Akinjo, Flagler. Flagler, Akinjo, This is how the Baylor offense started, and it’s what defined it in the Bears 84-74 win over Oklahoma Tuesday night.
Despite aggressive drives and good offense from Oklahoma, Baylor weathered the early storm yet again... until the Sooners slipped up. In a two minute span, Baylor took a 1 point lead at the 11-minute mark and turned it into an 8-point lead over the next 77 seconds.
Akinjo showed the 3-level scorer he can be yet again. A smooth left-handed layup put Baylor on top 13-12. A few pull up 3’s and a few midrange jumpshots had him with 13 points at the half.
