Kragthorpe: Sad ending against Arizona State part of Utes’ weird start to Pac-12 play

Utah guard Justin Bibbins crouched at mid-court with his hands on his head in disbelief, after the ball somehow went deep into the basket and back out Sunday night.

Bibbins’ would-be winning shot in the final five seconds of an 80-77 loss to Arizona State ended the Utes’ wild adventure in the first two weeks of Pac-12 play, with two wins on the road and two losses at the Huntsman Center.

So what are we supposed to think about this team now? The Utes (10-5) need to go something like 12-6 in the Pac-12 with a couple of big-time wins to earn an NCAA Tournament bid.
