We really need him, but not necessarily to meet this challenge. He has to adjust his game to the officiating

Baylor is currently shooting 71.4%. WOW! The first 13+ minutes of basketball have been fun to watch for SicEm365 members, and Baylor Nation too.

Getting a little lax on D when DM went out. Still fine. They cannot stay in front of us


Not sure if we are lax or afraid to play tough defense the way the zebras are calling the game

We gotta keep up the pace and intensity. Don't sit on the lead and get caught spectating. We tend to fall into a lull with large leads.

Finish the 1st Half strong, and Baylor can take a double digit lead into Halftime.

The dumbest ****ing play by Flagler and turns into an NBA 3 ball for Ark that he drains.

So far if Ark drives we part the red sea in the paint now... we'll be eaten alive if the guys don't start closing.
