BYU has The good news reached the end of the road and will finally get to return home to the Marrioct Center for two games against the Arizona schools. The Cougars have played 12 of their last 31 games on the road and the BYU fans are still unacquainted with the team, having seen only three home games ail year. on the season BYU is now but of the 11 remaining games, seven will be at home and only four on the road, and so the Cougars now have a chance to reverse their losing record. Utah State Coach Dutch Belnap thinks the Cougars will be able to do it. After the game he sairf, "We've played WAC teams 6-- 9 Arizona including State, Wyoming, Colorado State and Utah, and BYU is on a par with them. I think they'll be very competitive in the WAC and with those two fine guards, they wiil even win some more on the road" Fine Guards The two fine guards Belnap was referring to were Belmont Anderson and Doug Richards and they each turned in in outstanding performances BYU's loss here last night. Anderson played his best game of the season, hitting a sensational 10 of 14 from the field and eight for eight from the foul line for 28 points. Richards played another one of his consistent games and scored 21 points. The BYU guards carried almost the entire Cougar effort in the first half as they hit all but two field goals in the first 20 minutes. Between them they hit 10 of 16 shots for 62.5 per cent while the Cougar front line hit only two of 16 in that first half for a miserable 12.5 per cent. Yet, at that stage the Cougars trailed by only seven, Foul sbootug kept the Cougars in the game during the first half as after missing the first two foul shot) in the game, the Cougars then hit 13 straight prior to halftime. For Utah State it was a O (7 "We lost the ball game in the first few minutfs of each half," and the scoring summary indicates Potter's statement is true. During the first few minutes of the first half, USU outscored and in the first few BYU, minutes of the second half, the Aggies outscored the Cougars, for an 18--4 bulge in the first few minutes of both halves.
