If BYU finds themselves on the bubble. Obviously tons of opportunities for Q1 and Q2 wins in Big 12 play, but this non-conference slate only means BYU has to do that much more come January.

BYU is 7-2 with the losses being ot vs a top 20 team and to a big east

That’s my exact take on the season so far. Everything is proceeding as expected.

Agreed in part, but we are supposed to make teams miss.

Good thing it’s not conference play yet. We still have time to learn from that

Agree but if we were 6-3 it would be a disaster season so far. So we are just

We’re 1-2 in games that aren’t gimmes. We’re a point from 2-1 and nobody

A bad byu team does not force ot vs that sec team with like 8 seniors

We're only 20 points from 3-0

Well with a #343 SOS so far, it’s where they are expected to be

Agree with everything except putting lipstick on the providence game. That was just bad. They should be embarrassed

True I posted in that game it was by far the worst we’ve looked

#46 in KenPom, #60 in NET. Team isn’t on pace for the NCAA tourney right now.

Hence my I think by the end of the year we’ll be playing well

We don't have to worry about non-conference schedule as much anymore.

ochobeeguy

12/11/24 10:30pm

That’s just not true at all.

TCuz

12/11/24 10:37pm

Not true at all? So our conference schedule isn't better than WCC and MWC?

No, of course not. It’s like you didn’t even read the post I made first here.

46 KenPom has BYU bubble team

NYC and Japan

SOR 72, KPI 86. Resume rankings correlate better to seeding and selection

Mr. Scoobs

KenPom generally correlates well. Either way, young team, new coaches. Should

I hope Young schedules a better non-conference skate with AJ next year, cause this 7-2 record is meaningless.

For some reason I think you wouldn’t be happy at 9-0 🙂

franklyvulgar

12/11/24 10:17pm

No, that’s dumb.

Fair enough

This is a young talented team that may not get it together until March.

I think they should improve a lot through the season. I didn’t think they played especially well tonight and yet they

I would argue we win at providence if Egor doesn’t sprain his ankle

I would argue he hurt his knee and not his ankle

Trust in CB not a bevy of remarkable coaches who know what they are doing and talented players 🙂
