The offense really stagnated during the first half of the second half. Kept trying to go down low to Davies, who was completely ineffective. Either turning it over, or missing shots. And everyone else standing around. Totally killed the flow. They've got to do something better than that. We'll see that if teams can play Davies straight up, then BYU will suffer. Until they realize they have to play with some flow and not look for him constantly. Play some high-low with him at the top of the key, let him face up and hit that 15 footer at the elbow.

The Wisconsin PG is money. He's good, and he killed BYU. He took Anson Winder to school, paid for his books, and filled out his scantron sheets. Holy shiznit.

Abuou was disappointing. Really a non-factor. Rogers needs to be huge for this team to be good, he showed some flashes in the first half, but got almost no minutes in the 2nd half and was pulled after giving up a bad 3.

One just hopes and prays that Carlino is a significant upgrade.

And what's up with Zylstra--a two who can't hit open three pointers? Kind of defeats the point of having him on the floor.

Hartsock. He was the really the only mismatch on the floor for BYU. He was cash money. Loved his game tonight. I liked Harrison's aggression, but he's a work in progress. Cusick is just there. Doesn't make anything happen, just tries to not make mistakes. That's not good enough for this team.

This team will get better. Hopefully they learned something from this thumping.
