Huskies and Cougars Both Lose On the Road

The Washington Huskies basketball team lost on the road at Utah on Thursday night 67-66. They have lost four of their last five games by a total of 13 points. All four of the losses they could have or should have won the games.

This game again the Huskies were leading most of the way until the last five minutes. The referring was terrible not helping the Huskies out at all. They called fouls on the Huskies that should have gone the other way. It didn't help Washington was charged for a technical foul and Utah was able to convert their free throws.

The Huskies were led by Jaden McDaniels with 14 points, however, he fouled out late in the game not helping matters along with Hameir Wright who had a good offensive night with 13 points. Isaiah Stewart the Huskies leading scorer on the season had 13 points too.

The Huskies now will face Colorado on Saturday who beat Washington State Cougars Thursday night. It won't be an easy game for the Huskies to win though it is a must-win for the Huskies to have any chance to win the Pac-12 title.

Colorado blew out the Cougars winning 78-56. Colorado beat the Huskies despite missing forward Tyler Bey the leading rebounder in the Pac-12. He is the cousin of Washington's Jamel Bey. He sat the night on the bench with a bandage on his hand.  Colorado is hoping to have Bey back on Saturday against the Huskies.
