Baylor men’s basketball has shown spurts of brilliance this season, garnering comments from the likes of TCU coach Trent Johnson, who claimed that the Bears are one of the most talented teams in the country.
But those stretches of offensive firepower and defensive intensity are often accompanied by defensive breakdowns and an inability to score on the other end.
Tuesday’s road loss to Oklahoma is a perfect example of such inconsistency.
The Bears were shell shocked in the first half, losing by as many as 26 points in what looked to be an embarrassing loss.
The second half was a different story, however, as Baylor put together an impressive 21-2 run to take the lead from the Sooners with two minutes remaining in the game before giving up the lead and eventually the game.
