Shut down Jonathan Tavernari and play very physical defense against him, cause if he isn't on, even if Plaisted is having a solid game, it essentially makes BYU one dimensional and easier to defend.

That's the blueprint to stop BYU.

Lee Cummard has to figure out a way to solve his foul problem, cause he's killing us by not being on the court.

I don't think it's so much the physical aspect that kills us, but the perimeter pressure. Although their rebounding killed us. That's very frustrating. And double teaming with Murdock's man is going to be tough to answer for us.
