UC has now given up 80 or more points in back-to-back games. BYU coach Kevin Young apologized for the shot, but it did give the 17,483 fans at the Marriott Center free subs from Jersey Mike's in a local promotion.

It will be extremely difficult to knock off the Cougars in the mountains. BYU is 9-1 at home and 2-1 in Quad 2 games, as Cincinnati fits that distinction being a team ranked outside the NET's top 30. The Bearcats are 2-1 against BYU since the 1949-50 season, winning by an average of 11 points.
