Prior to being in the WCC, BYU did play WCC teams occasionally. Between 2000 and '11 BYU played WCC teams 16 times.
By my count, I think it's accurate, maybe missed one -- but for discussion . . . . The teams were: St Marys - 3 times Pepperdine - 3 times Portland - 2 times Loyola Marymount - 2 times Santa Clara - 2 times San Diego - 2 times San Francisco - 2 times Gonzaga - 1 time So ~ 17 games against WCC teams between 2000 and when we entered the WCC. Out of those games, what was BYU's win-loss record? 13 wins - 4 losses. Losses were against Loyola-M, St. Marys, Pepperdine and San Francisco.So a 76% winning record against WCC teams in all of those games. This year, right now we're 10-5 for 66%. So overall, we did a little better against these teams before we were in the same conference with them. Not a huge difference though. The record doesn't show though, that these are teams BYU would beat 90% of the time or more. We lost games to them before being in the WCC and we lose games to them now. I think they do better against us now partly because they've come to know the BYU strengths and weaknesses.
