-Utah went 40-of-45 from the free throw line (88.9%) on the night. The Utes' 40 made free throws marks the second-most ever in a single game by a Utah team, second only to 44 vs. Stanford on Dec. 1, 1969, the first game ever played in Utah's current home, the Jon M. Huntsman Center.
-Utah started the game on a 7-0 run over the first 2:31. The Utes then began the second half on a 5-0 run that became a 15-4 streak across the first 4:54 of the frame. Utah never trailed in the game and led by as many as 19 with 6:21 remaining.
-Junior wing Will Clyburn scored a team-high 27 points on 6-of-9 from the field and 14-of-15 from the free throw line. He has now led the Utes in scoring in all three games this year, his first season of competition at the Div. I level. Clyburn has now scored 20 points in back-to-back games, including the 21-point effort he dropped on Montana last Wednesday.
-Clyburn also collected a career and game-high nine rebounds, leading the Utes on the boards for the second time in three career games. He also tied for the team lead in steals with two and has led the Utes in swipes in all three games this year.
-Junior center David Foster finished the game with four blocked shots, giving him 11 for the year and 131 for his career. Currently in third place on the all-time blocks list at Utah, Foster is chasing Mitch Smith, in second place with 157 blocks from 1985-89, and the career record of 205, held by Luke Nevill (2005-09).
-Foster has now blocked at least one shot in 31 of his last 32 games over the last two years and has blocked multiple shots in 27 of those contests.
