Saturday we asked the rhetorical question whether scoring 47 points against West Virginia at home constituted hitting the proverbial “rock bottom.” The No. 2 Baylor Bears made it clear that Buddy Bell was right. It can always get worse. Baylor humiliated the Wildcats 107-59 Wednesday night in Waco.
It was a game for two minutes, with the Cats executing a nice set play for a lob and DaJuan Gordon lay-up to knot the score at 2-2. After that, it was a shooter’s gallery on standstill, and the lavender-clad Wildcats were stationary targets. Baylor (15-0, 8-0 Big 12) scored the next 18 points to secure a 20-2 lead and, let’s face it, the game.
