The number one rule when confronting a bear. Don’t hurt it unless you can kill it.
Baylor came into the game injured, without LJ Cryer or Jonathan Tchamwa-Tchatchoua. Kansas ran out to a 16-4 lead. Ochai Agbaji was rolling, Christian Braun was smirking, and David McCormack looked like a competent basketball player. It looked like Kansas had killed the Bears.
Then Baylor started to play angry.
“I know our team looked a little bit different at the beginning of the year than they do now, but don’t count these guys out,” Drew said.
The final score of 80-70 for the Baylor Bears (24-5) over the Kansas Jayhawks (23-5) almost underplays how phenomenal a game this was.
