I know. The Olympics Have Started. But, there is also a BYU basketball game tonight. An important one. Partly because they are all important. Also because USF is tied with BYU for 2nd place. Saint Mary's and Pepperdine are not far behind. USF might be dangerous. They went off from distance and beat us in Provo last year. We beat them at their place a few weeks ago.

USF has played a ton of games at home and few away from home. And yet, they shoot free throws worse than BYU. Las Vegas predicts a 11 1/2 to 12 point BYU win. BYU won at SF by about 7. But, USF has won a couple of OT games on the road. They have looked good and bad at times.

Predictions? Comments?

If we keep them off the offensive glass, we win by 20+, otherwise we win by 9-12.

We should be making more of those easy chippies, but all of the offensive rebounds so far are great

I only just started watching, but Worthington looks good on the boards. He's more aggressive than Mika in that regard.

Is it just me or is Austin going for more swats since Worthington began getting into the rotation? Our bigs have played wuss ball for too long. Play Worthington!

BYU shooting 38.7. ugh. That's about the only reason the dons are still in this one. BYU should have about 50 by now. Have had a lot of good looks. It's getting chippy out there. BYU nearly matched their offensive boards with turnovers (9).

This game is a recipe for disaster for BYU. They are getting beat in FG% and turnovers. Very few teams win these types of games if they lose both those stats. Offsetting is BYU's o-boards. FTs are another area that can keep a team in a game if they are losing FG% and turnovers, and we all know about that myth.

Mika has terrible hands in the post. I've never seen a player lose so many balls when turning his body.

FT line jumpers from KC are not going to get the job done in the 2nd half.
