for us to win a game like this Baylor has to be cold shooting and we need to stop turning the ball over and have production from Tyrese and Gabe.

pretty much sums it up for me.

Ok, don't let them any further than 10 points. Anything is possible if within 10 with 5 to go.

Hunter is poor today, and that sucks for us 'cuz we can't/shouldn't bench him. His decision making and touch today have been very bad. Enaruna and Brockington are the whole team so far.

Seeing Baylor crush all their unguarded 3s hurts, too. We haven't had a team do that well in years.

We aren't hitting anything and are only down 10. Seems like we should be down 20. Gotta start hitting threes. I just want to be down like 6 or less at half.

Our defense has Baylor settling for threes. The problem is they keep making them. Akinjo and Meyer shooting way better than their average.

Can't lie, makes me a little sad to have Fran in the building praising the other team so much. (Deservedly so, obviously.)

We have also not had to use the starters the whole game. We are in good shape for the second half.

Baylor is ranked #1 for a reason. I love it that there's no quit in our guys though.

they have been a very clear #1 and you can tell it pains espn and media voters to put a nonKU Big 12 team in that #1 spot even if they are an undefeated defending national champ.

If KU or a big ten or big east or ACC defending champ was 12-0 nobody else would have got a #1 vote all season.

So far good games from Brockington and Enaruna. Need one more player to step up for us to have a chance, and two players for us to really look good.
