How Tired Are Baylor’s Legs?

The big question for Baylor is do they have any legs left? On Thursday the Bears faced off against St John’s and it took double overtime but they were able to secure the 99-98 victory. In the second half, they outscored St John’s 47-33 to even tie up the game and make overtime. The Bears shot 42.2 percent from the field and 51.7 percent from behind the three-point line. Norchad Omier had a strong game putting up 24 points, 10 rebounds, and three assists. There were six different players that put up at least 10 points. The Bears are averaging 88.4 points while their defense is giving up 74.8 points per game. The offense is ranked 29th while the defense is ranked 252nd. 

Tennessee Defense Dominated

Tennessee faced off against Virginia on Thursday and the defense stepped up to secure the win. Tennessee only scored 64 points, but the defense gave up only 42 points and they ended up winning by 22 points. They allowed the Cavaliers to only hit 28.9 percent of their shots from the field and that defense is going to need to be good here. The Volunteers are averaging 83.2 points while their defense is giving up 57.2 points per game. The offense is ranked 92nd while the defense is ranked 96th. In this game, the Volunteers need to take advantage of the extra tired legs of Baylor. Tennessee will take on UT Martin and Syracuse following this game.

Baylor vs Tennessee Prediction

This total is too high. Baylor’s tired legs are going to really hurt their offense, and that is going to be the difference here. Tennessee’s defense was good on Thursday, and they are going to be good here. This is going to be a close game, but it’s going to be both teams’ defense that is going to be the difference here, as this game is going to end up under the total. Back the under to cash here.
