In a thrilling conclusion to a closely contested game, No. 22 Utah secured a 77-76 victory over eighth-ranked Colorado, with Dasia Young's buzzer-beating layup marking a significant moment in the match. Young's return to the court was notable, having missed four games due to a concussion. The game saw Utah at one point leading 62-50 at the end of the third quarter, highlighted by Kennady McQueen's wide-open 3-pointer. Lynne Roberts, Dasia Young, and Ines Vieira discussed the victory, noting the significance of Ines Vieira's free throws in the game's outcome. The victory had implications for the Pac-12 standings, as it enabled Oregon State to tie with Colorado for second place, with the potential to take over second with a win over UCLA. The current standings see Stanford leading, followed by Oregon State and Colorado. The Pac-12's competitiveness this season is underscored by the fact that Colorado, despite being considered a top seed in the NCAA Tournament, could finish anywhere from first to sixth in its conference.
