BYU takes down Baylor

Good win for Pope. BYU is 2-5 on the road this year and 3 of their last 5 games are on the road. All 3 tough games. Hope he can keep winning.
 
They also just lost to 10 win ok state on the road. That just puts UKs win at auburn into even bigger perspective as far as how impressive it is.

Now if UK could just start beating good teams at Rupp again.
 
They do play good defense, and actually guard the the perimeter shooters not just running at them from ten feet away. Saw the same thing in the Uconn and Creighton game.

BYU is well coached.
So is Baylor.
Game broke Baylor’s way.
Boy, BYU scrapped, hustled, clawed and fought. They will shoot a three on your ass.
Fun game to watch.
 
Why?he's a good coach.
He's the perfect Barnhart hire. Easy for Mitch to defend and win most of the time. He's too much of a mayonnaise type of hire. I don't think he can recruit with the other blueblood coaches ... too boring. UK is NOT boring. Perfect type of hire for Barnhart though so he can relax into his retirement years.

BYU has had a surprising season so far. They only won 19 games last year in a weak WCC. They still can't win on the road, but have held serve (mostly) at home. Kenpom loves BYU this year. I'm hoping they can finish strong, they still have road trips to Kansas and Iowa St.
 
BYU is solid but we would still beat them. I watched their big man, he can shoot but we would run him ragged.
He averages 6 points per game and plays right at 20 minutes per game. He averages making 1 3FG per game. Last night he was 4/6. Not a great shooter. Only shots 44% from the field (not 3 %) and is a 58% free throw shooter. He was the guy who plays UK and not known for his 3 point shooting then goes out and hits 4/6 and more than doubles his per game point average.
