BYU Basketball 25-26: The AJ Season

[SteelBlue]

I'm guessing BYU makes the tourney no matter what. So, at least the precipitous drop in seeding will ensure they get taken out by a good team rather than getting bounced by a mid-major which I'm 100% convinced would happen if that were the matchup.

This team is depressing. KY needs to make some big changes in coaching strategy and assistant coaches. This NBA style is not effective at all

He can't change from the NBA style though. That is his pitch to get recruits. They are competitive with NIL and can match, but they offer a better NBA training ground than other schools.

[Joe Public]

Ice cold on offense so far.

[BigFatMeanie]

Tech shooting 50% overall and 67% (6/9) from 3.

[BigFatMeanie]

I don’t know what their rank is but BYU has got to have some of the worst 3 point defense in the country.

EDIT: A little googling tells me they’re ranked 119

[BigFatMeanie]

I like the defensive intensity compared to recent games. Tech made some tough shots, way behind the arc with the shot clock expiring.

[Joe Public]

Stay at it, fellas.

[PaloAltoCougar]

Keita looking like last year. And the D has really stepped up,

[Joe Public]

Keep it up!

[BigFatMeanie]

Great Top 10 win after a very rough patch!

[Joe Public]

Keep it going, Cougars! AJ is scoring almost at will right now.

I'm not convinced we're in the tournament yet with the way we played down the stretch. We might have to beat Houston.


Just kidding. Trying out my cougarboard knee-jerk overreactor with WCC PTSD mode. AKA, Archaea.

It was just KState yesterday but it was good to see them eventually become too much for the cats to stay with them at the end.They will have to play some better defense today but WVU is also one they can beat. Of all their recent woes, WVU was one on the road where we did play better. I think after just one game that the team with the bye often is not at an advantage. We'll see.

WVU absolutely insisting on gifting BYU this game, and BYU steadfastly refusing to accept it.
