Hey, who doesn't love watching BYU basketball be very good? Great, even? Through two games, the Cougars are unblemished thanks to a narrow escape against Villanova and a vicious romp through Holy Cross in the home opener. Kevin Young's crew marches back onto the hardwood surface of the Marriott Center floor once again on Tuesday for a slice of the visiting Delaware Fightin' Blue Hens.
Delaware approaches Provo with an 0-2 record, following two losses to the likes of Bucknell and...
Whoa. There's no way, this can't be right. My production crew handed me a print-out that says Delaware lost their last game to Division II Wilmington 62-71, there's zero chance that's accurate... So fact-check it!
Oh... oh my gosh. It's true. In a season that's already seen so many upsets and shocking results, there are few more unbelievable than the Fightin' Blue Hens suffering defeat at the hands of a team that isn't even in Division I. I'm going to need a moment.
The faltering Delaware side stumbles into Provo for a battle with a top-10 BYU basketball team. A BYU side with NBA talent like AJ Dybantsa, likely future pros in Richie Saunders and Rob Wright III, and an NBA-quality head coach in Kevin Young who has put together the most talented and electrifying roster ever constructed on the campus of Brigham Young University. The Hens are heading directly into a buzzsaw in their non-conference slate. May the basketball gods have mercy on the visitors.
Against Holy Cross, Kevin Young kept his primary rotation on the floor for most of the contest, only pulling his stars to the bench in the waning minutes of the game, despite the result being all but decided at halftime. Whether this is to give his players more time to mesh and build chemistry, or a power move to assert royal blue dominance, we may see more of the same in this matchup, even if the scoreboard gets Monstars-levels of uncontrollable.
