Men’s Basketball: Big Sky bust
The team that started the season as the pre-season Big Sky champs found itself unable to defeat the same opponent it had already taken down twice.
Idaho pushed past Southern Utah twice in the regular season, including its last game just five days ago, but was unable to pull together a repeat performance, falling 92-78.
The first 10 minutes of the game stayed relatively close, with Southern Utah and Idaho swapping leads a handful of times before the Thunderbirds took control, going on an 8-0 run over nearly two minutes.
Southern Utah held a steady lead over Idaho for several minutes of the game before Idaho regrouped and went on an 8-0 run of their own.
