Utah got revenge for being ousted in the first round of the Mountain West Tournament last season by the Rams, who were winless in conference play, as it destroyed Colorado State 74-48 on Saturday afternoon.

Following Friday's parade celebrating the Utah football team's 13-0 season and BCS-busting Sugar Bowl victory Jan. 2, thousands of Utah fans turned Washington Square into a sea of red, tossing fistfuls of sugar and chanting, "We're number one!"

The Utes, who trained about 40 hours a week while they were in Mexico, swam two back-to-back meets on Jan. 9 and 10 against Texas Christian and Northern Texas, before facing conference foes Colorado State and New Mexico on Thursday and Saturday.

Roderick, who was rumored to being courted by Washington, announced later on Saturday, that he was indeed joining the Huskies' coaching staff as the wide receivers coach. This was after an official press release and several news stories announced his co-coordinator position at Utah.

Co-coordinators. That's the direction the U football team's offense has taken as Whittingham promoted both Andy Roderick and Dave Schramm to the post for next season.

The Red Rocks will leave Salt Lake City on Saturday morning to make the cross-country trip to Athens, Ga., the site of last year's national championships.

Too often, the world we live in is a thankless mess and the things we perceive as legacy are forgotten quicker than a college football fan can cry "playoff."

Upsets aren't unheard of in college hoops, especially during the postseason. But for a team as good as the Utes were last year, to be upset by arguably the worst team in the conference, a team that had only won four games total, is mind-blowing.

Those wishing to participate are asked to wear their MUSS shirts and meet at the staging area today on South Temple and State Street no later than 2:30 p.m.

The Utah women's swimming and diving team had a rough weekend in Texas last week and won't be getting any breaks as they head to Colorado State for what promises to be another tough meet.
