BYU vs Wofford thread

[LiveCoug]

We have one common opponent. We thumped AFA twice and Wofford lost at home to AFA in overtime. I like our chances.

I have a friend from grad school who went to Wofford. I'll have to tease him some.

Wofford has one 6'6" stud and I think Charles will have to shut him down.

I really like our side of the bracket. We match up well with St. Johns and Gonzaga. Also Florida, UCLA and Mich. State are all beatable. I am happy with our draw.

Looked it up-- Noah Dahlman is the guy BYU will need to shut down.

I agree with CJ. Very favorable bracket. The way Florida and Kentucky were seeded makes no sense to me except to put Florida in Tampa.

Wofford is from my neck of the woods. They're about to get Jimmered.

Wofford is a pretty good team, especially for a 14. They almost took out Wisconsin in last years tournament. We should take care of business, but we will need to shoot better than last night (on wide open shots).

If BYU had to play this game tonight, even putting aside the Sabbath issues, I'd have serious concerns about the outcome. But give this team a few days rest and Rose a chance to prepare the team, my confidence level is very high. Has game time been announced yet?

It wasn't the same Wofford. The Terriers are streaking (8 straight wins) and BYU is fading. This is my Round 1 upset special.

Seems to me the bottom line for this game and the tourney at large is the shooting slump. Break out of it and we could make a run in toss bracket. Keep shooting 30% and I don't even think this game is a gimme.

Wofford fans are confident, but pissed about traveling to Denver.

I'm glad someone from the East Coast is about to get Jimmered.

You're obviously very impressed with the Southern Conference, of which I am ignorant. Wofford was 5-8 heading into conference play. Their last pre-conference game was a loss at home to Cornell, which achieved a losing record in the Ivy League.

Edit: It appears the Cornell loss was at a neutral location. That changes everything.

Well, I am sure you can draw on your several viewings of Wofford games to make this prediction. That's what I like about you well founded opinions based upon objective and subjective criteria, no room for hyperbole; just like your mentor Mark E. Peterson.

And you're giving it away free? What the 1-800 number?

How do you pronounce their name?

Is it WAHferd or WOEferd?

I hope it is WOEferd because I want to refer to them as Woeful all week. It will drive their fans crazy!
