Baylor collapses late in loss to Kansas

By Ben Everett | Sports Writer

For the second straight year, Baylor men’s basketball had a chance to win at Kansas in the final minute. And for the second straight year, the Bears could not convert on offense down the stretch.

The Bears (12-7, 2-5) dropped to 0-15 all-time in Allen Fieldhouse with a 70-67 loss to the Jayhawks (16-3, 6-1) Saturday night in Lawrence, Kan.

With 17 seconds left, the Bears got the ball back down just one point. Senior guard Manu Lecomte put his head down, drove to the hoop and put up a contested floater off the glass that missed off the front of the rim.
