- UCF improved to 19-7 overall and 8-6 in Big 12 play, its second straight win after a three-game skid.
- Jordan Burks added 14 points as the Knights shot 53% from the field and 44% from three-point range.
- Utah fell to 10-17 (2-12) despite 21 points from Terrence Brown, 19 from Don McHenry, and a 15-point, 12-rebound double-double from Keanu Dawes.
- A late sequence featured McHenry’s tying three and three free throws around Burks’ go-ahead triple, and UCF next plays Monday at No. 23 BYU; no Big 12 team finishing above .500 since 2009 has missed the NCAA Tournament.
