Lack of toughness on the boards dooms Aggies against BYU

SALT LAKE CITY - It might have been a lack of determination or a shortage of energy following last week's tournament in Mexico. Or perhaps the Aggies were just short on savvy and/or pure muscle.

Whatever it was, in the eyes of head coach Utah State Tim Duryea it was directly responsible for his team being dominated on the boards during Wednesday night's 77-63 loss to BYU at Vivint Smart Home Arena.

"It was a totally embarrassing performance physically; we totally got out-toughed," Duryea proclaimed following his team's third straight setback after a 3-0 start.
