Baylor Bears
Last time out, Baylor hosted the Kansas State Wildcats and lost a 97-95 overtime thriller. This could go down as one of the games of the college basketball regular season as it was back-and-forth for the entire 45 minutes. Baylor never led by more than six points, trailed by as much as eight, and lost outright as eight-point home favorites.
Keyonte George had 22 points, five rebounds, two assists, and three steals on the night. Adam Flagler added 23 points, one rebound, seven assists, one steal, and one block in the defeat.
Through 15 games, Baylor is scoring 80.9 points per game, shooting 46.2% from the field, and assisting on 16.9 made shots. The Bears are allowing 69.8 points, grabbing 36.5 rebounds, blocking 3.3 shots, and stealing the ball 8.8 times.
West Virginia Mountaineers
West Virginia welcomed the third-ranked Kansas Jayhawks and were comfortably beaten 76-62. The Mountaineers led 6-2 early on and that was the biggest, and last, lead they would see all day. Kansas went on to put on an impressive performance and had this game in control throughout. WVU never led by more than four, trailed by as many as 22 points, and could not cover the +1.5-point spread.
Tre Mitchell had 15 points, five rebounds, one assist, and one steal on the night. Erik Stevenson added 12 points, three rebounds, three assists, and one steal in the defeat.
After 15 games, West Virginia is scoring 78.3 points per game, shooting 47.0% from the field, and assisting on 14.2 made shots. The Mountaineers are allowing 68.0 points, grabbing 35.7 rebounds, blocking 2.7 shots, and stealing the ball 7.1 times.
