BYU women's basketball: Cougars plan to enjoy Austin during NCAA trip

The world-famous South by Southwest film and music festival is going on this week in Austin, but coaches weren't sure the Cougars would be able to experience any of that this weekend.

Assistant coach Dan Nielson grew up in nearby Round Rock and is the group's unofficial tour guide.

Nielson said they ate Thursday at the Texas Land & Cattle restaurant in Austin after arriving via charter flight from Provo, and then hit Torchy's Tacos for lunch on Friday. The plan for Friday night was to hit The County Line for barbecue.

"We will have a good group of BYU fans at the game," Nielson said.
