Utah women's basketball coach Lynne Roberts made a late defensive substitution to help the Utes hold off BYU on Saturday. She told her team, “We don’t even have to score again, we just need to defend and get rebounds.”
A young Utah roster showed it can win in multitude of ways — an important step as the upstart Utes eye a March run. BYU battles Utah in basketball action between the Utah Utes and the Brigham Young Cougars, at the Marriott Center in Provo, on Saturday, Dec. 10, 2022.Maybe it was because it finally wasn’t about offense, a rarity for the head coach of the most explosive offensive team in the country. Or maybe it was simply because she really wanted to highlight this specific sequence.
From that point on, Utah cruised to a 17-point win, 76-59, over BYU . It wasn’t about the offense. It was about the defense, more specifically the defensive adjustments, that pushed the No. 15 Utes to an 8-0 start on the season. But the true significance of what transpired at the Marriott Center will have more to do with a young Utah roster showing it can win in multitude of ways — something that is ever important as the Utes eye a run in March.
