Houston's playing so bad Kenny had to pick them. I was out in the yard picking up sticks so I missed that. I thought the game came on at 5:00 Central.

False. Easy to say that when they are playing the 1st or 2nd best team in the country. Baylor is just that good.
It’s been the same thing all tournament. They should have lost to Rutgers and Oregon St. Is Baylor really good? Absolutely. Let’s not act like Houston is some juggernaut who is having a bad night. They are bad offensively, period.

Not true, but you're entitled to be wrong.

In the first round there were several posters claiming that this tournament was proof that defense was what matters. That good offense was overrated. Then Gonzaga played.

Gonzaga doesn't play bad defense. Quite the contrary. Gonzaga is a very good defensive team. They just have so many possessions in the game. According to Kenpom they play the 6th fastest pace in the country(still give up less than 70pts a game). Baylor is a very good defensive basketball team as well only giving up 66 points a game.

They are the 2 best teams because they are 2 of the best offensive and defensive teams in the country. It's a hell of a recipe for success.

Baylor finna win my work pool for me. Everyone in contention has Gonzaga in the ship. I’m the only one with Baylor in the title game.

This would be one of the biggest meltdowns if Baylor doesn’t hold this lead.

Even in the NCAAT when you get a 25-pt lead you can have some easing of intensity. Baylor will get it back pretty quickly I suppose.

3 guys with their hands on the ball and they give Baylor a timeout lol. Im not saying anything about the officiating. Just that one play. That's an awful call.

Talk about letting a ball player get away. Teague is from Cincinnati and neither UC or XU wanted him. He went to UNC Asheville then transferred to Baylor.

Baylor isn't going anywhere next year either. They are losing some, but they are bringing guys who are going to replace what they lose. Might struggle a little earlier with Butler likely leaving, but if you watched Langston Love this past week he's going to be a fantastic player. From what Ive seen at the Geico championship he's an easy 5-star player and can play point guard.
And Kendall Brown from Sunrise
