    WACO, TX ( FOX 44 ) — The 12th-ranked Baylor Men’s Basketball team bounced back in a big way on Tuesday following the loss against Kansas, as the Bears cruised to a big win over No. 25 Oklahoma.

    Both teams got off to a slow start offensively in the game, but the Bears eventually caught fire near the end of the first half, scoring 20 points in the final 6:33, and never looked back on their way to a win by double-digits.

    For Baylor, the key to success offensively was the starting lineup, as all five starters for the Bears finished in double figures, led by Jayden Nunn and his Baylor career high 26 points.

    The moment of the game came with less than 30 seconds left though, as Austin Sacks, after receiving a scholarship on Saturday, hit a contested three to send the crowd at the Foster Pavilion into a frenzy.

    The win for Baylor moves the Bears to 1-0 in Big 12 games this season decided by 10+ points. They’ll next be in action on Saturday, February 17th when they hit the road to take on West Virginia at 5:00 pm.
