BYU basketball takes on the UCF Knights in Big 12 Conference action on Saturday afternoon in Orlando.
Both teams are squarely on the “Bubble” for NCAA Tournament projections. A win for BYU could give the Cougars a coveted Quad One victory, while a win for UCF would provide a Quad Two victory on their resume.

BYU basketball comes into the game on a three-game winning streak and is 14-6 overall and 5-4 in Big 12 play. UCF squandered a nine-point second-half lead at Kansas in their last outing to fall 91-87 to the Jayhawks.
The Knights are 4-5 in Big 12 play, with all five losses coming against Top-15 teams in the KenPom ratings.
Saturday afternoon will be the fourth meeting all-time between the two programs. All of the previous three meetings occurred last year in their inaugural seasons in the Big 12.
BYU swept the three meetings last season, including a 63-58 win in Orlando, which was BYU’s first-ever Big 12 win.
