Baylor, Big 12 look to keep upper hand against SEC

By Nathan Keil | Sports Editor

Baylor men’s basketball will look to keep its Big 12/SEC Challenge record blemish-free as the Bears travel to Gainesville, Fla., to take on No. 20 Florida at 11 a.m. Saturday.

The two schools have only met once before, with Baylor earning a 72-71 win as part of the Cabrillo Classic in San Diego in 1981. However, the teams got a look at each other in the 2017 Sweet Sixteen, with both schools falling victim to South Carolina. Baylor head coach Scott Drew said he knows the Gators will pose a significant challenge.
