I saw our players being mugged in front of the officials who just swallowed their whistles. One would expect the refs to miss a call or two during a game, but this was terribly 1-sided and those officials (along with our bad passing and turnovers), were the reasons for our loss.
One other thing that shocked me was how disrespectful the fans were toward our team, beginning with the warm-ups, player introductions, to the tip-off, and all during the game. Members of the Utah band were among the biggest culprits. It was ugly.
But the best moment of the game for me came when Tara took out Brink just before the final horn. Band members were yelling and pointing fingers at her. CAM BLEW THEM A KISS and that silenced them!
I do hope we meet the Utes again (on a neutral court) and I believe the outcome will be different.
We were at the game and absolutely confirm the lack of respect from the Utah announcers and fans. The game announcing was all one-sided for Utah, and concluded with claiming Utah won the Pac-12 championship rather than correctly naming the Stanford-Utah tie. The fans booed the players throughout the game. Hurray for Cameron's poise and for all of our players who focused on their game.
