BYU coach Dave Rose said his young, inexperienced team can take nothing for granted this year — even wins over Santa Clara. The Cougars have won 17 straight games against SCU, including 13 straight as a WCC member. The Broncos are the only WCC team that has never defeated BYU, and the Leavey Center is the only venue in the league where BYU has not lost since joining in 2011-12.
"I hope that we can crank this thing up tomorrow and be a little bit better [in practice], but there is only a few guys — we talk about this all the time — there are only a few guys who have been through this and know the challenge that we are facing," Rose said Tuesday night.
