    Pretty sure the coaches soiled their trousers when AJ stayed down there. Yikes.

        Delaware shooting 53% from 3. Some of them made on the last few seconds of the shot clock. Crazy.

          RWIII is going to have to win this for us.

          BYU has a great collection of individual basketball players but doesn’t seem like a cohesive team yet.

                    Ii liked second half Richie more than first half Richie. One hopes they start better Saturday.

                      RWIII goes 26/9/9, and Richie found his three-pointer. Strong finish. We’ll see how they show up in Boston.

                          Props to Delaware for bringing their A+ game. If we had only played the first 30 minutes how we played the last 10...I also really don't ever want to watch another game on CBS Sports...
                          • I like KY being calm...but I also want to see him fired up at times
                          • We have no set offense and it really shows at times
                          • Ok, Wright can indeed shoot the 3
                          • We missed Davis Jr
                          • I saw some fire in AJ's eyes after his put back dunk, nice to see, but a little earlier would have been nice
                          Player of the Game awards
                          • Best PER: Robert Wright III - No surprise here. A 40.6 rating will be hard to beat. 26 points, 9 rebounds, and 9 assists! 5 offensive rebounds for the little guy?! Nice!
                          • Best GSc: Also Wright III
                          • Best TS%: Saunders - He finally got going in the second half. When he's on, he's on!
                          • Best ORtg: Baker - I have no idea how he got such a high score. The formula for this is super complicated and I'm just getting it off of BYU's site. I don't know how Wright didn't get it with his points, offensive rebounds, and assists.
                          • Best DRtg: Saunders - Nothing to really note here
                          Struggled to Perform awards
                          • Worst PER: Tyler Mrus - I guess he got Davis Jr's minutes and he didn't really take advantage. His shots looked rushed and he missed them all. Got a rebound and a steal (I think one that was deflected right to him) but nothing else.
                          • Worst GSc: Also Mrus
                          • Worst TS%: Myrus
                          • Worst ORtg/DRtg: Myrus - So who else do we have that can play this position?
                          Well, we eeked out a Q4 win. Hopefully this is a wake up call for the team. Next up is Uconn on a neutral court. They are #5 in Kenpom ranking.

                            Was Davis hurt?

                              Yeah, I don't recall if they said what the injury was, but they said he "should" be back for the UConn game.

                                Mrus has been a disappointment. Dude needs to start hitting some threes.

                                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."
