No. 2 Baylor (22-2) fell to Oklahoma State (20-7) 83-74. While the defense remains an issue, the biggest impediment to Baylor’s success tonight was simple: the Bears were awful from three.
The Bears entered the game No. 1 in 3-point shooting. They’ve been great from beyond the arc all season. Last Sunday MaCio Teague went 10-of-12 from deep. As Baylor’s defense has been mediocre to maybe even bad since the return, the Bears have masked those issues by drilling triples.
Tonight Baylor couldn’t hit enough threes. The Bears finished 6-of-28 from three. They missed 16 in a row.
