Whitney Bower will be making an appearance on BYU Sports Nation this morning, probably in 20 minutes or so. I'll post the video after it goes on YouTube.

How many pieces of gum does Ballard-Nixon go through in a match?

Is there a way to see what BYU’s RPI would be if they win out?

Is there a way to see what BYU’s RPI would be if they win out? You could ask bluepenquin to run the simulation. But in the current RPI futures, BYU is projected to only have one more loss anyway. So I don't think it would change their final RPI projection all that much if they were to go undefeated in conference rather than 17-1. |

There is a pretty wide gap between 7 and 8 right now. |

I see that BYU has risen to No. 2 in Pablo, behind only Wisconsin. I'm not sure if they were ever No. 1 in Pablo in 2018. I know they finished second.

So #8 in RPI and #2 in Pablo. Is there ANY chance BYU gets a top 8 seed if those hold true?

Good job by the coaches to get these awards right. I posted my own thoughts about them (and Bower) in the awards thread here. |

FYI: BYUtv has finally fixed their player so that the 15 seconds forward/backwards options work instead of causing the video to freeze. It was such a breeze watching the match on Saturday night. Joy!

Hallelujah. That was so annoying. I eventually found that it was easiest to jump back like 15 minutes and then go back to the time stamp I wanted. As for the awards, I agree that they were the obvious choices, but Allen didn't win DPOY over there, unfortunately, all due respect to Shields. |

Hallelujah. That was so annoying. I eventually found that it was easiest to jump back like 15 minutes and then go back to the time stamp I wanted. I used to be able to do that too, but recently, the only thing that worked for me was restarting the match. It was getting worse and worse. I stopped trying and just watched the youtube videos for the last few matches, which I'd rather not, if I can watch it on BYUtv.org.
EDIT: Hm... maybe I spoke too soon. I just tried watching it on my laptop, and it worked to go back at first, but now it doesn't. Same old, same old. Fast forward is still working though. That's better than nothing.
