BYU tipoff changed to 8PM

[bluestarcyclone]

I am guarded, I've been hurt. Who among us that has been a fan for long enough hasn't though?

Of course.

At the same time, sometimes teams simply have an above average (or well above average) game and you have to tip the cap to it. And BYU's performance against us was their high water mark of conference season.

I'd guess more often than not, the next time out it reverts more towards the mean.

Last game of the year.
Students: fill it up!

And get there early to pay homage to a bunch of hardworking seniors.

I believe their high water mark was the win at KU. They came back late in the second half.

I was basing it on this:

Though KU is certainly one of their bigger ones.

Being an emotionally invested sports fan means you’re gonna feel pain. In fact you’re gonna feel it almost every year because championships are statistically very improbable. That’s why almost every sports fan thinks their team is “cursed”. I didn’t understand that for a long time. The best thing to do is to embrace all of the emotions as part of the fun. Easier said than done. Some call that reaching “enlightenment”. Haha.

Super soakers. Still funny.

Byu game scares me with the way we've been playing of late. If they're hitting shots and we play the way we've been trending offensively, they may blow us out in Hilton

Don’t think BYU will blow us out in Hilton.

Where is the Vegas spead currently at?

Hope it's a tight stressful game in the final moments.

If it's one thing I love, it's being too jacked up over a basketball game when I'm trying to sleep.

Let’s win out obviously, but if we somehow split these last two, give me the BYU win for so many reasons. Main one is to finish unbeaten at home this year.

But let’s just win both.

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

I want an undefeated home season. Last one was 00-01.

 

[NWICY]

Has anyone seen any other source for this time/TV change? Both cyclones.com and ESPN are still showing 7pm central on ESPN+.

Cyclones.com is now changed.

I REALLY want this. I think TJ and the boys will be dialed in Wed nite. I don't think the BYU beat down out there has been forgotten. Hope the students show out.

Yes they can hit shots and have beaten good teams lately. But they're also 3-2 last five with their two losses to KSU and OSU.

But they are 2-0 in their last 2 with wins at KU and TCU at home where they have scored a combined 105 points in the second half.

I think the best thing the point out is, Lawrence aside, BYU hasn't been a great road team.

 

[Cardinal2001]

byu must be destroyed. avenge that loss!

I've been a fan for forty years, and I take it square to the balls like a man

 

[RezClone]

Yes but I don’t care about TV. I’m more worried about how an hour later tipoff will impact me getting a good soak in to celebrate the victory when I get home from the game…

I see what you did there

The humor in you typing this about a BYU game is not lost on me.

Go ahead and Google what soaking is lol.

Out here in Utah, I was picking up some egg McMuffins the other day. One of the girls behind the counter was apparently new to the state, and the other crew were explaining the concept of soaking to her, quite loudly.

One of the more interesting fast food pickups I’ve had lately.
