Runnin' Utes at UCLA

[Tony (admin)]

My questions for tonight’s game are as follows:

1. Will Poeltl get in foul trouble?
2. Will the guards show up like they did in the past two home games?
3. Will Loveridge make an impact?
4. Will Tucker be on or off?
5. Is Reyes hurt? He didn’t play in the last game.

In order for us to win we need to get 3 of the first 4 in this list right, mostly #1 and #2.

I’m in my car atop a parking structure staring at Pauley Pavillon, listening to ESPN 700 on the iPhone. Business had me on the West Side and no way was I going to rot in traffic for 3 hours to get home to Fullerton. So I’m going to the game.

Go Utes!

P.S. Reyes was out sick with the Flu the last game.

[Tony (admin)]

I do remember hearing on the post-game that the whole team was very sick.

1. Will Poeltl get in foul trouble? (Yes, unfortunately this is the name of the game especially on the road)
2. Will the guards show up like they did in the past two home games? (We lose if they don’t)
3. Will Loveridge make an impact? (Yes, I think he has a big game from the 3 point range)
4. Will Tucker be on or off? (Off)
5. Is Reyes hurt? He didn’t play in the last game. (I believe he had the flu or something)

In order for us to win we need to get 3 of the first 4 in this list right, mostly #1 and #2.

I have to add 6. Do we turn it over more than 15 times?

Wilson’s Mustache I would think much of your #6 depends on the guards, though Poeltl and Loveride can get careless sometimes.

[Wilson’s Mustache]

The guards have definitely been turnover machines at times, but it seems when Utah gets out of rhythm the entire team tends to get careless with the ball.

Utah needs new guards hopefully for next seasons bigs. Wright is awful and I don’t even know how he keeps his schollie. Hopefully Ogbe gets healthy and Bonam learns to take care of the ball.

[Wilson’s Mustache]

I have high hopes for the Bonam, Ogbe, Bealer potential. Mostly because I doubt I have any other option than to hope for improvement.

[Tony (admin)]

Will Ogbe ever play again? Wow.

Next year is a huge mystery.

[Wilson’s Mustache]

Would have been less a mystery had Jayce played this year. I still think it a mistake that he is going to sit this year out even if it would have only been half a year.

Hopefully 4 years from now I’ll be commenting about how lucky we are to have Jayce for 4 full years.

[Tony (admin)]

UGH. Bill Walton on the call. Guess I’ll have to turn the sound off and/or put on 700.

[Wilson’s Mustache]

Yeah, I don’t understand the love for him.

Please win.

[Wilson’s Mustache]

Say what you want about Loveridge, but at least he knocks down his open shots. Utah would be a much different team if you could say that about all of the starters.

[Tony (admin)]

31-31 at half, and we aren’t playing great. Not playing terrible either. I little more D would help.

[Wilson’s Mustache]

Really thats a foul after they’ve let UCLA whatever they want all over the court?

What is it about Poeltl?

[Tony (admin)]

It’s frustrating how we can’t hold onto a lead.

[Wilson’s Mustache]

14 pt lead with 7 minutes left. Bye….

[Tony (admin)]

Way to go Taylor. Cardiac Utes win. Shouldn’t have come down to the last seconds after being up 14 in the 2nd half.

[Tony (admin)]

So postgame as ar as 1-4 goes:

Poeltl didn’t get in foul trouble but he struggled. He was the 1 of the 4 that didn’t happen. Loveridge, the guards, and Tucker all showed up.

[Wilson’s Mustache]

Was glad to see the Utes not turnt he ball over much.

[Wilson’s Mustache]

Heart attack kids pull it out…. yeash
