Baylor (17-16) advances to the semis of the College Basketball Crown in Las Vegas after thumping Minnesota (15-18). Next up for the Bears is a Saturday match-up against Oklahoma (20-15) who got by Colorado.


Positives

  • The win ensures the Bears will not have a losing season for the 19th straight season. It's been a frustrating year, but what a remarkable feat for Scott Drew and staff.  
  • There was outstanding focus and defense for the Bears, holding Minnesota to 0.81 points per possession.  
  • The free throw defense was on point (47%).
  • Arguably Obi Agbim's best all-around game as a Bear.

Needs Work

  • I love Isaac Williams IV, but he’s more effective on the court than on the bench. He needs to stay out of foul trouble.  
  • The high school band that was hired to play all the teams fight songs (cool), but they can’t play Baylor’s?  Baylor’s Old Fite had to be played as a recording.
