Utes Bracing for Rough Environment at BYU
Make no mistake, the Utes know they're headed for one of the toughest places to play in the country when they meet rival Brigham Young at the Marriott Center on Wednesday.
For the first time that I've seen, they were practicing today while blaring crowd noise into the arena. And it wasn't just for show, either; when they flipped that thing on, you could hardly hear a thing, no matter how hard you tried.
When the sound was off, coach Jim Boylen -- feeling much better, after getting sick over the weekend -- was preaching to his players that the Cougars are a good team, but not any better than some of the other teams the Utes have played. "What they are good at is passing, cutting and running," Boylen said. "They're better than that than most."
