Cardinal improves to 13-8 after 73-66 victory over Runnin' Utes SALT LAKE CITY — Alfonso Plummer couldn't be stopped in the opening minutes of the game. Utah started with a 14-4 run, and Plummer accounted for eight of those points to give the Utes a much-needed start on the back end of its Northern California road trip. And just as fast as Utah built up a 10-point lead, its largest of the night, it all stopped in an instant. Stanford reeled off a 23-4 run behind a dominant performance in the paint — Stanford outshot Utah 20-8 under the basket — and flipped the script on a Utah team that was looking for its fourth straight win and first back-to-back road wins in conference play this season.
