Haven't watched them at all this year.

So far I've seen that we're either going to kill them on the boards or they're going to kill us with that hot-shooting Mormon who has two 40+ games this year.

let's just hope the gatorcats and the mighty 24% can take them out.

White 24 year olds who might have once knocked on your door or started a conversation on a bicycle.

Not as good as thw numbers indicate. They play hard for 40 minutes. We'll be okay since we play hard for 35+.

BYU has lost to UNLV twice this season if that means anything.

We shot out of our minds vs. UNLV.

unlv won twice because they had really high efgs. didn't get to the line, didn't oboard, didn't force turnovers.

SleepFighter · « **Reply #11 on:** March 14, 2010, 06:33:28 PM »

Watched them play NM St the other day. I think we can Oboard the eff out of them.

yep. this is payback for everyone yelling at chings for having byu so high. maybe mario smith will come out of the crowd and drill that f'ing mormon guard who's good.

so why hasn't anyone been able to do so all year long?

look at the games kstate has played against good dboarding teams. in most of them, they've stayed closer to their dboarding average than kstate has to its oboarding average.

Warm up allowing African Americans into the priesthood as of 1978 your racist fuckers

makes me feel a little better. other than sdsu (and unm a little), mwc teams clearly don't prioritize oboarding. so byu's numbers have to be a little inflated in that regard.

dude, we got mumped on the draw. plus gpc idiots are happy about it! makes it much worse.

bradleigh · « **Reply #20 on:** March 14, 2010, 07:26:37 PM »

I think the mathematical rankings might have BYU too high. They've really cleaned up on some mediocre competition. Big blowouts that can possible skew the numbers.

Cire · « **Reply #21 on:** March 14, 2010, 07:44:07 PM »

this sucks. maybe byu will be our 1 tough close game and pitt will lose.

I think this fact, above any kenpom #'s makes this game a 10 on the catzacker pessimistic scale. that's if we don't get Hampton'd.

Explained in the goEMAW podcast #2 IIRC.

Losing to BYU would be a total disaster and, thus, not worth worrying about.
