Spread finally released and it's Utah by 9.

Utah has the second youngest team in the entire country and were picked to finish 9th in the Pac12. Don't let that lull you into thinking this will be an easy victory. Larry Krystkowiak has been a solid coach (makes approx $3.5mil) and has led his team to 20 win seasons and had the Utes in an NCAA or NIT every year since 2012 except for a disappointing 2018-2019 season.

I would not like to bet this game, but if I did, I would pick Utah to win and Tulane to cover. Final score: 79-71, Utah.

Oh yeah...game time is 9:30 this morning while you're at mass.

When the Wave go to Shanghai next year, they may leave Zhang over there.

It's ridiculous how much more competitive and active this team is than those Dunleavy teams.

The level of intensity is captivating, even on a Sunday morning.

If either Zhang or Koka could play a lick of interior defense this team would be a top tier defensive squad.

Neither team can stop turning the ball over. Tulane is ice cold. The saving grace is that their defense has been acceptable.

They won the game by going inside late and using the holes in what is a good Utah zone.

Wow!! A great win. This team is fun to watch--100% effort, 100% of the time. They have also been coached how to play some nasty defense. I know Fritz comes to many of our basketball games--I hope some of his players do as well, and can see what playing start to finish looks like.

I'm loving this! Coach Walker is a trip. His post-game interview is a can't miss!

Can you think of anyone you would rather send into an undecided recruit's house instead of Coach W? Buy him the house on Lake Pontchartrain, Troy!

Sunday Mass Prayers worked! 10-0 run at the end brought about by exceptional time-out coaching from Ron Hunter. This one belongs to the GOOD GRIEF Charlie Brown the WAVE is for Real!

The Wave is currently 21st in the country in forced turnovers I believe.

I remember Saint Louis has having a pretty storied BB history. Did we not play them during Metro years?

Coach Hunter's team gutted this one out. A great win and should build some confidence.
