Best Bet for this Game
In the nick of time for the postseason, the Baylor Bears are showing signs of improvement. The three players that are considered to be the best on the Bears are all in their first season with the team.
The first-year students Walter and Missi are, and Dennis is a transplant from Toledo. As a result of their victory over the formidable Kansas Jayhawks in their most recent game, they no longer appear to be a loosely assembled collection of outstanding individuals.
The Baylor Bears have six players that score more over ten points per game on average, and they have very talented players in every position on the court.
Even if Love is not on the floor, the Bears still have Dennis and Nunn (10.8 PPG) in the backcourt, Missi and Bridges in the frontcourt, and Walter, an all-league player on the side. All of these players are on the court.
Because Texas possesses two guards who are 6 feet tall on the outside and is strong on the inside, they do not have a player who is capable of guarding Walter. To the Kobe In the most recent matchup between these two squads, Walter scored 22 points.
In addition, this game is about exacting revenge on the Longhorns for the fact that they lost the first game by a margin of two points. Baylor is not going to be able to defeat this Texas team much longer. In the end, the Bears will finish strong because they are getting into a routine.
Take Baylor to cover.
