Default Michigan St was a nice preview of what Utah will be in a few years

Utah is on our way to be a less talented version of what you saw from Michigan St on Saturday. Utah is running the same offensive and defensive sets right now, with not nearly as much success of course.

A less talented version would have gotten blown out by BYU.

By this BYU team. I think we all realize this is a bit of a golden age for BYU hoops.

Which makes me a bit sad, we have the brief, golden age, and we can't even defeat Michigan State at home after mounting a ten point first half lead. I can't wait to see how pathetic "Miles in the Middle" sounds and looks.

No matter what percentage of people are cheering for you, the Delta Center is not "home".

BYU would have won the game had it been in the Marriot Center.

You are just figuring out that BYU is going to lose the majority of games it plays against legitimate top 10 teams?

We'll normally it will lose all of them, but geeze during its once every two decades golden years, they can at least have the temerity to win more than fifty percent. That way our constant losing during the dark ages of basketball can be bearable.

Arch, if BYU lost to Louisiville you would be pulling string like The Bunny Ranch's finest asking the almighty for just one win over a top 10 team. If BYU beat MSU and then advanced to the second round and lost or into the 3rd round and lost you would return to being Air Force Amy (Off we go into the wild blue yonder!) and whine what if BYU could just make one sweet 16 or one elite 8 or why BYU has never made the final 4. This is why BYU is the perfect team for you to support, the hoops program will ensure you can whine every year.

However, I almost look forward to your whining and I salute you like I do your muse, the affable AFA.
