| | | BAYLOR: Point guard Kenny Chery (11.5 PPG, 4.7 APG, 2.6 RPG) stepped up in a big way last season in taking over this Baylor offense. He did a great job of playing under control and not turning the ball over with a 2.4 Ast/TO ratio. SF Royce O'Neale (7.1 PPG, 5.4 RPG, 2.9 APG) was not asked to do a lot of scoring last season, but the frontcourt is less crowded with the now-departed duo of Cory Jefferson and Isaiah Austin. With those guys gone, look for O'Neale to take his offensive game to another level. He averaged only 4.7 shots last year, but that number could double this season. PF Rico Gathers (6.4 PPG, 6.4 RPG) has a chance to be the top rebounder in the conference. He played only 17.8 MPG last season, and with that number potentially being 25-to-28 minutes, he could be in double figures every night. For the Bears to remain in the upper half of the Big 12, they will need big seasons from SF Taurean Prince (6.2 PPG, 2.8 RPG in 14.2 MPG) and swingman Ish Wainwright (1.9 PPG). | | OKLAHOMA ST: No Big 12 team lost the talent that the Cowboys did -- most notably guards Marcus Smart and Markel Brown, who accounted for 35.2 PPG last season -- but there are still players capable of starring in this conference. Swingman Le'Bryan Nash (13.9 PPG, 5.5 RPG) was thought to be a one-and-done at Oklahoma State, but will end up playing all four seasons. He is a tremendous athlete who has the talent to take over a game, but has been too inconsistent in his career. Too many times, Nash lets one mistake affect how he plays the rest of the game, and he tends to get into foul trouble. As the leading returning scorer from last season's team, Nash will be looked upon as the go-to guy on offense. SG Phil Forte III (13.3 PPG, 44% threes) is one of the top marksmen in the country who can single-handedly shoot the Cowboys back into a game. OSU is happy to be getting back F/C Michael Cobbins (4.5 PPG, 4.3 RPG and 1.5 BPG), who missed most of last season due to an Achilles injury. This trio could allow the Cowboys to surprise some Big 12 opponents this season. |

*Baylor-Oklahoma St. Preview* =============================
By KEVIN CHROUST STATS Writer
Baylor (15-4) at Oklahoma State (13-6), 9:00 p.m. EDT
Big 12 play has thus far provided Baylor and Oklahoma State with vacillating results that collectively look rather similar.
How each team has found itself in the middle of the conference pack, however, varies considerably.
The 20th-ranked Bears travel Tuesday night to Stillwater, where the Cowboys will try to continue their conference home dominance in a series that's been just about as close as possible over the past four meetings.
Baylor (15-4, 3-3) earned a 69-58 home win over then-No. 19 Oklahoma on Saturday for its most lopsided conference game yet, giving it a 64.7-63.7 scoring advantage in the league.
Oklahoma State (13-6, 3-4) fell 63-53 at Kansas State on Saturday and has had its share of double-digit decisions, though it maintains an even slimmer scoring edge of 61.3-60.4 against the Big 12.
Close calls have become the norm in the last four games of this series. The Cowboys won both meetings by two points in 2012-13, one in overtime, while Baylor swept the series last year with its 70-64 victory in Waco also going to OT.
The Bears' 76-70 road win over the Cowboys on Feb. 1 made them and Kansas the only two Big 12 programs to earn multiple victories in Stillwater over the past four seasons.
The win over the Sooners included Baylor's top shooting effort during conference play at 50.0 percent. The Bears were also 9 of 19 from 3-point range with guards Lester Medford (17 points) and Kenny Chery (13) leading the way.
Medford's point total was a career high after he was held under 10 in his previous eight games, and coach Scott Drew thinks the junior college standout is growing accustomed to top competition while the team as a whole learns composure at the ends of games.
"Kenny and Royce (O'Neale) were the only ones in any crunch time (minutes) last year really in the game for us," Drew told the school's official website. "... I think everyone's become more acclimated with that. Lester Medford was outstanding tonight and I think he's gotten more used to the Big 12 play - what he can do and what he can't do."
Whether the Bears can succeed on the road remains in question. They're 1-2 in opposing Big 12 gyms while shooting 35.1 percent and 28.6 percent from 3-point range, but they're hoping for some confidence coming off the win over the Sooners.
"It's real big, especially early for us in conference," O'Neale said. "We know each game is critical, especially at home - you have to defend your home court."
Oklahoma State's been good at that.
The loss to the surging Wildcats dropped it to 0-4 on the road in the league, but the Cowboys have won six straight conference home games by an average of 15.0 points dating to last season.
Opponents are averaging 49.3 points and shooting 33.1 percent in the three so far this season - a far cry from the 57.1 percent Kansas State shot.
"There's a lot of leagues we would have won the game today, even on our off day," Cowboys coach Travis Ford said. "Not in this league."
On the other end, Phil Forte scored 22 points, Le'Bryan Nash was held to 13 and Michael Cobbins was the only other Cowboys player with more than one field goal. Oklahoma State is shooting 27.5 percent from beyond the arc in the last four games.
"We have capable guys of stepping up," said Forte, who's shooting 52.6 percent in conference games. "They've done it before, they've proven it. Just have to keep them believing, not get down on themselves."
Three of Oklahoma State's next four are at home, but its next five opponents are in this week's Top 25.
