Postgame Podcast & Five Thoughts: Baylor 95, No. 3 Illinois 91

Five thoughts after Baylor men’s basketball’s 95-91 exhibition win over No. 3 Illinois on Friday night.

1. I love that Baylor had three games against high-level opponents (Oklahoma, Florida, Illinois) and were able to perform at a high level down the stretch. Kayden Mingo (Penn State) was big time in all three contests, averaging 25 points per game, getting to the paint at will, and playing with composure in clutch moments.
