It wasn't easy, but Utah has another big win, another step toward respectability.
The Utes defeated Colorado 58-55 on Saturday at the Huntsman Center. On Rick Majerus day the former coach had his sweater retired Utah rebounded from the Stanford game with a stirring performance.
Jason Washburn led the way with 13 points and 11 rebounds. Jeremy Olsen had 12 points and Cedric Martin had 11.
Utah improves to 10-11 on the season with the victory.
