UCR was fast, physical, and shot lights out. Great prep for BIG 12 play. Got to
figure out how UCR was able to speed-up our shots. Catchings almost disappeared. That was just the kind of team BYU needed to play. UCR went toe-to-toe with Oregon before they went cold and Oregon pulled away. UCR shot 39% from 3pt (33 pts) while BYU shot 27% (18 pts). UNR shot 83% on free throws accounting for 19 pts. BYU shot 54% accounting for 14 pts. Those two stats accounted for 20pts. We match them and we win by 26. One of the most telling stats was that we beat them in the paint 48 to just 14 pts which is why we had a better shooting % 53% vs 43%. Their strategy was to defend the 3pt shot and it worked but then we killed them in the paint.

Against Oregon, UCR shot 50% on free throws (only 6 pts), still shot a lot of 3pt shots (35%, 36 pts) vs (33%, 18 pts) and got killed in the paint 22pts vs 48 pts for Oregon.

UCR strategy is to make a lot of 3pt shots and they try to draw fouls to get to the line. Oregon didn't foul much so that helped and Oregon made a lot of fastbreak pts (18-1). KY wanted BYU to clear the boards and get more fastbreak pts. Dallin Hall will help with that.
