BYU, Weber State basketball: Cougars shoot down Wildcats
72 comments | Read story
"BYU jumped out to a 15-4 lead behind eight points by Cummard a Miles dunk and 3-pointers by Freddette and Jackson Emery" That actually adds up to 16 points... I'm just saying.
BYU is playing well, but still has a lot of room for improvement. Utah State should be a much tougher test.
With a good showing in conference, a top two or three in MWC finish, and a 20+ win season, the Cougars have enough strength in their schedule to have a good shot at another NCAA bid.
See you in Salt Lake you scardy cats.
Go Aggies!
All I'm saying is that any talk of domination in basketball makes the individual making the claims look pretty foolish once you look at the record.
Your basketball team might be good this year but when was the last time you guys did anything in the tourney? Never? Lately Weber State gets invited to the Big Dance more than you fools.
For definition of joke, see mirror.
Go Cougs. Yeah. Go Baby. Go Cougs. AHHHHH!
What am I missing?
In 1996-1997 BYU had its worst season ever, going 1-25. The Cougars' only win that season?
Over Utah State, 64-61, in the Marriott Center.
Don't kid yourself, Utah State is just as scared of playing BYU in the Marriott Center as BYU is of playing Utah State in The Spectrum.
This isn't grade school. Playing the "chicken" card won't accomplish anything.
BYU officials made a mistake in giving Utah State an extra basketball home game to compensate for Utah State dropping a scheduled football game with BYU. Rose wasn't thrilled about it and objected. No compromise could be reached to satisfy all parties, which is why there was no men's basketball game between BYU and Utah State last season.
Cooler heads prevailed for this season and this year's game at ESA was the compromise to get the series going again.
At least three times through the MWC, which is tougher than three times through the WAC, plus:
Boise State
Tulsa
San Jose State
Utah State
Oral Roberts
Seton Hall
Loyola Marymount
(Loyola Marymount, btw, was the last team to beat BYU in the Marriott Center on November 18, 2005, the first BYU home game of the 2005-2006 season)
