Yep. Thanks SING. Most Baylor thing ever to skip sports to practice for a musical.

Good start for Agbim on offense.

I'm just going to say it, if you can't get a score/clock graphic on the screen, you shouldn't broadcasting major college basketball games.

Yessoufou with the brick assist!

Colorado is bad ... especially on defense.

He said in this game not for the year

Thank you. I knew I had to hear that wrong.

Where has this been all year Obi?!

He has 3 threes!

Agbim is starting to heat up. He's a good player who has shot poorly to this point (against good competition; his 3-point percentage is still good overall).

I wish we could say the same thing about Rataj, but he's just not good -- as he showed in missing a two-foot floater off nothing but backboard within seconds of entering the game.

Agbim is averaging over 15 per game the last three games. He's been playing well for a couple of weeks now.

First media time out. We looked outstanding on both ends!

16-6

Confess this is the first time I've watched Colorado this year. How the heck have they won 3 conference games?

Unfortunately.
BUBradley

He is on the court but hes not playing per usual
Big12Fan2024
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Correct. He buried 3's to the tune of almost 50% against the mid majors and then was shooting 20% from 3 against P5 level squads. Like you said, he finally seems to be getting comfortable and confident as more shots are falling. If there's any chance of us reversing fortune and making the tournament, he's gonna have to be a big part of it and he's doing his part the past several games.

That was a good recovery by Nnaji. Shouldn't have been a foul on that block.
Big12Fan2024
How long do you want to ignore this user?
For as physical as they've let them play that was a touch foul on Nnaji.
BUBradley
How long do you want to ignore this user?
It's nice to see us fight this hard given where we are. Hope!

Rataj has a twin on Colorado (Holland). Both look like they're walking on 60-year-old knees.

Yessoufou with the 3!

21-8!
