No. 8 Baylor men’s basketball secured its first win of the season over No. 16 Arkansas on Saturday at American Airlines Center, 72-67. In a no-doubter which saw the Bears lead for over 38 minutes of game time – they never trailed.
“It’s a memory that’ll last them,” Baylor head coach Scott Drew said of knocking off a ranked team in an NBA arena. “These guys will remember this for the rest of their life.”
Led by fifth-year forward Norchad Omier, who earned Player of the Game honors in the first-ever “Dallas Duel,” the Bears put on a dominant performance inside the arc.
