But I don't believe we are going to get beat by 35 on the road, either. If BYU does have a good team then they will likely get disrespected by committes.

I don't care if byu is the worse team in the country--stop running away from legitimate competition or Rose needs to quit.

BYU has more resources, facilities, budget than 90% of CBB teams. There is nothing to be gained by beating up on junky teams at home---no one cares and it hurts our metrics.

BYU wants respect they need to earn it on the road. They are a good enough team to play competitively with most teams including those in the top 25---they knocked off the #1 team on the road last year.

Defense isn't going to get better playing junky teams. Better competition brings our better effort in players and stretches them to make strides in their game.
