Utes back in it down only 3

It's not a jinx to say GO CARD, right? I mean, I'm acknowledging that we can still lose, but I'm rooting for us to stay tough and pull this out.

Clinging to a six point lead with 3 min to go.
Looks like this is coming down to the wire.

FWIW, the advanced stats gave us just a 16% chance to win today, and this was the second hardest game remaining on our schedule (hardest being @UCLA).
Maybe Haase will be the first NCAA basketball coach fired despite winning his final 14 regular-season games...

I will never root for the team to lose but it would be classic Stanford if they win just enough down the stretch that Muir doesn't pull the plug. Haase needs to be gone regardless of what happens from here. That said, it's nice that our annual good start then late-season collapse may actually be reversed this year.

Great win. Is 10-18 from three repeatable for this Stanford team? I am skeptical, but it was a very good effort regardless.
Very nice to see the shortened rotation.
Still wish Ingram would do more.

Spencer Jones is holding on line 1. Says he wants to discuss "Cute", "Little", and "Home" as applied to Stanford's winning streak ...

My nightmare...
But yeah, I still root for them, too, every game.

I think the home game against Arizona and the away game against USC will be tougher than tonight's game. I'd love to be wrong about that, though. Also, let's say they somehow go 2-1 during that tough stretch against Arizona, UCLA and USC, and win out against everyone else. That would mean they finished the conference season at 12-8, the regular season at 19-12, and completed a remarkable 13-1 stretch. If they were to win two games in the conference tournament, they would finish with 21 wins and have an 8-2 record in their last ten games. That's definitely worth an NIT bid and worth consideration for an NCAA bid at the very least. Do we still let Haase go and have the team start all over again with a new coach? I'd say, "No". Don't wait another 7 years for the next postseason bid, but don't seek a change when we finally get to where we want to be, either.
Of course, I'd STILL want to get rid of Muir.

Stanford had not won a road game since Feb 12 last year. Amazing the good things that happen when you make shots.
