  • Take a Ride into the Danger Zone: Pilots vs. Cougars Game Thread

    Like normal, I have a bad feeling about this game. Go Cougs!

    It's a dangerous game. Good opponent but not a name opponent that will draw a crowd. Haws is hobbled. Saturday - Monday turnaround means game prep may be lacking a bit. This is a team we should beat at the MC but it's not going to be easy.

      Am I the only one who believes BYU basketball coaches work on the Sabbath to prepare on Sat/Mon games? They'd be pious idiots not to, right?

        Didn't we used to have a policy of no Monday games, because it would conflict with FHE? When did that change?

          We played Monday games all the time when we were in the MWC. So if that policy ever existed, it was pre-MWC.

            Partial inclusion into a lesser conference has its perks.

              It seems like there was something about the game having to start later so as to avoid conflict with FHE - thus the big Monday 10 pm starts.

                Was that official, or was that just fan speculation? It seemed like that was more the result of taking a back seat to the 6pm Big East or ACC game and a 8:00pm Big 12 or Big 10 game.

                  I thought there was something official, but it could just as easily have been a myth.

                    So what do we know about these Pilots? Anyone seen them play yet?

                      No but I'm hoping my boy goes off (and by "goes off" he has 10 and 8). #Kafusigetloosey

                          Just looking at realtimerpi.com, looks like Portland's the third-best rated opponent (106) remaining on our schedule after Gonzaga (4) and St. Mary's (88). Portland could theoretically improve to top 100 over the remainder of the season. Don't see that as possible for the rest of the conference - San Diego (167), Pacific (173), everyone else (200+).

                          BYU's quality wins to date:

                          Stanford 44
                          UMass 69
                          Long Beach State 74

                          Bad loss(es) to date:

                          Purdue 148

                          Portland's quality win(s) to date:

                          Murray State 76

                          Bad loss(es) to date:

                          Oregon State 169
