TCU is without 2 of its best 3 players. Sit here and make all the excuses you wish. This is a piss poor performance in a game Baylor has no business losing
I honestly think Lampkin being out makes this a tougher matchup for us because it puts quicker bigs on the floor and negates Flo's utility/impact.

We're lucky Miles is out, though, because this would likely be over if he was playing.

If we can figure out how to stop the cutting, we can win this.

Basketball games are never over. You just need to find a spark to make a run.

The thing that makes us frustrating is we have trouble stacking stops, so we can't grow or protect leads.

We fight, though. No one should ever question this team's heart -- or that of any Scott Drew-coached team, for that matter.

Gonna be a bummer for florda and PaperBear when they have to stop jerking prior to completion because we come back and win this thing.

The best way is to stop the penetrator without help, but we haven't shown we can do that.

And it's still probably not over..I wouldn't even want some of you guys on my Sunday night co Ed softball team..down 9 with over 10 minutes and declaring the game over.. laughable.
historian

Sometimes I have to stop reading these things because so many people will declare the game lost with several minutes left. Some of that today.

No idea why we guard them soClose behind the arc.

Although they beat us with 3s to finish the game in waco and half

I don't know why either. You want them to take those shots. Give them a cushion and stop the drive.

It might be over for the Frogs, but not for Baylor.

We have the lead after Flagler makes the free throws. And we have momentum.
