Yep. Unsung hero of the game. He handled Pitino's "40 Minutes of Hell" with relative ease.

Arch has to be thoroughly disapointed that we didn't dominate the #6 ranked team tonight.

I dunno. Lady Luck may have sent it all the hoop team's way.

Great game. This team is unlike past BYU teams in the number of scoring options on the floor. It was refreshing to see heady play in a big game (I am used to seeing the opposite).

After watching against Hartford, I predicted BYU could win a game in the dance. This confirms of that prediction.

Oh wait, Tavernari just nailed one from 3-pt range.

Sheesh.

That's what I love about Tav. Dude has no conscience.

Even when he's struggling he still isn't letting it affect his confidence.

I only saw one or two careless passes all game, which I remember being a huge problem in previous years. It seems like these guys know to keep their feet until they're sure where they're going with it most of the time. That's a sign of good coaching.

I loved Dave Rose's comments in the post-game: "Jonathon made some good decisions tonight and some others that we'll continue to work on."

I told Indy, even I had a good feeling about this team. I liked that Rose gave significant minutes to two freshmen, Lloyd and Collinsworth. Too bad neither is mission bound. So sad.

This team may develop to break the no Tourney win streak.

I also loved his other comment. "They were forcing us to speed the game up, but that's actually the way we love to play, so it was fun for us."
