      Seriously. Let's go a season without blowing a game to San Diego/Portland/Loyola Marymount before we start counting our bracket chickens. I realize that was a Dave Rose special, but the loss to Utah already tells me that potential exists within this team as well.

      There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

        It's like I'm reading my own thoughts. That uofutah loss still sits out there as a harbinger of dissapointment. Let me see them handle the rest of the league outside of St. Marys and Gonzaga and I will feel a lot better.
        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."

            Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                Oh so they really are the 6th or 11th seeds in the tournament?

                  Yes they really are currently projected for those seeds.

                  • One of the ugliest halfs of ball I’ve seen in a long time. 24-19 at the half for the Cougs. Gag.

                    Cougs are missing dunks, layups, threes, everything. Shooting 21% from 3, at 3-14. The only saving grace is that LMU is shooting 20% from, 2-10.

                      • BYU found their shot, LMU did not, and the Cougars are now up by 25.

                        • It was tough for the Cougs to hold opponents to under 38 points per half over the last few seasons. I'm not sure anyone is really showing out is flashy ways, but every shot is being contested. Even Haws' effort has improved. The Achilles heel of this team is rebounding. Against size, I think we'll struggle.

                          • Interestingly, SMC lost to Pacific in 4OTs on Saturday. I suspect Randy Bennett will have his team really fired up for the game on Thursday. In my opinion, the game Thursday is basically for 2nd place in the conference and an NCAA tourney spot even though it's only the second game of the conference season.

                              Pretty much.

                                Barcello's defense on Ford will be the key. I don't think they can hurt us on the offensive boards. I like BYU- I think the rankings underrate BYU, with Yoeli, a bit.

                                I am a believer that this club is between Jimmer's junior year and senior year BYU clubs.
