Maybe they will beat Stanford (again)... but didn't you also predict PSU to take them apart too ?

I don't recall making that prediction specifically, but was rooting for Penn St.

ilikecorn, currently BYU’s links for schedule, roster, and stats are actually Nebraska’s.

I'll go with Stanford in this one. They have the best player in the country, it's on a neutral court, and Stanford is healthier and whole
