BYU vs Arizona thread

CBS College Sports is streaming it.

Is there a way to watch a replay of the game on CBS College Sports? I looked and came up empty.

One of his shots was an NBA three not in rythm. He picked up a loose ball and threw it blindly over his head for some odd reason.

He was not good and I have long been a JT defender.

I have always liked JT's joie de vivre on the court and have also been a defender, but he did make some bizarre plays tonight (the two you mentioned were the most noticeable). He needs to get his head into the game sometimes, which he did not seem to do tonight. But Jimmer; oh my word.

JT is having a crisis of confidence, it seems. Even if JT only makes a third of his 3-pointers I will defend him because that's the equivalent of 50% from 2-point range (on points per shot) and also opens up the rest of the court for the other guys. But JT has been turning it over way too much, and taking low-percentage 2-point fall-away shots this season. He's just not contributing like he should.

He is playing scared -- it's really too bad because he could contribute on this team if he could get his confidence back without turning the ball over and casting off as many bad shots.

What a great game tonight for Jimmer -- I almost forgot about it and remembered just in time. Glad I did.

For those who don't waste enough time reading CUF, here is a thread on the AZ board during the game (there weren't a lot of posters but the few they have are quite prolific).

Here is a great quote for someone's signature.

Easily the best individual effort by a BYU basketball player I've ever seen. Miles was on fire.

[OhioBlue]

crap crap crap. I set the dvr, left for a family dinner, came back and found I don't get that channel after all.

Please oh please someone tell me someone with a channel I can watch is going to rebroadcast this game (read someone other than Fox Sports).

99-69?? Jimmer with 49?!? I think I'm gonna cry or be sick. Freakin' FCS.

Just talked about BYU on ESPN. Showed highlights and talked about Freddette for King of the Night. Said he isn't because Cutler is, but he's the King of Utah!

Yeah, I just watched that segment too. I was going to post about it, but you beat me to it. Nice props for Jimmer.

[Jeff Lebowski]

Dang it. One of the only games this year that I didn't watch (friends) in town and was unable to record.

I watched the score updates on my phone, but had no idea what Jimmer was doing. Unbelievable.

I would love to see a replay if anyone finds one.

JT wasn't as terrible as some have made it sound. He only had 2 TO in 22 minutes, he was smart enough to let Jimmer shoot prudent with his shot selection 1 for 2 and contributed with 5 boards and 2 assists. Granted JT is meant to be a role player like Harstock, but at least he wasn't killing possessions jacking up 19 foot off-balance jumpers.

JT is awful. I was a JT defender for a long time but no longer. He's terrible. We're a much better team without him on the floor. Twice last week he got the ball on defense either with a steal or picking up a loose ball and takes a couple dribbles and bounce passes an outlet pass 30 feet ahead of him. Both times the pass ended up well behind the lead guy stopping the fast break. He's just an idiot. That pass last night, I'm glad I'm not Coach Rose. There would have been a Bobby Knight style choking incident.

It's the same reason he steps back to take 30 footers 5 seconds into the clock and why he fades away from twenty feet rather than leaning in from 15 feet -- he's looking for style points. I honestly feel bad for him, because his confidence has to be shot, and it's only going to get worse when the fans start booing him at home.
