It appears that | 8:31 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

BYU is a legitimate team and they are really fun to watch. I don't know how far they can go but should do well in the MWC. Being able to finish on the road is something that will worry other teams in the conference.

Cougs are gonna knock off Wake--by 10.
This is the year we win a couple in the Tourney!!
Go Cougs!

Nice Save | 8:36 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

Got to watch that game ending slide. Let's pick it up at the end of games. Go Cougars. Get after Wake Forrest.

Alpine Blue | 8:41 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

Sweet win on the road in a tough venue. Should go a long way to get this team ready to win on the road in conference play.

If this team is going to be more than "one and done" in the post season, they really need to develop a killer instinct and to put away teams late in the second half.

We will find out more on Saturday when a tough Wake Forest team comes to town. Are they for real or only pretenders on the national scene?

Impressive | 8:39 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

This road win is impressive.

The ultimate test for BYU, however, is to go to UNLV and win (or at least keep it close).

If they can't do that, no MWC Tourney Championship.

Road | 9:04 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

That was a nice road win for the cougars over a decent team in Tulsa. This is the most balanced BYU team in several years but their is still some heavy lifting left with WF.

Coug 4 | 9:13 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

Great win Cougs! Let's get excited now for WF! Take it to 'em baby.

Forget all these what if posts, and other tests...stupid fans or anti-fans. Just go Baby!

Go Cougs... | 9:27 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

Utah can have football this year since we have had basketball and football the last few years, but once again byu is clearly th best in state team in basketball

Hoosier Coug | 9:26 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

Good road win for a better-than-expected team.

To the Rebel troll that continuously attempts to remind us that UNLV has the best team in the MWC, can we finally say that BYU is playing the best basketball going into conference play?

The biggest thing to bring away from the last two games, as others have mentioned, is BYU needs to learn how to close the games out.

Keith Suds..... | 9:47 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

Rose and the boys have to learn how to execute down the stretch and be aware of the point differentials and the clock. I'm glad they held on cuz they almost gave it to Tulsa. Good road win fellas! WAKE up! Time for some Suds.....

RR | 9:53 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

Amen to Go Cougs! USU struggled a lot vs. a winless baptist team at home and Utah has many struggles. BYU should be undefeated and they look great. Wake doesn't have much road experience and BYU doesn't have this long streak over a bunch of nobody's. Can't wait for the game on Saturday! Beating an undefeated #6 team will be great for the team.

Watch out Wake | 9:58 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

Way to go Cougs. I was at the Marriott Center today and one fellow came up and purchased 24 tickets. They were going fast. It will be a sellout and the MC will be rocking as it used to do in the days of Cosic and Ainge.

Optimist Prime | 10:04 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

Hopefully the BYU mens team can fare better then the womens team against top competition.

Keep it under a 40 point blowout and I think its a moral victory for BYU basketball.

Aggies | 10:08 p.m. Dec. 30, 2008

Closing in on a 100 points in college basketball is hardly struggling in my opinion.

looney11 | 12:30 a.m. Dec. 31, 2008

Next year, lets have the whole basketball team talk to the football team and talk about hussle, desire to win, never say die attitude and hussle. Maybe the they could add some of that to their schedule and finish a whole lot stronger.

Y fan since 1955 | 6:01 a.m. Dec. 31, 2008

A gritty win on the road......

As to the Wake Forrest game, I remember a game in the old Smith Field House when #2 St. Joesephs came to town (1966). Nemelka (spelling), Congdon, Roberts, Raymond, et al, put a whoopin on those boys, winning 100 - 80. Then went on to win the NIT while Utah went to the final four....also the year a little Texas Western (UTEP now) team coached by Don Haskins won the NCAA Championship. As Sinatra would say: It was a very good year.

Cougar in Sandy | 6:08 a.m. Dec. 31, 2008

Nice road win - need to keep working a little more at the last stretch. I am glad I got my lower bowl tickets to the shake the WAKE! Cougars will ROCK. Go Cougars!

Black Knight | 7:02 a.m. Dec. 31, 2008

Memphis is NOT the defending national champion. Kansas defeated Memphis last April in the NCAA championship game. GO COUGARS! Beat Wake Forest and then follow it up with another MWC championship.

Fredette,
I've got an idea that if you decided to be agressive all the time there would be no stopping you. You have an amazing ability to push the ball up the court. It is fun to watch you play!
