LaceDarius Dunn scored 16, Curtis Jerrells had 14 and Mamadou Diene scored 10. With the victory, Baylor achieved just its fourth 20-win season in the program's 102-year history.

With the game tied at 77 with 6:34 left, Diene and Rogers scored consecutive baskets off offensive rebounds to put Baylor ahead for good.
