I fully expect a typical Coach Drew play after timeout.

First couple of minute we looked ready to play. OU has been playing really good defense. Very aggressive and our guys can't seem to take advantage yet. Mayer might be our saving grace tonight. Lots of game yet to play

Seems like when we got the big early lead, we got way too loose. Can't let OU hang around, the got fire power that win in a close game

There we go. Give Cryer some PT. He'll shoot instead of dribbling the air out.

I feel more confident when I see Cryer on the court than Flagler. I know I'm probably the only one, but Cryer is more than just a shooter.

Love having the big lead but OU missed a lot of open 3's that would have made the game much closer

Great start to the half and great finish to the half. Not sure why we went to sleep in the middle. Maybe boredom.

Nice to see the team shake off that nasty stretch, play clean, play aggressive d, and push the lead out to 17. Feeling much better than I did a few minutes ago

First 6 minutes and last 3 minutes of the 1st Half were impressive by the Baylor Bears. I'll take a 17-point Halftime lead. Baylor shot 55.2%, while holding Oklahoma to 20.6% in the 1st Half.

Our bench has made 8 of 9 shots in the first half. That seems really good.
