BYU going back on the road, at Illinois State, on the heels of disappointing home loss to Houston

PROVO — For the first time in about three weeks, the BYU basketball team is going back on the road.

The Cougars fell at Nevada, ranked in the top 10, back on Nov. 6, and then they won five consecutive home games.

Then last Saturday, BYU was beaten by Houston, 76-62, at the Marriott Center.

Now the Cougars visit Illinois State Wednesday (6 p.m. MST, The Valley on ESPN) at Doug Collins Court at Redbird Arena.

“We’ve just got to carry the same energy and toughness we’ve shown in this last five-game stretch at the Marriott Center and take that with us on the road,” said forward Dalton Nixon.
