Diamond Head Classic Bracket Released; BYU to Open Versus South Florida
Photo by Darryl Oumi/Getty Images ESPN released the 8-Team Diamond Head Classic Bracket Thursday afternoon. The event will run December 22-25 in Honolulu, Hawaii. BYU will open versus South Florida and play either Hawaii or Vanderbilt in the next round. Official bracket is below.
BYU’s tip off time and exact channel are TBD, but every game of the tournament will be on either ESPNU or ESPN2.
We don’t know exactly how good each team will be, but BYU’s ideal path at this point is to beat USF and then draw Vanderbilt in the semifinals and Stanford in the finals. Vanderbilt is improving under Head Coach Jerry Stackhouse and Stanford finished 57 in KenPom last year and should be a solid matchup.
