The unbeaten Big 12 run comes to an end. On today’s Locked On Cougars, host Jake Hatch breaks down BYU basketball’s 84-71 loss to Texas Tech in Lubbock. While it was a game the Cougars controlled for nearly 30 minutes, a late-game surge by the Red Raiders handed Kevin Young his first conference defeat.
Anatomy of a Collapse: The Final 9:26
For the first three-quarters of the game, BYU looked every bit like a Top 15 team. However, the final stretch told a different story.
The 32-10 Run: We dive deep into the final 9:26 of gametime. How did a lead evaporate so quickly? We look at the defensive lapses and the sudden offensive stagnation that allowed Texas Tech to seize momentum in a hostile United Supermarkets Arena.
Shot Selection & Turnovers: Kevin Young’s squad struggled to find quality looks once the Red Raiders turned up the physical pressure. We discuss whether this was a matter of fatigue, road environment, or a tactical shift that BYU failed to counter.
Moving Forward: One loss doesn't ruin a season, but it provides a blueprint for future opponents. What adjustments must BYU make before they return to the Marriott Center to ensure this late-game drought doesn't become a trend?
BYU Football: Power 4 Talent Arrives via the Portal
While the hardwood saw a setback, the gridiron gained major reinforcements. Kalani Sitake and his staff continue to be aggressive in the transfer portal, officially signing two high-impact players from the Power 4 ranks.
Roger Saleapaga (TE, Oregon): A former blue-chip recruit and Utah native returns home. We discuss Saleapaga’s elite frame and how his experience at Oregon makes him an immediate mismatch nightmare in BYU’s offensive scheme. Is he the heir apparent to the great BYU tight end legacy?
Jayven Williams (CB, Mississippi State): The Cougars needed veteran depth and speed in the secondary, and they found it in the SEC. We break down Williams’ film from his time with the Bulldogs and how his physicality fits the "Jay Hill" style of aggressive man coverage.
The Roster Outlook: With these two additions, we analyze the current state of the 2026 roster and where BYU football might still be looking to upgrade before spring ball begins.
