    New Mexico looks awful, just awful. Do you think it's been due to Utah's improved play or is this just a suspect Lobo squad? (I've only watched about 5 min)

      Okay, now back to the updates on Alford's appearance. Give us more!
      I think Jimmer's influence has inspired the LDS guys on the Ute team to live right on and off the basketball floor, and that is probably the difference.

        JJ Obrien is killing them. I don't know what that means.

        Also, Glover has found his stroke. I think even he's surprised.

          Probably? Time to hand in your Mullah card.
          Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

          For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

          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."

            Glover's hitting shots? It has to be the altered zodiac.

              I only saw the first half (waiting to start some work). O'brien getting points from lay-ups and put backs. Glover hitting from beyond the arc. UNM missing shots with Foster showing some intestinal fortitude in the paint on both ends of the court.

                Did they just call him Will "The Thrill" Clyburn? That is an absolute effing abomination and insult the greatest best player to ever wear the number 22. I demand the Utes cease and desist.

                  Chris Kupets has a block U shaved in his hair, just above the neck line.

                  Has it really come to this?

                    Was it the Utah announcer of the MTN announcer? If the latter I wouldn't take much of what they say seriously. Glover hit a 3 with 1 second on the shot clock and the comment was "That was Jimmeresque" when he was clearly only inches beyond the arc.

                        When it comes to divine intervention in sports, my testimony is still weak. Be gentle with me.

                          Alford is as bored as Jake Heaps at a mission prep class.

                              His assistant is animated though. Looks a bit like Alan Alda.

                              That is not a compliment.

                                It was that bastard Tony Parks the Utes announcer. (How sad is it that I can not only hear the Ute announcer very clearly on the broadcast but I can hear every word Boylen is yelling to his team).
