Pepperdine

Phew...another nail biter. Not sure I can handle anymore OT games.

A win is a win, so I'll take it.

The team is developing some maturity and that is fun to see. The OT win at home was crazy lucky for us but I will take it! Tonight’s OT win was well deserved.

Yeah, I hope all the games they win are in close overtime games. Get them to grow up faster. The young Cougs struggle in end of game situations where more experienced, Senior-laden teams impose their will and take over games.

So part of me really wants these last-possession games so that they can get older, faster.

No doubt. It builds confidence and experience.

The OT against SMC was a disaster. USF and Pepperdine aren't SMC, but it's nice to see we have our wits about us now in OT. That wasn't there before.

Didn't see the game, but I know pepperdine doesn't have 5 wins on the season. Why was BYU in a position to even get to OT?

Pepperdine made some clutch shots. They beat us on the boards. Hawes had an off night shooting. Too many turnovers on our part. They are all reasons why it was close, at least in my book. But we battled, kept our composure, and made our own clutch shots.

Pepperdine has some good athletes. They've had a lot of close games this season. Their game approach was to drive to the basketball and take us off the dribble. BYU struggles a bit with defending that.

We tried to force a lot of passes, which led to turnovers. I've noticed this over the last few games. A lot of times it seems to come from the bigs trying to pass to the middle.

This is a good question. Not sure why but Pepperdine had our number in their gym. We had lost 4 straight to them on the road until last nights win.
