Oregon, and Gonzaga twice on its schedule. I don't know why you are knocking the WCC in your defense of Utah, when it would also be an indictment on them. BYU finished 2nd in the WCC and the #4 team knocked Utah out of the NIT as they ran away from Utah in that game. Utah went out to a 9-1 start and lost t its first road game of the season. I think Utah ended up 2-11 on the road. That to me is evidence against them having a break out year as some have predicted.
