TCU HORNED FROGS VS BAYLOR BEARS PICKS AND PREDICTION

I need to pick up the pace from last week, and I need to start this week with a winner on Monday night so I am turning to the most important game on the Monday night NCAA hoops schedule.

Slide down to the bottom of the board because this TCU vs Baylor game is the last game of the night, and boy, do I expect another round of points to come our way from this Big 12 affair in Fort Worth.

Let’s not make the mistake of thinking we will get lucky enough to see a repeat of what happened on January 27th when these two teams met. After overtime, the Horned Frogs came away with a 105 – 102 win on Baylor’s home court, and this is a big game for both of these programs tonight.

TCU and Baylor have identical 8 – 6 records in Big 12 play, and they also have equivalent 19 – 8 records overall. The 20-win mark for any team is a benchmark on the locker room chalkboard, and the winner of this game will be right on the heels of Kansas for the third seed in the Big 12 Conference Tournament.

Trust me when I tell you I am not banking on the fact that these two teams put up 208 in the first meeting back in January as the only reason I like this total to go over the number.

Baylor’s defense just cost them wins in the last two games against BYU and Houston, and that came after giving up 81 points to West Virginia for God’s sake! I think that TCU is going to smash Baylor to bits tonight, and you should take note of the small -2.5 Handicap being posted by Bet365.

This is an 84 – 74 game waiting to happen, and TCU is going to be the team earning win #20 to pull within a half-game of Kansas for third place in the Big 12 table.

TCU Head Coach Jamie Dixon goes 5-deep into his bench, and Baylor barely puts eight players on the court every night. The Bears will likely be without Langston Love again tonight, as his knee injury comes at a bad time for the Bears. Love averages 11.1 PPG, and he is one of six Bear players who average double-digits this season. I SAID 6 DUDES!!

Baylor can score, but TCU at home is going to overwhelm them tonight because Emanuel Miller can simply take over a game for the Frogs. Miller Only once since opening day has Miller been held under double-digits this season, and he will find his way to 20 at home tonight to lead TCU to a win in Fort Worth, and the season sweep of the Bears Might they meet again in the Big 12 Conference Tourney? We’ll know soon enough!
