Sloppy first 13 minutes of basketball by the Baylor Bears. 10 turnovers already. Kansas State shooting at least 60%. They are getting too many points near the basket. Shocking to see Baylor with such a slim lead. Bears need to elevate their level of play on both ends of the basketball court the final 7 minutes of the 1st Half.
