PROVO — There’s a tiny statistic buried in BYU’s box score at Arizona that could loom large in weeks to come for Kalani Sitake's squad.
It’s often forgotten but is so important because it says so much.
In both the 21-point third quarter and in the final period Saturday night, BYU held the advantage in time of possession over the Wildcats at 11 minutes to three. That is just over 22-something minutes to about six something.
That speaks volumes of what was going on in the game and when the Cougars host California on Saturday for the home opener at LaVell Edwards Stadium, it will not be lost on both Sitake and Bears coach Justin Wilcox.
