Key Points:
- BYU Cougars secured a 76-70 victory over TCU, overcoming a season-low shooting performance attributed to TCU's strong defense rather than poor shot selection, according to head coach Kevin Young.
- The Cougars excelled in offensive execution, particularly in the second half where they scored 46 points, with key contributions from Richie Saunders and efficient playmaking by point guard Rob Wright.
- BYU dominated the rebounding battle with 51 total rebounds and 24 second-chance points, which both coaches cited as a critical factor in the win despite TCU making one more field goal.
- The team’s aggressive approach, inspired by halftime motivation and toughness, helped them maintain a perfect 4-0 start in conference
