Aztecs by 3?



Get YOUR Predictions in!

It makes sense that a #13 ranked team with a 14 game win-streak would lose on the road to an "average" five loss SDSU team that has beaten NOBODY (other than a slipping New Mexico team)this year.



As it is not appropriate to speak as a fan on this forum (or something like that according to Mars), we'll speak out of logic, and boy, your logic makes incredible sense. What do you have for Kentucky vs. Arkansas this week? hmmm... Arkansas by 48?

First time posting here - I'll guess Cougars by 3. The free-throw disparity will make the difference.

BYU 77

SDSU 72



Anyone know if White is back for SDSU?

I think SDSU by 3 is the Vegas line on the game.....not Mars prediction. Could be wrong though.

Logic tells me that we beat them in SD last year and we are a better team than that and they are not quite as good, it would be very hard not to project a BYU win.

81- 76 BYU. Free throws kill the pathetic Aztecs again!

Over the season, BYU's free throw percentage seems like a huge advantage over SDSU's, great point. The only problem is that with the game being in San Diego, I wouldn't be too surprised to see the refs give the Aztecs 10 more shots than they give us.

82-69 Cougs.

Wow, lots of "close game" predictions. What makes you all think SDSU is so good? What leads me to believe they suck is that they suck.



BYU by 11

I like it.



Don't know if I'll predict that score, but I like the spread.

Well, they suck on the road, but are 9-0 at home and we've had trouble there in recent years. Of course, if it is a close game we just need to foul and we'll win going away. I think Cougs win, but I also think that everyone is expecting a bad game out of the Cougs sometime and wonder if this week is it.

I doubt it. This is the first big road test, so I think they come to play.

This is BYU's fourth big road test. So far they're 2-1. They lost to Utah State but have beaten Arizona and UTEP.

yeah, 9-0 at home... and take a look at these teams!



UC San Diego

Santa Clara

Northern Arizona

CSU Fullerton

Arizona (by 13 less points than how much we beat them by @ Arizona)

UC Riverside

Pomona-Pitzer

UNM

TCU



The only "good" team I see on there is UNM. And UNM is crap on the road, their entire season revolves around winning big games in the pit.

Two of those victories were against teams that don't even have a sports page on Rivals.



I'm sorry, but until SDSU beats us this Saturday, I'm not impressed. They are a classic example of a team that only has a decent (5 losses isn't that hot really) record b/c they've played a bunch of nobodies.

BY by 21, Jimmer finds his grove, and JT makes his shots.

The way BYU and SDSU shoot free throws, 10 more shots won't be enough :)
