What begins on the final Friday of 2016 in Norman, the Bears hope will help carry them to their first Big 12 basketball title. Baylor (12-0) takes on Oklahoma (6-5) at 6:00 on December 30th in Norman. In a season where expectations are much higher than they were just two months ago, what happens here will go a long way to determining if Baylor can end Kansas’ conference title run.
Oklahoma may be the second worst team in the Big 12. They have five losses and return just two starters from last season’s Final Four team. And it’s not just that Oklahoma lost three starters.
