What a meltdown. NC State led against BYU for 29:21 out of 40 minutes, but ultimately fell to the Cougars 86-95.
For the first three quarters of this game, NC State was leading against BYU, but the unraveling began earlier in the 2nd half.
Vanderbilt lives and dies by the three point shot. In the first half, the Wolfpack held them to 26% shooting from beyond the arch. In the 2nd half, they shot 60% from three-point land. Most of these three-pointers were uncontested, because NC State was unable to push through screens, over pursued the passing lanes, ultimately leaving BYU shooters open on skip passes.
