Well, I had a public address announcing assignment Tuesday night and couldn't watch. But I tracked a little bit and got caught up.

I thought the Bears could be in for a tough performance. Maybe they win close or lose close. Didn't think this would happen.

A combination of Marquette putting the clamps on Baylor defensively forcing 16 turnovers in the first half, a 23-2 in where there nine consecutive made shots and no answer for Marquette's Olivier-Maxence Prosper who had 24 turned this into a blowout.

Then the Golden Eagles came out to the start the second half making their first six attempts. Baylor got no closer than 22.

Stunning. The Bears shot it fine but when you get turned over and can't stop the ball, you're asking for it. And the real concern about issues in the block appeared again.

Flo Thamba was a no show with 1 point and playing in foul trouble. West Virginia transfer Jalen Bridges is giving you the hmm against really good teams. He had eight in this one when it really didn't matter.

I don't know what they're going to do against Drew Timme and Gonzaga on Friday in Sioux Falls, S.D.

LJ Cryer led with 19. Adam Flagler with 16. Keyonte George 12.
