BYU Cougars have to control the tempo against Florida

The key to tonight's BYU-Florida game is controlling the tempo of the game. The ESPN blog got it right with the following commentary:

Simply put, the Gators have to control the game. You can't run up and down with BYU. You have to make Fredette grind it out in the half court, and you have to do your best to pressure him with multiple defenders without giving up easy looks for Emery and Hartsock.

Jimmer Fredette could have a tough time against Florida's set defense (or maybe not), but we know he can destroy them on the fast break. Remember BYU's MWC loss to San Diego State? In that game, Jimmer and company lost control of the tempo, and ended up looking tired and out-of-sync. Tonight, BYU needs to wear Florida out with a fast-paced game.
