Show wmm .........¦fffffTIlmm- r ^^iThe screen at the end of the court stopped many plays in a hurry.After Denver game, team jells into permanent unit.Frosty Cox brought his Montana Grizzlies to town for the Conference opener, he showed that he wasn't here for a track meet. The game's pace was slowed to a walk, and, with the help of some fancy shooting by guard Dan Balko, the Grizzlies walked off the floor with a six point halftime lead. It looked like Duke all over again. But Ute coach Jack Gardner inserted speedy Bill Cowan into the lineup and the Redskins were running again, as he and Joe Morton picked up enough stolen passes to turn Frosty's dream into a nightmare. Utah won going away, 78-62. Then a fired-up bunch of Farmers from Utah State, still smarting from last year's come-from-behind Utah victory, and using Montana's tactics, refused to crack in the second half as they coasted to a 73-61 upset victory. This victory shot the Aggies to a deserving spot in the Nation's top ten and marked the first time in many a year that two Utah teams had occupied such high placesCarney Crisler puts his height to work and effectively blocks a shot.Ron Bouck, Utah's clowning cheerleader, puts on his rigor mortis act.OTJThe ref is bound to have something to say about this mess. |
