You can’t tell just how good BYU is when it plays Central Arkansas, but you can tell that Egor Demin will make the Cougars appointment TV. 18, 11 assists, four rebounds, and three steals in his debut. A special talent.

One benefit of BYU playing on election night when few teams are playing is that Egor Demin is the talk of college basketball right now
