Jimmer Fredette sizzles...Wildcats fizzle

In the Stands Report by Bookemdano: BYU guard Jimmer Fredette broke the single-game scoring record at McKale Center last night, pouring in 49 points.

Fredette came within 20 points of out-scoring Arizona as the 13-1 Cougars rolled to a 99-69 lopsided win. It was quite a performance as the junior guard hit 16 of 23 from the field, including 9 of 13 three-pointers.

He tossed in 8 of 9 free throws and dished out 9 assists, while hauling in 7 rebounds. I've witnessed a lot of games at McKale, but I've never seen a performance like the one I witnessed last night. Why didn't we have an answer for Fredette? Couldn't we at least foul him a few times? It was almost like the Wildcats were doing the same thing I was doing: watching in awe as Fredette hit nothing but net for 37 minutes.

By the way, Fredette left the game with three minutes remaining. The Wildcats didn't stop Fredette from scoring more than 50 points...his coach did!
