2. Baylor Bears

Previous Ranking: 7

Record: 20-1 (7-1 Big 12)

Baylor scored two close victories last week over Texas Tech and at Ole Miss. The Bears visit Kansas next for a huge showdown between ranked teams.

I highlighted Johnathan Motley against the Rebels, but it was ultimately Manu Lecomte who led the team with 17 points, four rebounds, and four assists. Lecomte also hit five big threes in the road win. Forwards Motley and Jo Lual-Acuil Jr. each scored 16 for the Bears. Those two posts are the key to upsetting Kansas’ weak interior tonight in Lawrence. Baylor is definitely one of the Elite Eight/Final Four teams in my eyes.
