BYU basketball: Cougars bombard Rice with 3s

That's right. Utes beat SEC teams while Cougars keep up their woosie nobody schedule, who wouldn't win 50 in a row with weak scheduling like that. Who'd they beat tonight, a food?

Atleast the BYU football team has to play a REAL team in football tommorrow when they face a top 7, undefeated team that has already beat two nationally ranked teams.

Utes will destroy the Kittens tommorrow and beat them in BBall three times this year.

Although they have looked good thus far-has the competition been that bad or are the Cougs that good?

Love how they are meshing nicely into an unselfish unit with everyone getting a lot of PT.

This depth will pay off during the grind of the MWC season and tournament.

SW Baptist is in the SEC?

Uhhhhh.....what?

Utah vs. Southwest Baptist? (a loss)
Utah vs. Green Bay? (Not the football team).
Utah vs. Mississippi? Yes from the SEC but a power team from the SEC? Hardly.

Good luck against who? Morgan State? Today.

Let's not get too puffed up with your own patsy schedule. Pay attention to your own team before you cast doubts at BYU. Your recent record against the Cougs would suggest you need to pause for some silence on that account.

The yewts must be good, after all they beat Southwest Baptist. Oh wait, no they lost to them. At home.

Wow,Playing Foods, I missed Southern Baptist being accepted into the SEC. Can you give us more details. At least Green Bay was accepted as well so the SEC is still an even number of teams.

Quit talking until league, especially with your wonderful result to Southern Baptist and don't say it was just an exhibition, no way you guys tank one because it is an 'exhibition'.

Ya, yewts may have beat old miss, but look who the yewts have lost to, just like last year, they'll beat 1 or 2 teams they shouldn't have, but they'll lose about 12-19 games they should or could have won...sorry yewts, but COUGS are going to roll over you 3 times this year-once in the tourney as well.

This is dangerous for the Cougars. Any team that can play some sort of perimeter defense will shut this team down. Chris Miles is bad. Very tentative. He either travels or cant make a lay-up.
And to the poster from 1:10 a.m.: of course you get a lot of PT when you're up by 20. Play someone decent and you will see how deep your Cougars really are.

Um, actually the Utes lose at home to a Division II Baptist school!!

You are kidding right?!?

Two words for you: Southwest Baptist

Hey Playing Foods: Wow, I didn't know that Southwest Baptist was in the SEC. Impressive Utah victory over that SEC basketball powerhouse! That obviously was a victory, wasn't it?

Yewts lost to the Baptists.

They just need to stop scheduling any school related to a religion.

For further info see yewts vs. BYU 2006, 2007.

I feel so sorry for the jealous Ute fans who have nothing to do but come to our basketball stories to vent their frustrations and inferiority complexes.

And wasn't this about basketball?

Re Playing Foods: Did I miss something? At least BYU wins their games with "woosies". Who was that that your mighty Utes lost to in their first game? You've got to be kidding. Get a life!

Here are a few words to shut up Yewt fans...Southwest Baptist. You lost to these guys!!! You have lost the right to talk smack for one entire year. Come back again next year. Love,
The school who is more dominant in every area year in and year out. GO COUGARS!

who did utah lose to again? oh yeah my church ball team the southern baptist!

I'm surprised you're able to maintain such a, shall we say, confident (arrogant is probably the better word) attitude after the Utes were handily beaten by....what was the name of that school again, Southwest Baptist College (or was it Southwest Baptist Prep School?)

I'm sure today's football game will be interesting, but the basketball team probably won't be affected by it either way.

And, just because UMiss is from the SEC doesn't mean they're all that great. They probably won't make the NCAA Tournament.

Oh, and good luck tonight against perennial powerhouse Morgan State. :)

Cougars have a very strong squad again this year that can shoot the lights out, in spite of losing some of their key players from last year. I think the Utes will have another "rebuilding" year. We'll check back on your Utes 3-0 vs. Cougars prediction at the end of the year.

Here's to a great game today with minimal fighting in the stands. Come on Ute fans, you can do it. Be classy!

Southwestern Baptist - whoever they are - enough said!!

I didn't realize that Southwest Baptist college was in the SEC?
