We shouldn't have lost to UNLV and Wake Forest by a bazillion nor should we have lost to SDSU in San Diego.

There are a lot of things BYU shouldn't do, but I can only go as far as to say that BYU will be favored. If Trent plays the whole game like he did the first half and we don't have others like Collingsworth come in and pick up the slack we'll only win if SDSU is having an average night. Wade White is the type of player that BYU has problems matching up against.

I assume you mean both Lorrenzo Wade and Billy White. Yes, those two players can give us a hard time. I think BYU will come better prepared for them than our last outing.

Unfortunately I didn't see today's game, but my understanding is we played awesome defense and got a lot of our points in transition from defensive stops. Trent can not score a basket all game for all I care as long as he plays awesome D like he did today and grabs those boards. We have plenty of scorers. Out of Cummard, Burgess, JT, Jimmer and now Colinsworth, one of them will have a hot hand.

PS--I think that this is the year that we do it!

Also, if we win the tournament, we may have a decent chance to jump up in the rankings because some of the ranked teams ahead of us could well lose this week in their conference tourneys.

Like Washington St losing to Cal. That helped us in the rankings department.

Trent didn't score a lot, but every time he touched the ball he drew two or three guys which is why we had so many open shots. Pick your poison, double or triple Trent and watch us bomb from the outside or let one guy guard Trent and watch him go for 20 or more. I'd hate to be an opposing team's coach right now. That's a lose lose situation.

Washington lost to Cal not Washington State. Washington State beat Oregon tonight.

Oh good...WSU has a special place in my heart.

I have faith that the coaches will figure out how to stop Lorrenzo Wade this time. There's no way he's going off like he did in San Diego.
