WACO, Texas — Robert Wright III scored 20 of his 24 points in the second half, and Baylor rallied from a 21-point deficit late in the first half for an 81-70 victory over No. 11 Kansas. The collapse by the Jayhawks came a week after sixth-ranked Houston pulled off improbable rallies in the final seconds of regulation and the first overtime in a double-OT win at Allen Fieldhouse. Wright put the Bears ahead 47-46 on two free throws with 13:02 remaining after they trailed 38-17 late in the first half. Baylor took the lead for good on a tiebreaking 3-pointer from Jalen Celestine with four minutes to go. Hunter Dickinson scored 20 points for Kansas.
