Utah basketball's 2025-26 team suffered a disappointing first half in a game against Colorado, leading to a 51-25 deficit at halftime. The loss, which came just three days after a 40-point loss to No. 5 Houston, was seen as a significant setback for the Colorado team. Utah's first-year coach, Alex Jensen, called for better performance from his team and the fans. The team eventually woke up in the second half but could only manage a nine-point lead over the final 20 minutes. This loss left Utah below.500 at home on the year, marking its first losing season at home since 2021-22.
