How Manu Lecomte Led Baylor to Victory Over Kansas
After losing 11 straight games to Kansas and sitting at just 4-7 in Big 12 play, not many expected the Bears to beat the Jayhawks. But Manu Lecomte told the media on Friday that, “I think we’re the team that’s learned the most. I think we’re ready to play them tomorrow.”
Lecomte was right. Baylor notched a dominant victory over Kansas, 80-64.
The win wasn’t easy though. With 9:28 left, Kansas cut the deficit to 51-49. After Baylor blew a 61-56 lead—with less than three minutes remaining—in Allen Fieldhouse, Baylor seemed on the path to another loss to Kansas.
