The Mountain West had a good regular season last year. They had 5 very good teams (Utah, BYU, San Diego State, New Mexico, UNLV) that were all in contention for NCAA tournament bids late in the ...
For BYU's HC Dave Rose, it has been an interesting offseason. Rose was diagnosed with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor cancer this summer. The tumor was successfully removed, and Rose (so far) remains completely cancer free...
If you are a supporter of a team in the Mountain West Conference, today is not a happy day. Unless you support San Diego State, then you are feeling pretty good. BYU and Utah went out within a day of each other in the first round of the NCAA tournament
BYU as a football program really "bit the big one" this past year. They talked themselves up like they were gods walking among men, but when it came down to brass tacks, they proved that they are nothing but hollow shells of human beings...

I must admit that I was shocked when I heard that BYU was matched up with Texas A&M again. I remember the feeling last year and A&M just isn’t a really good match up for us. They just have more athletes...
In preparation for Thursday's BYU-Texas A&M first-round NCAA Tournament matchup, let's breakdown the specifics: Guards Texas A&M's Derrick Roland, Donald Sloan, and Josh Carter vs...
With a lot of discussion about the bubble, and not enough discussion about the weird travel decisions (example: Utah playing in Miami, Florida State playing in Boise), this tournament committee appeared to struggle in formulating a good bracket...
It is clear to just about everyone who knows anything about sports that BYU is little brother to the University of Utah. For many years I have heard many people say that BYU had a superior program to Utah...
With the conference tournament really starting today, it merits a few moments to consider what BYU stands to lose, and in turn gain, in the tournament...
A side note before the real info here, the Colorado State/Air Force will be shown on The Mtn. and in high definition at 2pm Pacific time. Below will be the odds of each team to win the conference tournament overall...
Location: Provo, UT Nickname: Cougars Conference: Mountain West Last Year’s Record: 25-8 Why they’ll make it All-conference performers Jimmer Fredette and Jonathan Tavernari return to lead a stacked Cougar squad...
Game Time: 10:30 PM ETGame Line: SDSU - 5SDSU is simply unbeatable at home this year going 11 – 1 at Cox Arena. Their one loss was to Saint Mary’s with Patty Mills in the lineup...
This is a huge road trip upcoming. It’s time we win at one of these arenas; Cox Arena and the Thomas and Mack have absolutely been brutal to us in the last four years...
BYU’s early season success was due in large part to a few basic basketball principles. They played great help defense, they made the extra pass, giving up a good shot for a better one, ...
After nearly taking out Texas A&M in last year's tournament, the Cougars have been on a tear. Their relatively soft schedule has killed their recognition though. Their best opponent was a near win against No...
It has been very nice of late to hear the names of Mountain West teams being mentioned on national sports shows. I have noticed that BYU is almost always mentioned as a quality win for Wake Forest...
There’s nothing worse than playing a bad team on the road. They want to beat you so bad to turn their season around. You have to play to win and not play not to lose...
Intro from Mike Rose: Jimmy played on the team for four years and started three of those. He was one of the better scorers we’ve had in the program over the last decade. Scored like 40 a game in high school to give you an idea...
OK, so Wyoming is not great outside of Laramie (probably the worst city in America), but this was a nice win for BYU to hopefully get some confidence going and propel us into the last half of conference play with some good vibes...
Good news - We played as hard as we have all season for 45 minutes. We were flying around and getting in passing lanes, diving on the floor, getting steals; we really battled tonight. I hope to see that every game; the effort was great...
We are attempting to beat Utah tomorrow for the fifth time in a row overall and third in a row in the Huntsman Center. This will not be an easy task, as crazy Jim Boylen will have the troops fired up and ready to run somebody over...
Against UNLV we scored one basket in the first 10 minutes of the second half after scoring 43 points in the first. What did we do at halftime, take a nap? One basket!!!!!!!!!! UNLV guarded us ...
This is a big game for the Cougars tonight because UNLV was picked to win the league, and a big game for me personally; living in Las Vegas right now, there’s no team I like to beat more ...
You don’t really sleep well the night of a loss. You just lie awake and think about all the plays that could’ve changed the game. You think about how behind you are in classes, and how brutal film room and practice will be the next day...
