Stanford and Utah split the regular-season title after the Utes won Sunday in Salt Lake City, but the conference’s depth provides plenty of obstacles to a rematch.
Utah was a surprise finalist in the 2022 Pac-12 tournament, winning three games as a No. 6 seed before running out of gas against No. 1 seed and defending national champion Stanford.
It’s an easier road – Utah doesn’t play until the quarterfinals Thursday – but there’s also more pressure from the outset as the No. 2 seed with aspirations of a rubber game against No. 1 Stanford. “We know we have so many more games left so we want to just keep going, and we’re not done yet,” guard Gianna Kneepkens said after scoring 28 in Utah’s 84-78 win over Stanford last week.
“I think we can play a lot better,” Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer said. “We have some work to do. Our turnovers hurt us a lot , probably the most. Our lack of execution. They were the better team.”
