He’s a busy man, but I love how he references the home BYU game like it was a while ago when it was literally just last week

Give me this win because I think ISU started finding some things late in that game that have led to some growth and they didn't finish.
Anything after that is icing.
We had trouble with BYU killing us from behind the arc last year when we played out west. I think we took extra effort to cover the three point line when we played them on senior night this year. That could have led to some of the discrepancy in the rebounding in that game. If we have the man power to cover their threes today, or they have a cold day shooting, I think the good guys will prevail.
it really was - it was BYU's best rebounding game of the year and our worst. Jackson & Jefferson both played much better yesterday - if they play like that again today, Keita will be handled and we will win.
My prediction is that Lipsey AND Gilbert don't play. And we win.
This was “against the spread”, but your question repurposed isn’t a bad one. A line must have been set at +\- 1.
Really hoping for a Friday game next week, rather than Thursday, to give more time for healing/resting up. Has anyone looked at the possibilities of that occurring, pending the site we get sent to?
The thing that really impressed me about BYU was how good they were situationally. They killed us out of timeouts, I think they ran a play for Saunders every single time and got good looks. They also subbed like an NBA team, lots of offense/defense types of things. It would be nice to see us match some of that.
I know its kind of a dead horse but if we have someone who can't go bc of injury, giving Watson a shot at guarding Saunders in some of those situations might be worth a try. Our other guards/wings just aren't great matchups for him.

Was wondering this too. Said he was going to jump on like an hour after the postgame show yesterday for an injury update but never did. Been checking all morning and nothing.
