D.T. Survivor Walk-on

You can’t argue that Rose didn’t have headscratching losses every year to WCC opponents. Hopefully Pope can eliminate those.

Rose also gave us some amazing Gonzaga wins, something we’ll see if The Man With the Funny Hat can do.

BYU just needs to go 12-4 in conference play to be a shoo-in for the NCAAs.

A win on Thursday would be huge. Would be hard to see us doing worse than 12-4

Kinda hard to see us go less than 13-3 if we win on Thursday

I still have some hangover from the Rose years. Bound to be a couple bad losses.

If they go undefeated with 3 wins over Gonzaga we'd deserve a 2 seed

Gonzaga will get us twice, SMC at their place, and it would be extremely

Not sure how you can post this take when...

I’m doubtful that we will beat SMC once and then

For sure, but he has yet to prove he can beat all the bad WCC teams

I suppose so, but logically that shouldn't be harder than

Not if 2 losses are to SD and UOP.

That'd mean going at least 2-2 against SMC and Gonzaga so it'd balance out

jreid191

You under estimate the importance of horrible losses.

except that BYU has had at least one and still made the tournament

BlueK

Not at all. Most people overestimate their negative impact.

I’m still convinced getting in is about optics. And if you give people a chance
