Baylor MBB vs Oklahoma: Three Stats that Will Decide the Game

Back from a successful road trip to Ames, the #1 ranked Baylor Men’s Basketball team (13-0, 1-0 Big 12) hosts the unranked Oklahoma Sooners (11-2, 1-0 Big 12).

Either way, here are the three stats to keep an eye on during the game!

Oklahoma is elite at scoring inside the arc. They make an incredible 61% of their two point field goal attempts (2nd in the country), but they also shoot a fair number of threes (42% of their shots, 102nd in the country).
