PROVO — In the opening minutes of Friday’s game against Division II opponent Adams State, BYU played somewhat like it did in a loss earlier in the week at Long Beach State.
The Cougars missed their first seven 3-pointers, missed three of their first five free throws and had six turnovers over the first 12 minutes.
