If you want to watch it, a replay is scheduled on PAC-12 Mountain at 7:30AM Thursday. Considering the result, maybe we all should watch.
Yes, the game was played at altitude.
Utah pulled down a dominant 85.4% of rebounds under the OU basket and a impressive 39% of rebounds under their own basket. (For comparison, Stanford was 75% and 55% tonight.) As a result, Utah had 18 more FGA.
Their 55% shooting overall helped bury the Sooners. Utah scored 13 3-ptrs (3 more than Stanford tonight) with 32.5% shooting while OU was 3 of 16. Three players had 20+ points. Three more had 10+ points.
OU had 15 turnovers (not good, but not the cause of the discrepancy).
If I read it right, OU starters were 6'3", 6'0", 6'0", 6'0", 5'3".
Utah started 6'2", 6'2", 5'11", 5'10", 5'6". The difference in rebounding must be due to hustle and blocking out.
Good game for PAC-12's Net rankings. Good to get a heads-up on Utah's potential this early.
