Mizzou 72, Baylor 57: Tigers Find Their Range In The Second Half

COLUMBIA, MO - FEBRUARY 11:  Michael Dixon #11 of the Missouri Tigerspasses as AJ Walton #22 of the Baylor Bears defends during the game on February 11, 2012  at Mizzou Arena in Columbia, Missouri.  (Photo by Jamie Squire/Getty Images)

We saw all the bad of a four-guard lineup in the first half and all the good in the second as Missouri pulled away for a 72-57 win over Baylor at Mizzou Arena, their third win over a Top 10 team this season. Baylor dominated on the glass in the first half, staying within four points at halftime (33-29) because of double-digit offensive rebounds. The Bears surged early in the second half as well, but as was the case against Kansas, Baylor failed to respond well when punched in the mouth. Sparked by a Steve Moore transition dunk, Mizzou went on a 20-6 run to build a 58-43 lead, then coasted from there with a series of jumpers from every guard on the floor.

For the game, Phil Pressey led the way with 19 points on 5-for-8 shooting, but all the guards chipped in: Mike Dixon (16 points, 6-for-10), Marcus Denmon (16 points, 6-for-12) and Kim English (12 points, 3-for-8). Ricardo Ratliffe struggled mightily, but he wasn't needed. Powered by the perimeter and the Mizzou Arena crowd, the Tigers moved to 23-2 for the season. What a year.

to be fair

North Carolina’s loss to Florida State was very, very ugly… but FSU is 24 in kenpom.

and Duke’s worst loss was by 4 points in OT to kenpom #43 Miami FL.

our OK state loss is not sexy.

by kevinf on Feb 11, 2012 3:15 PM CST up reply actions  

but

I dare say OSU is probably as good as either of those teams, at least as they’ve been playing lately. even if their Kenpom’s aren’t high enough, I bet they’d fare well against FSU or Miami on a neutral court.

Our loss to K-State was awful, but it was only half as bad as the UNC loss to FSU.

And Miami at home is much worse than Ok State on the road. KenPom has really good stats, but I think their overall ranking of teams kind of sucks (I know it’s not supposed to be like a ranking, it’s predictive or something, but it still sucks).

Fran and Bilas are by FAR the best analysts in CBB.

And honestly, I’m not sure its close. I think Knight has the most knowledge, but his condescending tone and the fact that it takes him 5 minutes to get his point across and then continue to focus on that one point the whole game is annoying.

Couldn't comment during the game

ESPN3 plus 3 month old baby with Mommy out for the afternoon…

That was pretty interesting stuff. I was nervous for 25 minutes…and then our guys exploded! Kind of had a feeling that we’d win this one differently than the last one; Baylor wasn’t going to allow any deep penetration, and for dang sure they’d try to stop Ricardo this time. If we were going to win, it’d be from behind the 3 point line.

It’s crazy that they would do that, though. They were daring us to shoot…and we’re at home…and Denmon, English, and Dixon aren’t going to miss that often…then when Phil’s hitting? Forget it.

I’d be surprised to see another opponent dare us to beat them from 3 again. What a silly idea. If I were playing Mizzou, I’d let Ratliffe have his and focus on the other four as much as possible.

To borrow a phrase from the late great Mitch Hedberg:
I like waffles better than pancakes. Because waffles are like pancakes with syrup traps. They say to syrup, “You ain’t going anywhere, don’t even be trying to creep down the sides. Just rest in these squares, if one square is full, move on. When you hit butter, split up.”

According to ESPN Stats & Info, that’s more wins against top-10 teams than the Tigers had in their previous seven seasons combined.

He called Jon at home, gave the “script” thank you, and then Jon started asking him questions about where he was from, which sports, etc. Son said it was cool to get to call him, but even cooler that Jon was truly interested in what my son was doing.

If Mizzou wins out through the regular season and the big 12 tourney...

And thats fine.

But if Mizzou loses one and OSU loses one I think its a tossup. Only way to gurantee a Mizzou 1 seed in STL is to win out. I think we jump osu no matter what.

by stlcardinalsfang on Feb 11, 2012 5:11 PM CST up reply actions  

I don't think so

I mean, I’m not “no way we’ll lose” overconfident, but unless we get stuck with a Duke/UNC matchup in Greensboro, or Creighton in Omaha, tOSU in Columbus, or Kentucky/Louisville in Louisville, we have to feel pretty good about our chances.

If we get the St Louis regional, and make it there, our chances for a FF are favorable and pretty dang good.

Even one of the other three regionals I think are in our ‘favor’, mainly, because from what I’ve seen, we’re one of the best neutral court teams in the country (see Cal/ND, Villanova).

If, and I mean IF, I had to pick one loss for the rest of this season, I would hope it comes March 10th or earlier.

the main problem I see with a tournament run

is depth issues for us.. the tourney can really exhaust a short-handed team

I believe in the The Black & Gold Standard

by Logan Hill on Feb 11, 2012 5:27 PM CST up reply actions  

The XII tourney, yes

NCAA, no.

For the XII, it’s a possible (not for us, since we should get a bye), five games in five days.

For the NCAA, you only play two of four out of seven days, Thu/Fri/Sat/Sun until FF, then it’s Sat/Mon.

I think the XII is tougher, depth and conditioning wise than the NCAA.

My personal opinion, of course.

Add to that, I think we are one of the best conditioned teams, as well.

by MIZZOUfaninAZ on Feb 11, 2012 5:52 PM CST up reply actions  

i just meant that the second game of each weekend can be rough

by Logan Hill on Feb 11, 2012 5:56 PM CST up reply actions  

There's extra long TV timeouts and halftimes in the tournament

add that in with venues that will be anywhere from slightly to dominantly Mizzou-friendly, and I don’t think legs are a huge concern. If there’s a point the rest of the year where rest could hurt, it’s during the Big 12 tournament, playing 3 games in 3 days to win.

and we lost to oklahoma state.

one game is not a great way to get an accurate picture of a basketball team.

ohio state’s efficiency margin is .27 points per possession (i.e., they score .27 more points per possession on offense than they allow on defense). that’s second-best in the country, to kentucky’s .28. for reference, kansas’ is .18; ours is .10. per bpro. that analysis is as of tuesday, so it may change a bit after this week’s games, but ohio state is still going to be rated a lot better than us.

if you prefer kenpom, he’s actually got osu as #1, and kentucky as #2. he rates ohio state’s defense as #1 in the country, and their offense as #9.

This isn't as bad as B1G

But Texas Tech is beating Oklahoma 47-35 with 7:40 left in the game.

Kentucky's Terrance Jones may go to the NBA next year

But he has a lot of similarities with Perry Jones 3, fantastic talent, questionable motivation and heart.

But Vandy forcing Kentucky to take outside jumpers and not rely on their athleticism, may give them a shot. Hope it happens, good blueprint.

Remember what I said earlier about Terrance Jones being a great talent but questionable?

He looks like he wants to get into a fight with Jeff Taylor. I think Kentucky is slightly losing their cool.

I wonder if our friends over at Bring On The Cats are conflicted

On one hand, they would probably enjoy a victory over ku on Monday night. Nay, their team needs it to improve their tournament chances, or to not slip onto the bubble.

But a KSU victory over ku on Monday is Mizzou’s best chance to earn at least a share of the conference title on their way out the door to the SEC.

So, BOTC…do you want your team to win at the potential cost of a Mizzou Big 12 championship, middle fingers a’blazing to UT, Neinas, and the Big 12 in general?

by CBonerfied on Feb 11, 2012 9:46 PM CST reply actions  

i doubt they're that conflicted.

i can’t imagine they don’t want to win.

by nycbirdo on Feb 11, 2012 9:48 PM CST up reply actions  

I know, just kidding

I find it hilarious that they were probably the angriest of all B12 blogs at Mizzou leaving, and they hold the key to Mizzou’s best chance at a conference title, potentially even an outright one.

by CBonerfied on Feb 11, 2012 9:49 PM CST up reply actions  

We should go over there and tell them

“get out there and win us a Big 12 Championship!”

They were the angriest

because they like us the most*

*"like us the most", in this case, means they don’t hate us quite as much as everyone else does.

I’m sure they’ll be in the top 5 ….if this happens.

by B_W on Feb 11, 2012 9:55 PM CST up reply actions  

They'll be top-5 anyway.

OSU and Baylor both drop, OSU doesn’t drop out of the top-10, but dropping to 6th isn’t that unlikely.

Haha!

" MU would retain greater influence and interest in the Kansas City (KC) Metro area, as well as western Missouri, than it would have without its ties to KU."
We’ll be just fine in western Missouri and Kansas City. It’s not like that region is seceding and joining the state of Kansas. We don’t really need their help. This just demonstrates their insanely inflated opinion of themselves though.
