was running that rick patino offense always swinging the rock go watch the 96 championship game pope played in and see how much that offense resembles his except popes offense shoots more threes
Houston is the Big 12's only hope, and the Cougars don't have a player above 6'7". At least they finally got a player or two who can shoot (LJ Cryer from Baylor and Sharp in an expanded role as a sophomore). I still wouldn't trust them because most of their players can't shoot.
@@RobbieStacks90 oh please, you've got 10 teams in the big 12 that would be in the tournament Houston, Iowa State, Baylor, Kansas, BYU, Texas Tech, Texas and MORE you can't tell me that Purdue is better than Houston.
@@ELILOL853 None of those teams can win a championship. Houston has a chance with the right draw, even though I hate the way they play the game and have always disliked Kelvin Sampson.
@@alextemusThey said the exact same thing about Jokic which is why he slipped to the late second round in the draft. Jokic is literally 7ft, slow, unathletic, appears to be out of shape. But he doesn’t need insane athleticism because of his insane passing ability and high IQ at that height. Khalifa is the exact same height as Jokic, has good passing ability and IQ and can evidently shoot the 3. If he continues to improve and play like this, I don’t see why he wouldn’t get drafted.
Mark Pope still BYU coach? He is a former Kentucky player, man he has BYU playing some great offense. If Calipari ever retires soon Kentucky needs to give ol pope a call. For real.
@@Wetrockstah2116 i think he's going to do great here! The roster is so far sneaky good! Now if Pope can get Chaz Lanier or Jaxson Robsinson they'll be top 10
Good for BYU. It’s incredible what they’re doing in the Big 12. BYU better triple Pope’s salary or more. Lot of teams probably impressed with what he’s accomplished at BYU with there limited resources. My sleeper team to get him is UW. He graduated HS in Seattle and played at UW for 2 years before transferring to UK and won a national championship.
@@bradbufton1517 can’t compete with top schools with NIL money, trying to convince non LDS players to follow the honor code, trying to convince top recruits to move to Utah, praying that his top recruits stay in shape and have to wait for them to serve a 2 year mission, and etc. It’s definitely a tough job which makes it impressive with what he’s done there.
@@muddywaters92I agree with all the above except for the moving to Utah part. Utah and the Wasatch front are more populated, more interesting, and more fun than you think. I’m guessing you’ve never been out here? Other college towns are like gas stations comparatively.
Baylor’s defense was clueless against BYU. This Baylor team is the worst Scott Drew team that I have seen in years. As a Baylor grad, I have been watching them since the season started, and I don’t believe that they belonged in the top 25. Apparently a lot of people believe that Baylor is better than I do.
Baylor with their tremendous talented athletes is impossible to stop one on one. BYU is unstoppable too at defeating top rank teams. BYU is still in progress to become better.
I am betting Baylor to win it all! That Houston second half and Tcu game showed me this team will be a handful all tournament. Great odds to throw 50-100 at.
It wasn't an upset. BYU was favored by 4 and is the better team. Those rankings are arbitrary and meaningless. Do you really think Washington was the #2 team in college football? They didn't even belong in the playoff if we're being honest.
@@twand7719 Georgia would have been able to name the score against Washington. Texas and Washington didn't belong. It should have been Michigan, Georgia, Alabama, and Ohio State. The exact same final four teams it should have been last year too
Byu off ball movement is so good, players are always cutting, curling, slipping, screening
sounds like such a fun system to play in, definitely doing it right at byu

If only BYU could defend and create their own shot better. They likely will be one and done in the NCAA tourney.
If they win a couple games, BYU is one of those teams the fans are gonna get behind come March Madness.

This conference is absolute chaos and I love it
The Big 12 is so jacked.

Great bounce back game for BYU, go Cougs!
Not an upset the big 12 is just loaded with good teams
Yeah it's literally not an upset when you look at Vegas odds.
@@robbhays8077 Upsets are based on rankings. An 11 over a 6 is an upset even if people predict it will happen
Khalifa is a rare center with both insane assist to turnover ratio and great court vision in passing. Will he be drafted?
Great vision, but the fitness and strength just isn't close to NBA level. Here's obviously skilled, but it's just a different game
euro league type of player. nba is too fast
Maybe if he wasn't so unathletic. He can barely get off the ground. Probably has a 12 inch vertical. He'll play overseas.

Who knew you were right all along. And both coaches of this match up were targets.

This aged perfectly 😂
Boy did BYU need this badly
byu is capable of losing to awful teams and beating anyone in the country lol

Awesome win
what a great game!! Cougs on fire!!
It’s almost impossible to win on the road in big 12 this isn’t surprising at all
It's tough to win on the road in any conference. Look how BYU did in the soft West Coast Conference, it was a grind too.

Tons of upsets this week
Can't beat Big 12 basketball. Some of the top teams in the country, but anybody can beat anybody in the conference.
BYU is a sleeper they are going to make a deep run in the ncaa tournament for sure.
there bigs are to small if they face a team like unc theyre crushed
@@DSBmud I agree but they could get an easy path.
Man, would be awesome! Hopefully they can shoot in rhythm on the road moving forward. Those tourney games won’t be played at the Marriot Center!
@@briancrismonpetersen7885 I’m a unc fan
@@sawyerhinck2471 no path is easy in march
BYU ranked 25, Baylor ranked 11, so I guess we'll call it an upset, but the Big12 is so full of parity, anyone can beat anyone.
Good Win - BYU
How it’s an upset when byu was favorites
The ranking of 25 vs 11 makes it an upset
Ranking. Just because it's a trap game doesn't mean it's not an upset
Ranking.
Any win for byu in b12 is an upset 😂😂😂😂
@@jeddrichards9601u making an intelligent comment would be an upset.
The B12 is the best basketball conference in the country, and we (Arizona State) are headed for TROUBLE next year!!!
BYU was favored by 5 points lol this was not an upset
It is tough to win in the big12, especially on the road. 2025 is even more loaded.
God if pope gets the right players this year. Kentucky gonna be back
Jakobe play like ray allen brad beal
cool so byu beats baylor but loses to ok state on saturday and ruins my parlay ugh
You know all my boys hate Baylor 💀

They beat Texas. If anything Texas didn’t belong.
Washington deserved to be there tho so your point is invalid

Do you really think Ohio state should of gotten in look at the way they played against mizzou in the Cotten bowl
Upsets are based on rankings in college basketball.
BYU was literally 4.5 point favorites
is that mia brother
BYU’s starting center looks like a zombie 😂
He's a zombie with the highest assist to turnover ratio and he can knock down the open three. Viva la Zombie!
Uconn lOL
Any win for byu in b12 is an upset win.
