Baylor is in mid-season form. Hopefully this preps us for what Michigan State is going to do in conference.

Hopefully Miller and Kofi will be motivated by this.

Ayo simply can't operate. Baylor's thrown body after body on him. They're good. Really damn good.

Can't practice against this kind of quickness.

Well that missed 3 at 2:02 probably does it. No comeback tonight. Looking forward to seeing how this team progresses.

How to defend the pick and roll?

I hate to say it - this is not a final four team at this point in time. It sickens me to see us ranked this high and let the game to shit. Ayo a non factor, and Kofi in foul trouble the first half. We just don't final four depth.

Positive notes: geogi, and freshman play

Beat dook and mizzoo and I will forget about this one

I never believed this was a Final Four team to begin with. Hell I thought our initial #8 ranking was too high. Don't think we're quite there but I still believe we have the firepower to get us there. Still early.

I loved what I saw from Curbelo tonight. He played more in control and made some nice passes. Think we're all gonna be less and less frustrated with him as the year progresses.

Baylor is just better right now. I expect them to beat Gonzaga. I think the Illini will improve as the freshman and everyone else jell.

Defensive coaching can use a ton of improvement.

Agree with what has been said. Lots of work to do on both sides of the ball. Again out coached by large margin.


We looked like complete a$$ on offense. Ayo is good in open floor- can't beat a good defender off the dribble. A wing guard better off the ball trying to play lead guard. Forcing shots and poor judgement. Never kicks out with guys draped all over him. Looked every bit like the the late second rounder/FA he showed last year early and we simply look bad when he tries to do too much.
Needs a ball screen and off the ball screens and we apparently do not run that in whatever the he11 Underwood calls an offense.
We do not get anybody else involved in the offense. All shts and grins versus Little Sisters AT&T.

Baylor is Final Four caliber team and if their bigs develop at all in conversation for title. That defense and perimeter players will keep them in every game against anyone.
We really looked over matched and were sluggish as he11 in second half.
Kofi is a not a good defender. Leaves his feet constantly and has bad footwork.
Pretty disappointing TBH.

Baylor was better than us in the first half, and cranked it up in the 2nd half to a level we cant match. They just looked way too quick and athletic for us, at every position.
We can learn from this, but we're not going to get quicker or more athletic.
We're going to have to learn to play some zone to protect Kofi
