That's amazing considering some of the huckers we have on this team (worthington, kaufusi Collinsworth-2013, etc)

It appears that KC has improve his FTs. Kaufusi just coming off a mission is rusty. It looks like he has put some work in. He should be better by the end of the season. If he can become good, it will give him more minutes.

If we shot 70% during regulation of the SDSU game, we would have won in regulation. If Kaufusi made one of his 4 free-throws during regulation, we would have one.

It's better, but free-throw shooting will unfortunately cost us some games this year. Already has.

KC looks much, much improved from the line. Kaufusi is very rusty and I would hope he improves. We'll see about Worthington. He's had two years, though, at this point.

No tonight brother! BYU dominated at the line 34-39. BYU would have lost this game last year by 10 due to the FTs. This year, the FTs accounted for over 1/3 of their points.

kc shooting 72% this year vs 57% last year. not sure if that's statistically significant but it definitely reassuring heading into conference play.
