Baylor Advances to the Sweet Sixteen over Wisconsin 76-63

The Baylor Bears (1) beat the Wisconsin Badgers (9) 76-63 en route to the Sweet Sixteen for the first time since they fell to Wisconsin in 2014.

Today, Baylor was the team every Baylor fan hoped they would see in the NCAA Tournament. The defense was intense and connected, and the shooting was almost unstoppable. Baylor shot 47% from three and forced 14 turnovers from a Badgers team that averaged fewer than 10 per game.

Davion Mitchell was magnificent. His 16 points came on 6-8 shooting, including 2-3 from deep. His 8 assists were a game high, and they came from everywhere.
