BYU-Gonzaga Game

Probably not. BYU has a high powered offense but they have virtually no interior players. If they aren't hitting from outside or the foul line, they will have a difficult time scoring. I am a BYU alum and I would love to see them win again, but that will be really difficult.
Also, if anyone noticed last night Kyle Collinsworth picked up his 6th triple-double of the season. The NCAA record for triple-doubles in a career is 6 and Kyle tied that in one season. Not bad.
I don't know, I watched that last game and BYU looked like a team that just knew how to exploit Gonzaga's defensive weaknesses. They didn't just jack up a bunch of threes. Collinsworth is seriously good at finding people and he can score himself too, he is the type of point guard who is a nightmare to defend. If they could go in and beat Gonzaga on their home floor on Senior Night, you would thknk they could do it again on a neutral floor. Of course, this time they will be playing for a likely NCAA tournament spot and the nerves could get to them.
yeah I watched it....that is the 2nd one of his triple doubles I watched this season...more impressed by the fact that he is doing it coming off a torn ACL in last years WCC tournament championship game
I lived near South Bend back in the day and will never forget Ainge leading BYU to an upset (think it was) of the Irish and coming out of chair cheering. But, that was before your time!
Yes, quite a while before my time. They would play the highlight of his buzzer-beater against the Irish before every home game. Ainge weaved around the entire Irish team before hitting the winning layup.Originally posted by preacherfan:

While I was there Matt Montague from Louisville Male broke Ainge's assist record, so that was pretty fun.
