Best stat for the Bears this half so far is:



10-12 from the FT line. This has been our 1 weaker area so far this year. Love to see this.

I don't see much difference, but he said that previously he had been positioning his hands wrong on the ball. Worked on lining up the seams so as to get a better rotation.

People may laugh, but I'm telling you now -- Loveday is green but he has some skills to work with and can really develop into a solid role guy over the next few years. He has a soft stroke and really good mobility. Has to improve strength, some fundamentals against other big buys, etc......but he has some skills to work with and Drew and staff have showed an ability to develop those skills.

Mayer has been driving with ease on these guys

107-8 non-conference home record since 2007 for Scott Drew and Baylor Bears basketball.

He's light years ahead of where a freshman Lomers was and Lomers wound up being a significant contributor by his senior year.

Matthew Mayer with a 3-point basket for Baylor. He has 14 points today. 77-36 Baylor lead with 11:53 to play in the 2nd Half.

StatMan

80 points for the Baylor Bears with 10:12 to play in this basketball game. Over/Under on reaching 120 points today? I'll say Over.
StatMan

Offense is flowing as freely for the Baylor Bears, like the Brazos River passing through the beautiful Baylor campus today.

Baylor needs a 3-point basket to reach double figures in back-to-back basketball games.

The trifecta for Jordan Turner! 9 points in 5 minutes of action. WOW! 95-54 Baylor lead with 5:22 to play in the 2nd Half.

Mitchell with the steal, then feeds Thumba for the dunk. Baylor leads 98-56 with 3:41 to play in the basketball game.

Don't get me wrong - I love watching Mitchell play on both ends of the floor, but what is he doing still on the floor at this point in this kind of a blowout?
