    Oregon 83 Utah 72 (73-67)

    PLAYER PER +/- PLAYER PER
    Kyle Kuzma 19 -0.6 Jordan Bell 18
    Devon Daniels 13 -1.5 Dillon Brooks 16
    David Collette 10 -6.2 Chris Boucher 16

    First off...Oregon is really good. Bell and Boucher don't get enough credit. Can we just call their top four the Oregon Killer B's?
    Second...Kuzma, Barefield and Daniels had good games, right in line with their average. But between Collette, Bonam and Rawson Utah was down -24 PER.
    Third...Give it up for PVD. Dude had the only positive PER in the game. He actually had a much better game vs Washington State but 2nd best for Pac12 game.
    Those three Collette, Bonam and Rawson were 9/16 from the field with 6 turnovers. Granted Collette was coming off a few days without practice and Rawson just didn't match up with Oregon.

    Kuzma's performance was the 28th best for a Ute. Bell only put up the 14th best for a UO.

    The bad...I have no idea how many dunks Oregon had...but it was a record. Utah gave up 6 blocks (season high) and 11 in the past 2 games. 37 in the first 18 games. Oregon finished at 49.1% and Utah finished at 48.1%. Both teams were over 50% for most of the game. Oregon scored a 2 on 32.8% of their possessions, Utah has allowed +30% in 5 of their 6 losses, the other game was only 17.9% from San Francisco (they made 19.1% of their possessions were from three, a season high). Utah actually had a really good game, nothing really stands out. -4 in steals was probably the difference in the game, Oregon was easily +6 on points off turnovers. The game was fairly slow, only 133 possessions. Utah games average 144.1 possessions. As a team, in Utah wins Utah is around 27.5% of all shots garnered an assist...in losses they are only at 19.5%.

    The good...Utah did give Oregon everything they could handle. 4 blocks was a high for a Utah loss. Utah held Oregon to only 20% of assists/shot attempts (season low for a Utah loss) but in Utah wins they hold their opponent under 16%. Oregon didn't beat Utah from the outside. The 27.8% was the lowest Utah allowed in a loss, giving up 39.2% in losses on the season. The 11 assists and 28 rebounds were also season lows for UO in Utah losses. This game was slow and methodical and efficient for both teams. Utah was only -1 in possessions but +5 in turnovers. That's your ballgame. Utah is +2 in turnovers in losses and +0.4 in wins.

    Tough game, Utah had a chance.

    The Beavers should be the cure. I say 81-60 win for Utah tomorrow. Go Utes!

    5 negative players? And it was all during the final 8 minutes? Utah dominated this game for 33 minutes and got destroyed for 7 minutes. Luckily for them the difference was 8 points.
    Van Dyke and Connor were awesome, 5/5 from deep combined.

    The bad...Oregon St shot 85% from the line 17/20. Utah had 0 blocks for the second time this year and are -8 on blocks in the last 3 games. Utah only shot 53.8% from the line 14/26 for a difference of -31.2% between OSU and Utah. Giving up a 28 point lead wasn't all that bad, it really showed how important the 1s are. Give it to Oregon St, they didn't give up. The two teams combined for only 11 offensive rebounds, season low for Utah game. This was the first game where a UO shot better than 50% and Utah won. Utah is 1-2 in those games. Utah is 4-6 in games where they allow 46% or better. 11-0 when their opponent shoots below 46%. Utah gave up a ton of defensive boards to Oregon St, nearly every Utah shot was rebounded by the Beavers.

    The good...Utah shot 58.2% 32/55 from the field and 50% from deep 8/16. Utah had an assist on 34.5% of all shots, averaging 25.6% Oregon State only had 4 offensive rebounds, season low for UO. Utah gathered 80.8% of defensive rebounding opportunities. This was the best shooting game for a Utah game, 54.2% combined 58/107. 6th time this season over 50% combined, 4-2 in those games.

    Utah needs more depth, Barefield and Rawson are slipping. Bealer isn't amounting to much. Johnson and Jokl are big dudes who are duds. Barefield had a nice 4 game stretch right around 10 but 1/5 yesterday was poor.

    Wow. Great game. The numbers are a bit inflated due to the 2 overtime ending.
    6 players played over 40 minutes. Kuzma 47, Bonam 42, Bird 48, Mullins 46, Rabb 43, Moore 41.
    Utah=Cal in records, in style, in everything. Whatever you think about Cal, realize that's the national perception of Utah.

    The bad...Again, the numbers are inflated for the extra 10 minutes. 4 season highs for a UO came about last night. 72 shot attempts, 30 defensive rebounds, 41 total rebounds, 9 blocks...Utah was -14 in three point attempts and +8 on turnovers. Turnovers was the difference in the game, without mentioning the 18-4 start. Utah was bad from three. 4/14 and only 4.8% of their possessions ended up in a made three. Only San Francisco and Butler did Utah have a worse game across the line defensively with that said...it was defense that got Utah back into the game. There were 15 missed free throws in this game, one extra one from either team ends the game in regulation. The turnover with 10 seconds left in the first half was the difference in the game. Utah committed a turnover on 21.6% of their possessions.

    The good...Utah never gave up. The game had 164 possessions which you'd think would be a season high given the 2OT, but San Francisco game had 167. Utah let that game slip out from under them. Utes still held Cal to only 19.4% assists per shots and 25% from deep, both season lows for a Utah loss. Utah had 42 rebounds and 6 blocks, both highs for a Utah loss. PVD has played great as of late. Minus the Concordia game (21 PER for PVD) he averaged 2.9 PER up to the Washington trip. Since the Washington trip he's averaged 8.8 PER, including a -1 EFF at Washington. Utah actually shot better than Cal in every manner +1.3% FG, +3.6% from 3, 10.8% from the line. Turnovers won the game for Cal.

    Colorado beat Stanford for their 3rd straight win. Oregon barely beat ASU (probably looking to Arizona) but that gives me more faith when Utah goes up there in 2 weeks.

    Beat Furd!

    Stanford 93 Utah 71 (Stanford 81-75)

    PLAYER PER +/- PLAYER PER Rank
    Kyle Kuzma 18 -2.0 Reid Travis 27 #5
    Tyler Rawson 17 +7.3 Robert Cartwright 17 #22

    Parker Van Dyke -1 -6.2 Cameron Walker -1
    Trevor Stanback -1


    Stanford actually dominated on the efficiency in this game. It was nice to see Rawson come back in a big way but the guard play had been poor lately. Bonam, Daniels, Zamora and PVD were all more than 5 PER under their average.

    The Bad....Stanford was very good at shots on assists. 29.1% of all their shots resulted in an assist. Only game better for a UO was UVU. The 54.5% was the highest shooting % Utah allowed all year. This was only the third game this season Utah allowed 90+ efficiency. 2-1 in those games (UCLA, UVU). Utah only scored a 2pt bucked on 20.9% of their possessions, a season low for Utah. Averaging 31.7% 2 point buckets. Utah was -6 in steals and this was only the second time all year they gave up 10+ steals (Butler). With that said Utah didn't turn the ball over that much, meaning Stanford took the ball, Utah didn't lose it. Utah has only shot worse than their opponent 4 times this year (Butler -16.3%, Stanford -10.5%, Arizona -3.1% and Oregon -0.9% 0-4 in those games). Stanford won this game in the paint. Stanford scored on 51.4% of their possessions, Utah has been allowing 42.2% of possessions a bucket. The free throw shooting was bad, Utah was 13/22 only the 5th time Utah shot worse than 60% from the line, 2-3 in those games. Teams combined for 27/48 for 56.3%, 2nd worst of the season (Washington 52.5% )

    The good...Only Butler 7/15 and Washington 12/24 shot worse from the line, Stanford was 14/26 53.8%. Utah only gave up 28 rebounds, averaging 31.3 allowed. Plus the 14 attempts from deep was the second least a team shot vs Utah (SFA shot 10)...probably because they were making interior shots all game. Utah made a three point bucket 13.1% of all possessions, 10/24 for 41.7%, this was the best shooting performance from deep for Utah in a loss, averaging 29.7% in losses. . Utah was +5 in possessions for the game, only Butler +6 was higher.

    Utah really needed this game, I'm afraid at this point they're NIT bound unless they make a strong tournament push. I think losing in the Pac12 CG might still be NIT bound unless they can beat Oregon twice and Arizona in the tournament.

    Washington's coming to Salt Lake next week should help Utah earn back some confidence.

    Devon Daniels is having a very up and down season. Typically by this time of the year freshmen begin to wear down. It will be interesting to see how he finishes.
    Below is a graph of Devon's season for PER. Game 13 began Pac12 play

    Collette was a beast. Kuzma was a ghost and Barefield...his name is Cedric right?

    The good. Utah had been allowing 5.4 blocks over the past 5 games...0 last night. WSU only shot 6/8 from the line off 11 fouls (2nd lowest for Utah). On the flip side Utah shot 22/31 from the line (2nd most) off 19 WSU fouls. Obviously Utah was forcing the issue (getting fouled) and not forcing shots (getting blocked). Utah picked up 87.1% of all defensive rebounding opportunities, only allowing 5 offensive boards. Utah had 11 steals (season high) which won the game.

    The bad...Washington State had 19 assists (tied season high for UO) which resulted in 32.8% of assists to shots (season high). Utah only shot 13.3% from deep 2/15 (2 makes being a season low...averaging 6.6 makes a game). That wouldn't have been so bad if WSU wasn't 10/22 for 45.5% which kept the Cougars in the game. The 11 offensive boards combined tied the season low for Utah game (USF, Hawaii, OSU).

    Utah needed this win. They still have a shot at 4th place.

    Bring on the Huskies.

    Something interesting is the first meeting was a 112-58 score in efficiency. Exactly the same for this game. +22 pt victory in game 1, +24 pt victory in game 2.
    Something about Washington that the Utes just match up well against. Especially Devon Daniels. 2 of his top 3 performances were vs Washington (28 and 25).

    The bad...Utah was only 6/9 from the line today. They were also -2 on blocks. The teams combined for only 12/21 from the line (2nd lowest all year) off of 30 total fouls (season low 21 combined). That's about it for the bad.

    The good...Devon Daniels. He just owns Washington. Fultz was out which was huge but it was an exact replica of the first game that Fultz played in so can't say he would've changed a lot. Crisp made up the difference. Washington only had 14 defensive rebounds and 23 total rebounds, both season lows for UO. Utah has been giving up 12 free throws made per game, Washington St and Washington combined for 12/20. Utah picked up 55.6% of all offensive rebounding opportunities, easily a season high. Utah owned the offensive boards at +6. Utah was great from deep also. 16.1% of all possessions resulted in a 3pt basket. They've been averaging 10.6% of all possessions. Utah had 21 assists which was 1 shy of season high (Coppin and Prairie View). The 11 makes was 1 behind the Coppin State game, but Utah shot 5% better in today's game. The last time Utah played Washington the Utes shot 58.3% from deep, obviously they do something against the Huskies to get the shots and they exploited it today. Washington only shot 50% from the line 6/12. Only one team has shot below 50% vs Utah, that was Butler 7/15, a game Utah lost by 9. The +6 makes on three pointers tied the season high for Utah.

    Note, the last three games Utah is -5 on steals, total of 53 steals combined. 17.7 combined steals per game in the last 3. Utah games were averaging 11.7 combined steals per game. Better defense or sloppy offense, whatever it is it isn't in Utah's favor right now. But Utah is 2-1 in that same stretch.

    Huge game in Eugene next week. It is a must win for Utah for any chance at an at-large bid.

    When Jace Johnson and Gabe Bealer are the only two who have improvement games, something is not going to go well.

    Give it up for Jace, his first double double. He had 14 reb and 8 pts vs Nazarene and 9 reb and 12 pts vs Riverside.
    His 1.09 PER/Min was the 5th best of the season and the highest for a road game for a Ute.
    His 12 rebounds was 7th best for the season for a Ute.
    Here are the double double counts:
    • Kyle Kuzma 15 (6 on the road)
    • Jace Johnson 1 (@Oregon)
    • Devon Daniels 1 (Riverside)
    • Lorenzo Bonam 1 (Riverside)


    Obviously not having Kuzma sucked.

    The good...For the third straight game Utah only gave up 12 or less free throw attempts. Averaging 17 on the season. That translates to a low foul count, averaging 13 over last three games, 16.7 for the season. Utah had 68 shot attempts and 76 possessions...problem is they only shot 38.2%, not a season low. Utah only had 13.1% of their possessions result in a turnover, averaging 20.6% Utah was +6 on offensive boards, mainly because Oregon shot 53.4% from the field. Utah only had 10 turnovers, -3 under their average. Lastly, Jace Johnson. He led the team in PER but still only 28th best on the season 7/9 from the field, 12 rebounds. If he can remove those 3 turnovers and 2 terrible free throws he would've been mid 20s, that would've bumped him into top 15. That's about it for the good

    The bad...Utah. They were bad. Not having Kuzma was key but the shooting was awful. Oregon collected 31 defensive boards (season high for UO), 31 made field goals (3rd most), 10 blocks (season high) 109 team efficiency (+41.2 over UO average) 41.9% of all possessions ending in 2pt shot (season high) that's it for Oregon records. For Utah they only had 16 defensive board, -15 on defensive boards (both lows), 61 points (3rd lowest-Butler, Arizona) 51 team efficiency (2nd lowest - Butler), 38.2% shooting (2nd lowest - Butler) 15.8% shooting from 3 (3/19 - 3rd lowest- Butler, Washington St last week). Utah had a 0.67 team efficiency per possession. The Utes are 0-3 when they are <1 on this stat. Utah was -7 on blocks. -58 on team efficiency, -36.4% from the line, -15 defensive boards, -8 assists, -16.3% on assists to shot ratio...(all season lows). In other words, Oregon kicked their asses.

    Moving on, I had that game as a loss.

    Time for some good beaver action to make everything feel better.

    Well this season was fun.

    I'm going to make this quick.

    The Bad...Utah 5/9 from the line? 55.6% is awful. -5 in blocks, +6 in turnovers = a loss.

    The good...Utah was 43.8% of possessions resulted in a 2pt bucket. Oregon State only had 25 rebounds, tied for 2nd least for UO. The other good, we can shelf our expectations until next year at this point. A long NIT run is the best case scenario...and that's....ok.

    Great road win to finish the road season at 5-6. Jace Johnson has been great lately. Double digit PER in 3 of the last 5 games (9 vs WSU). His aggressiveness and rebounding have surely helped out coming off the bench.
    Keep in mind that Bealer and Bonam are the only seniors on this team.

    The good...So many fouls. 60 free throws. Utah 25 (season high) for 32 (2nd highest) and 78.1% from the line. 9 turnovers for Utah was -4 under their average. Colorado only had 2 steals, Utah allows 6.2 per game. The 185 combined efficiency was the 5th best of the season (average is 159.4). Utah made a three on 15.5% of all their possessions (average is 10.5% ) . The 9 three pointers made was 5th best of the season. When Utah gets under 30 rebounds they are 2-7 which makes them 16-3 when they get over 30 rebounds. The combined 76.7% from the line was a season high for a Utah game.

    The bad...48 combined personal fouls. The first game had 49, SFA game had 48. 46/60 was a season high for both from the line combined. Utah was -12 on shot attempts and -7 on offensive boards. Luckily for the Utes they were +11.3% from the field. Utah had -16 possessions, only game worse was Xavier. At least it was called even, both teams had 24 fouls (high for the Utes). Overall it was a good game from Utah. Utah was +14% from deep and -1 in turnovers.

    One more home stand and it's off to Vegas.

    There's gotta be some kind of PER deduction for his form on free throws.

    That form is terrifying. Why has nobody ever corrected that?

    Cal forgot to show up.

    The good...Cal only made 12 shots. Utah allows 24.6. Cal only had 3 assists...Utah allows 11.7. Cal had 5.9% of their shots off an assist. 27 efficiency, 0.25 assist to turnover, 35.5% of possessions was a score. Pretty much every Cal stat was the second worst of the season for a UO. Only game 1 NW Nazarene was worse. Utah shot a season high 16/19 84.2% from the line. Average now at 68.7% on the season. Other than that Utah had a fairly average game, Cal just sucked.

    The bad....Utah was only 4/20 from deep at 20%. Cal only broke the 30 point barrier because they were 18/23 from the line. Utah has given up 39/51 from the line the last two games. 8 times this season they've allowed 23 free throws or more, twice the past 2 games. Combined both teams season lows in the following 6 three point makes, 118 points, 15.8% three point shooting. 6/38 yikes. Devon Daniels

    That's about it.

    Why didn't we have senior season for ZoBo? Dude killed it today.

    I'll do a regular season stats next but let's look at the final game.
    1st game all season where Utah won the game but lost the efficiency.
    They tied vs UVU at 93

    The bad...Stanford played a great game and led most of the game. The bad news for them was somebody pissed off Bonam. Stanford shot 53.3% from deep 8/15 which was the 2nd best all year for UO (San Francisco 57.1% ). The Cardinal had 30% of their shots off an assist, Utah allows 20%. Utah only made a 2 point basket on 22.7% of their possessions, season low. Utah averages 35.8% of their possessions getting a 2pt basket. 42.9% shooting for Utah was the worst they've shot in a win.

    The good...Utah was +12 in possessions. Utah also had 10 steals (19 in the last 2 games), utah is +10 in steals over the three game win streak. Utah only had 12 fouls average is 16.7. Utah made a three on 16.2% of their possessions, a season high. Utah was 16% vs Stanford the first game. Utah is 7-1 when they score over 14% of their possessions from deep.

    Utes didn't need this win for the BYE but they needed this win for a chance at the dance. I think if they make it to the final game (which means beating Oregon) then they get in. Otherwise it's NIT...and that's....ok.

    I made the observation on twitter that Utah was really hurt by Bealer getting in foul trouble in both halves. That +/- seems to support that. He'll be an interesting player next year, seems like the light turned on and he could be a solid complimentary piece.

    Very true, not sure if you're aware of not but the +/- is that players total over or under their season average not the score +/- for the game. Still the comment holds true. Bealer really has come on late.
    Next season could be interesting. What was up with PVD vs Boise? Jace only 1 minute? Something seemed off.

    I keep hearing rumors that Kuzma is NBA bound. Many draft board have him early 2nd round. Not sure that's worth it.
    Recruits coming in are mission bound, other than that not a lot will change. Other than Tillman replacing Bonam and Seeley seeing the floor the team is/will be the same.


    Next Season roster prediction:

    1s - Zamora - PVD - Connor
    2s - Barefield - Daniels - Bealer - Rydalch
    3s - Kuzma - Seeley - Tillman
    4s - Collette - Rawson - Reininger
    5s - Johnson - Jokl

    Won't hit depth chart/transfer?
    Connor - Coaches kid, probably in it for 4 years
    Rydalch - Great story, great kid, legacy, he'll be a 4 year bench guy.
    Reininger - Might belong at mid-major level for significant playing time.
    Jokl - Pac12 is just above his level.

    I could see Reininger and Jokl leaving if Utah gets a JC big man transfer or late commit.
    I thought if Akot came that Kuzma would surely leave, now I'm not so sure. I don't think Kuzma like Coach K, Larry pushes him hard and honestly KK is a bit of an introvert.

    SMALL FORWARDS
    Donnie Tillman, HS PF, 6'7" 225, needs to stay light to play 3, too small for a 4.
    Chris Seeley, 6'6" 215, crazy athletic but raw and inexperienced. Hopefully a year away he grows in ability.
    Kyle Kuzma, 6'9" 221, All Pac12 first team, projected 2nd round NBA player, lacks leadership,

    Utes need a floor general.
    The most outspoken player is Devon Daniels and he apparently is a loose cannon. K needs to corral DD and let him lead this team, his aggressiveness and attitude could be a great leadership to the team.
