need a significant increase in focus and effort to pull off this road win. Markis McDuffie promised Baylor fans a sweep last year. "No one beats us in our house." We will see if he is correct Saturday.

They've lost 4 in his house since he said that.

Excited to see how the new faces perform in a very rowdy environment. Mason needs to be a steadying influence.

One of Mason's strengths was supposed to be ball handling. So far he looks like Lace Dunn losing ball after ball as he tries to dribble the ball carelessly through 2 defenders.

Tweener without a shot. Needs a Quincy Acy routine to get better.

This zone stinks. Don't have the rim protectors.

I feel like I was sold a bill of goods on his shooting ability. This is the second game he's looked awful from anything more than 5 feet.

Fugly.

And the CBS sports app is junk. I'm about to give up.

Thank you. I was wondering if I was the only one who thought that app was junk.
