(2) Utah 52, (4) San Diego State 50
No. 2 Utah out-slugged No. 4 San Diego State 52-50 in a defensive battle that gave the Utes a Mountain West title. San Diego State must wait less than 24 hours to find out if its run through the conference tournament, with wins against UNLV and BYU, is enough to give the Aztecs an at-large bid. Shaun Green stole the ball for Utah on San Diego State’s last possession to ensure that the Aztecs did not get off a potentially game-winning shot. Luke Nevill led the Utes with 18 points.
