Men's Basketball Opens Homestand with Baylor Saturday Afternoon
1/24/2025 11:22 AM | Men's Basketball
The Utah men’s basketball team hosts #RV/RV Baylor for the first time since 1960 this Saturday, Jan. 25, at 2:30 p.m. (MST) on ESPN2.
SALT LAKE CITY – The Utah men's basketball team looks to split its season series against #RV/RV Baylor this Saturday, Jan. 25, when it hosts the Bears for the first time since Dec. 9, 1960, when the two battled it out inside Nielson Fieldhouse.
Dave Flemming will have the call on ESPN2 alongside former UCLA Bruin Sean Farnham inside the Jon M. Huntsman Center as Utah looks to get back on the win column to start the two-game homestand.
PROTECT THIS HOUSE
The Utes have protected their home court well the last three seasons, winning at least 10 games at home and have won 10-plus in 3-of-4 seasons under the direction of head coach Craig Smith. The 2024-25 squad won 17 games in the Jon M. Huntsman Center last season – the most since the 2013-14 team went 18-2.
MEMORY OF A GOLD FISH
The Runnin' Utes look to learn and move on from its last game where it was bounced by #7/5 Houston, 70-36, on the road (Jan. 22). The 36 points scored by Utah is the second lowest total in a game from 1980 on and was just shy of the lowest mark since 1980 when it opened Pac-12 play at Colorado with a 73-33 loss.
UP NEXT
Utah wraps up its short homestand with #RV/-- Cincinnati on Tuesday, Jan. 28, inside the Jon M. Huntsman Center as the two square off for the first time since Dec. 28, 1965, an 84-66 affair in favor of the Bearcats in Cincinnati. However, Utah's lone win against UC came on New Year's Day in 1963, a 76-68 battle that went in favor of the Utes in SLC. Rich Waltz and Pete Gillen will call the action for fans on CBS Sports Network as the two programs duke it out for the first time as conference foes starting at 8 p.m. (MST). CBSSN channel for your area can be found here.
LOOKING AHEAD
The Runnin' Utes hit the road once again as they head to Stillwater, Okla., for the first time since Dec. 18, 1953, a game that went in favor of Oklahoma State 71-44. Utah got the best of the Cowboys in their first meeting as conference opponents 83-62 inside the Jon M. Huntsman Center – giving Utah first-ever win as a member of the Big 12 Conference. The two are slated to tip-off at 1 p.m. (MST) inside Gallagher-Iba Arena with James Westling and former Cowboy Bryndon Manzer calling the action on the ESPN+.
