It's not that big of a deal. BYU is playing very well right now and they will wipe out UVU at home. Then they already know they can play with Stanford. The players admitted they were a little intimidated in the first half of that game but something clicked in the last 20 minutes and they realized they could play with them. I believe a couple of shots hit the post or the crossbar and we came really close at least to tying it. They've been there already and won't be intimidated.
I'm also ok with BYU going into this feeling like they have something to prove. Ashley Hatch is back and Nadia Gomes is now mentally confident and playing up to the level of her considerable athletic talent, unlike when they went into Stanford the first time. BYU has a very balanced deep team, and when they're all playing well as in the last couple of weeks, they can play with anyone.
