#15 WVU plays Western Kentucky for the Crossover Basketball Tournament championship at 1:30 p.m. on ESPN in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

Beware of the big dude for Western. Oscar needs to avoid fouling out around this guy.

The Mountaineers MUST handle the ball better against double-teaming. Math tells you that, if there are 2 on the ball-handler then there has to be one WVU player open. Find him!

#6 Kansas plays St. Joseph’s at 2 p.m. on Fox Sports 1 in Fort Myers, Florida.

#14 Texas Tech plays Sam Houston State at 2 p.m. on ESPNU in Lubbock, Texas.

Those 3 and Oklahoma probably will be battling for the Big 12 championship.

I thought Baylor was supposed to be the best team in the Big XII this year. No?
 
Baylor was picked in the preseason poll.

We will see with them.

Their young freshman who are talented will determine where they are at.
Because their backcourt of Teague, Butler and Vital is legit.

Same thing inside. They aren't as strong but they will need the young players to step up.

Baylor was picked to finish 1st. They have their guards back and will be a tough out and should be the favorite.
 
Baylor starting Line up 3 seniors and 2 juniors.
Jared Butler - G | 6-3 | Jr. | Reserve, La.
Davion Mitchell - G | 6-2 | Jr. | Hinesville, Ga.
MaCio Teague - G | 6-3 | Sr. | Cincinnati, Ohio
Mark Vital - F | 6-5 | Sr. | Lake Charles, La.
Tristan Clark - F | 6-10 | Sr. | San Antonio, Texas

Transfer Guard
Adam Flager - G G | 6-3 | So. | Duluth, Ga.

Up front, the Bears must replace defensive anchor Freddie Gillespie, one of the best stories in recent memory. Mark Vital steps into the middle of Baylor’s elite defense after a phenomenal junior campaign. He’s an early favorite for national defensive player of the year. With Gillespie gone, a healthy Tristan Clark should provide a post scoring presence that the Bears didn’t have last season. Joining the bigs is UNLV transfer Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua, a strong, athletic frontcourt player.

If Butler and the returning guards can take another step forward, Baylor is one of a handful of teams that could raise the trophy in 2021.

 
Tech has a lot of work to do to compete with Baylor

Everyone in the conference does.

Their guards will eat you alive if you aren't ready to play


But Tech showed some balls today. Their guards responded in the second half.
But going to be hard for them to be consistent.

We will see where Baylor is by the end of the week
Same with Texas
Same with Kansas
Will see how Tech responds because Mike Anderson and St John's isn't an easy game because he wants his guards to eat the opposition up
