Both Baylor coach Scott Drew and USC coach Andy Enfield see a lot of similarities in the seasons of the two teams. WacoTrib’s John Werner has this story at BearsExtra.
The Bears won their first 15 games and reached No. 1 for the first time in school history before losing to West Virginia. The Trojans won their first 14 games before losing to Oregon.
“They’re a lot like us,” Enfield said. “They started out the year undefeated and they had some injuries like we did, and then they finished strong. I think it’s two very good basketball teams that have similar strengths, and I think it’s going to come down to who can execute what they do better.
