Why Oklahoma State Will Win

Oklahoma State rallied back to beat West Virginia 72-69 by shooting just a wee bit better, coming up with more rebounds, and by hitting six more free throws than the Mountaineers.

Now the Cowboys get a third crack at Baylor after losing 81-66 in January and 81-70 just a few days ago. they might have been losses, but the team shot well.

Baylor struggled to get by Kansas State in its first game in the Big 12 Tournament, it hasn’t been quite the same team it was before a long layoff, and if the Cowboys can just be stronger from three and a wee bit better on the boards, they’ll have a shot. However …

Why Baylor Will Win

Yeah, Baylor hasn’t been quite as dominant as it was before missing three weeks, but it’s still winning. It’s 5-1, it got by Texas Tech, West Virginia, and Oklahoma State, too.

No, the Kansas State game wasn’t easy, but that’s sort of what Kansas State does – it plays tough, fights the good fight, and then it loses.

The Bears continue to be special from the field – making way over half of their shots in the last four games since the Kansas loss – and they continue to come through with the big shots in the key moments to keep control of games.

What’s Going To Happen

It’s hard to beat a team three times, but Baylor is just too good from the field.

Oklahoma State has the offense to keep up, and Cade Cunningham is always an X factor who could take over the game by himself, but Baylor will keep making baskets.

A few extra Cowboy turnovers in the second half will be just enough to get the Bears over the top.

Why Baylor Will Win

Everything keeps on humming with one of the nation’s best offenses, great shooting from the outside, and the best ball movement in the Big 12.

Keep the passes swinging around, force a ton of mistakes, get up and running when needed and generate easy points. It all keeps working in win after win, even when the threes aren’t quite falling at the over 40% pace the team is used to.

Again, it’s all about the ball movement, getting to the way-high 40% mark nine times in the 13 games. Oklahoma State’s perimeter defense is fine, but it’s not special. However …

Why Oklahoma State Will Win

The Cowboys can bring the defensive pressure.

Baylor is better at it, but Oklahoma State is terrific at forcing mistakes and it’s great at getting on the boards and getting enough on the offensive glass to come up with key second-chance points.

No, Oklahoma State can’t move the ball like Baylor can, and it doesn’t shoot as well from the outside, but the scoring punch is there to keep up if and when this gets into an offensive show. The three-point shooting is on, hitting above 42% in three of the last four games, winning all three.

What’s Going To Happen

It’s going to be a whole lot of fun.

Both offenses will got off, both teams will go on runs, and both will hit well enough from the outside to generate a few interesting swings. Both teams are playing well, both teams are shooting well enough to come back when down.

Baylor will force a few more mistakes and will do a bit more to clamp down defensively in the final minutes. The Bear defense will hold serve.
