Baylor will not score at least 100 points today. They likely will finish in the low 90's though. Baylor should take care of business vs Kansas State, then get a better challenge vs either West Virginia or Oklahoma State tomorrow.

Oklahoma State advances to the Semifinals of the 2021 Big XII MBB Tournament, and will await Baylor tomorrow. I think Baylor matches up better vs Oklahoma State than West Virginia on a neutral court. Less than an hour before tip-off between Baylor and Kansas State on ESPN.

We are so bad at the 5 on D, regardless which one is playing. That is the achilles heel that causes me concern with the wrong matchup in the NCAAs.

This defense was elite, the defense they've played since the Covid return could cause an early exit. The defense has got to improve. It's not like KSU is taking/making hard shots.

This is KSU's season. Bears need to show more 'want to win'.

Everyone's done their scouting job on us correctly. We are awful against backdoor cuts.
