    Depends on who you ask.

      The officiating was horrendous. That doesn't excuse BYU's sloppy passing and terrible defense.

        The terrible defense was a direct result of the horrendous officiating, any resistance at all was called a foul.

          Partly, yes. But much of it was all on BYU's own accord. Not defending cutters, not stopping the ball, allowing post players to seal their defender and then, most atrocious of all is allowing Jones and open look at the 3 to tie it. Give them an easy two there, you have been doing it all game.

          • I hate games officiated like that - even if the light calls go both ways. Then at the end the refs completely blew the backcourt call and they allowed the utah player to jump and land on top of Seljaas as he was getting a pass from Toolson. You let that go after the way you have been calling the game up to that point?

                I'm still pissed about the Utah game. They are not forgiven yet.

                  Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                      • I am really really really liking Pope so far. Love the ball movement and the togetherness on defense. Better than I expected so far. It will be interesting to see how the conference goes and if we can avoid losing to the RPI 100+ teams and match up against St Mary’s. The zags are much more talented that us but St. Mary’s should not dominate us like they have.

                            • BYU's rankings right now:

                              KenPom: 42
                              ESPN BPI: 35
                              Sagarin: 37
                              RPI: 26

                              These are very good numbers, and way better than almost anyone would have expected from the team in mid-December. KenPom tends to respond the slowest to recent results. The NCAA NET rating which is what the committee primarily uses is not released yet, but it's supposedly most similar to BPI.

                                Kenpom might respond slower, but BYU jumped up 12 spots in kenpom from before the Nevada game.
