Baylor MBB vs Northwestern State: Three Stats That Will Decide The Game

In their last game before conference play, the #1 ranked Baylor Men’s Basketball team (11-0) hosts the Northwestern State Demons (3-10). As I alluded to last week, this is the biggest mismatch remaining in the season for the Bears.

If this game is ever in doubt, these will be the three reasons why.

Three Point Offense

Northwestern State is demonstrably bad on defense. They allow teams to score on 57% of their two point shots (351st in the country) and 36% of their three point shots (305th in the country). Baylor is excellent on two point shots, making 57% (29th in the country), and above average on three point shots, making 35% (115th in the country).
