 Baylor Bears Basketball National Champions T Shirt

Baylor Bears Today was the first game since Scott Drew’s first season that his team is above .500 as a program, just another milestone in the long reconstruction Coach Drew has conducted in Waco. Shout out to the great Fran Frascilla for that factoid.

Jared Butler and Davion Mitchell, who struggled today with 7 and 6 turnovers, respectively, iced the game with free throws as time wound down.

For their turnover woes, the Baylor Bears trio scored the ball well. Mitchell scored 23 points, Butler 18 points, and MaCio Teague a game high 24 points. Baylor shot 41% from three and 93% from the line to make up for the abysmal turnover rate.

Teague and Mitchell came up big in the second half. Their ability to attack off the dribble really showed as they blew past their defender, either getting to the rim or floating it in over the rotation big man. Without their offense — and defense — Baylor would have been in deep trouble today. Their scoring gave Baylor a 6-0 run and a 9 points lead with just under 10 minutes remaining in the game. Mitchell’s next jumper gave Baylor its first double-digit lead of the game.

Baylor Bears Kansas State hung around all game, though. Davion Bradford (18 pts), who scored 15 points in the first half, continued to give Baylor fits in the pick-and-roll. The Bears simply could not get their interior defense straight, leaving the Wildcat big wide open under the rim again and again.

A rash of turnovers from Baylor let the Wildcats creep back into the game, bringing the game to 68-63 with just 2 minutes remaining. Then Teague scored a layup and free throws put it out of reach.
