I agree with Mike's mentality that BYU should be happy to play anybody with an attitude to defeat anybody.

Florida had some great recruiting years, so the athletic talent is there. Bad for BYU.

Florida has played badly toward the end of the season. Hopefully good for BYU.

Florida is supposedly not a great rebounding team, but remind me of UNLV, bad for BYU.

Too hard to predict.

If by a minor miracle BYU defeats Florida, does it have enough to get by KState?

A sweet Sixteen visit would make this team successful; anything less and we could consider the season a promising failure.

A win against florida would be progress.

BYU is like the player who bricks both free throws at the end of the game. Mentally weak. Haven't won the conference tournament in 9 years.

Winning against florida would be a minor miracle. Beating k state would be the red sea parting. I just don't have any faith in these guys. Rose hasn't shown himself to be a big game coach.

Both teams have inside players so they both scare me, though if we can't defeat Florida, we suck.
