BYU’s problematic perimeter defense returned. It’s not just the fact that Houston shot a season-high 16 of 34 from 3-point range — it’s that so many of their looks were completely uncontested.

BYU traveled to Houston to take on the no. 14 Houston Cougars. The game was never competitive, as Houston dominated BYU in every phase on their way

Knell had 9 points on 3-of-5 3-point shooting at the break for BYU, which shot just 4-of-14 from deep en route to a 39-22 halftime deficit. Houston outscored BYU 24-12 to open the second half, including a 12-2 run that stretched the lead to 29 on Arceneaux's 3-pointer with 11:41 remaining.
