BYU NEEDS to beat Santa Clara and Pepperdine. No matter what. A loss against either would drop us two to three seed lines, and a loss against both would drop us three to four. Honestly, I would rather lose to both instead of one. If we lose to both we would end up as a 10,11, or 12, a loss to one would turn out to be a seed line drop, to a 8 or 9. A 8 or 9 would be the worst possible seed for us, we would play a even matched team, and even if we beat them, the only goo 1 seed matchup for us is SDSU or maybe Gonzaga. But both of those teams have beat us. A 10-12 seed would be tough because we would play a quality team. And, if we are a at-large bid for a 12, we would likely play a game in Dayton. Even if we beat Gonzaga, we will probably end up as a 8 or 9. But two quad three losses would not be good. Also, that really hurts our momentum going into Vegas and the NCAA tourney. It is very important that we beat SC and Pepperdine. And if we go into the Zag game with a loss against a lower tier team, that really hurts us. Go Cougs, and lets go get that 6 seed
