Cant wait to watch him grow up. He liked going at it near the Utah student section and was feeding off that energy once they cut it to 4
Short of another conference championship run does Tad deserve to be on the hot seat?

That is an indigestion moment for the other coaches in the league. Dallas is just barely touching what he is capable of.
A true seven footer who can put the ball on the floor and in three steps go from the three point line to over the rim. He has already shown this year that he can shoot from out there. Going to be interesting to see what he becomes.
