The evidence of improvement is finally on paper.

For seemingly the entire season, Larry Krystkowiak has extolled the virtues of patience with his fans and told media that his team is getting better by the practice.

We now have proof.

Utah dominated No. 19 Oregon on Saturday afternoon 72-62 at the Huntsman Center before a raucous senior day crowd of 11,628.

The win gives the Utes consecutive Pac-12 victories for the first time. It clinches the No. 10 seed for Utah in the upcoming conference tournament as well.

Jason Washburn led the way with 20 points. Jarred DuBois had 15 points, while Brandon Taylor and Jordan Loveridge had 14 points each.
