The Central Arkansas Bears struggled on the road to begin the 2024-25 college basketball season as they lost to the BYU Cougars 88-50. These teams are nowhere close to one another in terms of talent or production and that was evident from the jump. Center Keba Keita dominated defensively with 10 rebounds, one steal, and one block while also tallying six points.

The Bears (0-1) will look to bounce back after this game while the Cougars (1-0) used this game ahead of their tougher matchup against the UC Riverside Anteaters on Friday. Let’s take a deeper dive into the box scores to discuss how this game played out.

Central Arkansas vs BYU Game Summary

This game was not remotely close as the Central Arkansas Bears were completely outmatched in this game. One of the major issues for the Bears was the inability to connect on 7-of-31 from beyond the arc.

The BYU Cougars were able to do well with four players (Catchings, Saunders, Denim, Boskovic) each scoring 10+ points in this game to lead the way. They were able to shoot the ball at a better rate as they made 45.8% of their shots as a team and only had to use a 10-man rotation.
