The goal of every college basketball team in the nation to start the year is to make the NCAA Tournament and hopefully win a few games.  For some teams, making the tournament alone is not enough, but for most of the 347 schools, just making the tournament is considered a big success.  For BYU, making [...]

The season isn’t quite over for BYU, as BYU plays Mercer in the 2nd round of the NIT. If you don’t know what to expect out of the Mercer Bears, I’ve assembled some basic statistics to give you an idea. Mercer University – Macon, GA Mercer Bears – Atlantic Sun Conference (24-11, 14-4 A-Sun)    [...]

It has been a disappointing year for BYU basketball.  For most programs in the country, a 21-11 record would be classified as a great year, but this is not the case at BYU anymore. Dave Rose has done a great job turning around this program, which is proven by BYU’s streak of 6 straight years [...]

              This weekend BYU will participate in the West Coast Conference tournament in Las Vegas.  BYU must win the tournament if they want to play in the NCAA Tournament later this month as they have not done enough to be invited with an at-large berth. Almost all analysts and pundits have already written Gonzaga [...]

Tonight the number 2 ranked team in the land visits the Marriot Center in a game that will be aired on ESPN2.  This will be a historic night, as Gonzaga is the highest ranked team to ever play in Provo. If Gonzaga can get through this week unscathed, they will likely be ranked number 1 [...]

The arrival of the Gonzaga Bulldogs (27-2, 14-0) on Thursday in Provo, UT to face BYU holds more weight than you think. The Zags will enter the game as the second best team in the country with the possibility of being on the top of the polls on Monday if everything goes the way it [...]

Gonzaga comes into Provo on Thursday night the presumed top team in the country. That’s what happens when you’re number two, and the team ahead of you loses as Indiana did in Minnesota tonight. All the Bulldogs have to do is beat BYU, then go home to face Portland on Saturday, and not only will [...]

Interesting week. Saint Mary’s finished their sweep of BYU for this season and Gonzaga is finally getting the attention they’ve deserved for much of the season. The WCC at this point will get two bids to the tournament, which is disappointing but expected. Here is the latest and greatest of the WCC: 1. Gonzaga Bulldogs I personally [...]

This is a couple days late, but will be more up to date. The WCC is fun to watch right now. Gonzaga is playing better than any team in WCC history and are staring at a #1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. The rest of February holds excitement and intrigue and is sure to not [...]

A 6’2 walk-on point guard from Orem, Utah just saved BYU’s season.  The senior guard’s tip shot with 0.2 seconds remaining against Utah State allowed the Cougars to escape with a 70-68 win. This shot by this unlikely hero may have been the biggest shot of the season thus far by any player wearing the [...]
