PROVO — After compiling a 10-4 record on the season, and fighting some unique challenges along the way, the BYU men's basketball team will take on a whole new challenge when squaring off against Loyola Marymount (7-5) on Saturday.
The challenge? It simply involves playing a game on an opponent's home floor — something the Cougars have yet to do this season.
Sure, the team has played several games away from the Marriott Center — five, to be exact — but all those game were played at neutral venues.
It's a unique position that BYU coach Dave Rose hasn't been in before, at this stage of the season, but his players are excited to finally play on an opponent's home floor, and the challenges it comes with.
