''Every activity that we are going into they are looking to try to come at our leads the toughest because of the name across our boxes. As a group we don't go returning at them the same way.'' Poythress included 13 factors and Noel eight for the Wildcats, whose only benefit was outrebounding the Holds 48-37 along with a 21-6 advantage in unpleasant gets returning. After following for the first 15 moments Baylor took its first cause at 20-19 on Jackson's 3-pointer and remained near before ending the 50 % with a 12-2 run for a 34-29 cause.

''We performed area protection,'' Attracted said, ''and I think in the last, last season when we performed them we primarily unquestionably whole activity in man protection and that didn't perform out too well. So, we tried something different.'' For Baylor, the experience offered some vengeance after The state of ky defeat the Holds in last seasons Top stage Eight en path to its 8th nationwide headline. ''It indicates a lot to us,'' said Holds ahead Cory Jefferson, who obtained 10 factors. ''We performed them last season in the Top stage Eight; everybody knows that did not go so well. We used that as inspiration. We viewed the movie on everything we did incorrect and used all throughout the weeks time to be ready for what we had to do against The state of ky.'' It took a little while for Baylor to get going and from there the Holds didn't let up. They led by as many as 10 in the second 50 % and never let The state of ky approach than three factors.

I think I did not have enough contact.''
