going into this year. We won at Kansas last year and had great chances to win at Baylor and ISU. We did beat Baylor and ISU in Provo. I think we added more talent than Baylor and ISU. Kansas' newcomers are harder to predict but I am not scared of Hunter Dickinson. I think he is a very limited player and slow of foot. We are better able to defend him this year than last.

If we can beat Purdue in November in Vegas I think we can run the table on the preseason and approach a 10 rank before league play.

It is going to take a few years for AP voters (football and basketball) to get used to seeing BYU ranked high.
