Baylor Has Bounced Back Well

Baylor lost the first game of the season against Gonzaga but since that point, they have won two games in a row. Two games ago against Arkansas, they won 72-67 and in the last game against Sam Houston State, they scored 104 points on the way to the victory. In the last game, Baylor shot 58.6 percent from the field and 43.8 percent from behind the three-point line. Baylor had seven different players that put up at least 10 points and they are going to need the offense to run up the score again here. If they can continue to use balanced offensive attacks, they can find success all season. Baylor will play against St. John’s following this game.

Why Baylor Will Beat Tarleton State 

  • Baylor has won 35 of its last 40 night games against non-conference opponents.
  • Tarleton State has lost four of its last five night games.
  • Tarleton State has lost the first half in three of its last four games against non-conference opponents.

Long Season For Tarleton State?

It looks like it could be a long season for Tarleton State and the only win came against a non-D1 team. Two games ago against Florida State, Tarleton State scored only 52 points and they ended up losing by 20 points. In the last game against Tabor, they did bounce back and finally picked up their first win. Tarleton State scored 88 points and they ended up winning in blowout fashion. There were four different players that put up at least 11 points. One issue for this team is they don’t look like they are very deep. 

Tarleton State vs Baylor Prediction

As stated above, this Tarleton State team isn’t very deep and they are going to really struggle in this game. Baylor’s offense scored 104 points in the last game and they are going to do much of the same against this Tarleton defense. Baylor is going to go over the 100-point mark and this game is going to get out of hand early. Tarleton State will struggle to get to 50 points, and Baylor will win this game and cover the spread.
