Utes men’s basketball coach Larry Krysktowiak wants his team to have tunnel vision focused on its next opponent, Washington. However, he knows the final weeks of the season could get wild in the Pac-12.
Utah (15-9, 7-6) enters this week in a four-way tie for sixth place in the conference along with No. 25 Arizona State, Colorado and Stanford. Washington and Oregon are tied for fourth at 7-5 in conference play. UCLA and USC sit in a tie for second at 8-5 behind No. 17 Arizona (10-3). Utah’s goal remains to climb into one of the top four slots and avoid having to win four tournament games to win the Pac-12 title.
