We have seen this matchup earlier in the season at Baylor where Baylor won 79 to 64. Baylor had 5 players in double figures and two others just missed. Jefferson and Austin had 26 rebounds between them.
Davies had a great game: 26 points and 17 boards. Hawes had 13 and was second in boards with 4.
No doubt that BYU is playing better and home court was a very important factor in Baylor's win. But it seems that BYU is going to have to get someone else on the boards. Why not just box Davies out?
Jackson is playing awesome right now. How is BYU going to stop his penetration? He can get to the rim when every he wants. BYU is not known for their defense. Too many things have to go right for BYU to cover. They have to hit their 3s and Davies has to have a repeat performance on the boards. This is Baylor's game to win if they are motivated. So far, they seem interested in winning the NIT. You would think that playing in Madison Square Garden would be enough motivation for anyone. I have to take Baylor -3, not sure about the over/under. Sets up for a high scoring game. Baylor/Providence just fell short of 150 last game.
