Baylor Bears (Postponed from Feb. 10; new date to be determined)

There appears to be a wide gap between No. 1 Gonzaga and No. 2 Baylor and the rest of college basketball.  Baylor is undefeated through 17 games, and eight points is the closest any Big 12 team has come to defeating coach Scott Drew’s team. The Bears’ average margin of victory is 24 points.

The Sooners played at Baylor on Jan. 6 and lost 76-61. Baylor has the best complement of scorers in the conference and, and the Bears play strong team defense and are deadly from three-point range. The game in Norman will probably be closer, but will not result in an upset — Baylor wins.
