Looking at conf game stats:

Scoring:
#5 BYU: 75.3
#3 UCF: 78.7

Defense:
#9 BYU: 70.6
#16 UCF: 84.4

3 pt %
#1 BYU: 37.4%
#3 UCF: 35.9%

NOTE: UCF (10.2) is #1 and BYU (9.6) is #2 in number of made 3's per game.

FT's
#1 UCF: 77.8%
#10 BYU: 69.6%

Interesting stat: Opponent FT %(Could be because of BYU's crazy student section)
BYU: 63.7% (2nd lowest)
UCF: 75.9% (2nd highest)
Could also reflect on what players get to the line...aka UCF fouls more guards while BYU fouls more bigs who normally don't shoot well from the line.

Offensive Rebounding:
#3 UCF: 12.6 per game
#11 BYU: 10.1

Defensive Rebounding:
#6 BYU: 24.0 per game
#11 UCF: 22.6

What kills UCF is UCF is giving up more total rebounds per game than any other team in the Big 12.
Opponent combined rebounds per game:
#3 BYU: 31.6 per game
#16 UCF: 42.1

UCF needs BYU to have a cool night shooting from 3 (and a warm night for our Knights) and UCF will have to break through BYU's bigs to get rebounds as they don't give up many at all.
