BYU 12 more shots than Baylor

Half as dozen crappy official calls in BYU's favor

They get way easier shots. All ours are hard and contested.

Try zone Drew. Don't see how they can murder that any more than the're killing our man.

3-3 on our first 3 attempts from deep.

1-11 since.

That and the total absence of rebounding are the story in this one. Hopefully we learn our lesson about boxing out before Houston comes to town Saturday.

We're gonna have to take more shots from 3 range, which with Nunn on the bench is a bad situation

Great first few minutes then just hanging around. Lax possessions, soft rebounding. Making it way too easy on them to bomb 3s and crash glass. Needed this one

I thought I saw him go to the ground right before they went to the first TV timeout. Hasn't been back in since.

The real win would have been gotting out of this game completely healthy....

And we get out hustled on another rebound on the defensive end capped off by Lohner's 3rd foul. Rinse and repeat.
