Stillwater, OK—The Baylor (22-5, 12-3 Big 12) players were stiffing laughs at halftime as their coach Nicki Collen attempted to drive home a heated message that there was nothing funny about their performance in the first 20 minutes.
“I had a heated halftime speech,” Coach Collen said afterwards, but also said some players were laughing because of the subject matter she was addressing. Collen said they were “more concerned with having a snow day or snow party” than playing the game.
And Baylor was up nine, 34-25, at the break.
The concerns were valid, however, as Oklahoma State (8-16, 3-12 Big 12) jumped out to a 7-0 lead in just over three minutes.
