Alcorn State Braves
There is no way around it. Alcorn State has had a very bad year and it does not seem like it will be getting any better. It is going to be a very long year for this group.
The Braves last played on Thursday, where they lost to the Tulsa Golden Hurricane by a score of 83-62. Things will be much harder for them when they face the best team in the country on Monday.
This team has faced a combination and bad and good teams and the results have been the same in both cases. It really does not seem to matter who they go against. The opposition always seems to play better than they do.
It is going to be interesting to see how they approach this game with the Bears. It would be a moral victory for them if they do not get totally blown out of the water, but that is unlikely to happen.
Baylor Bears
The defending champions have been excellent this year. It is no surprise that they are the number one ranked team in America. The scary part is they will only get better and stronger as the year goes on.
The Bears currently have a perfect record of 10-0. One win that really stands out to me is the one over Villanova. They absolutely made the Wildcats look ordinary in that ball game.
This crew took care of the Oregon Ducks on Saturday by a score of 78-70. It was a close game, but they made enough winning plays to get the job done. Even though Oregon is not great this year, I was impressed with the way the Bears looked in that game.
Both Kendall Brown and James Akinjo had 17 points in the win on Saturday. A strong second half is what propelled this team to victory in that one.

Free Alcorn State Braves vs. Baylor Bears NCAAB Summary:
This is a game that could get pretty ugly for the away team. I would be surprised if that does not happen.
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: Baylor ATS
When Baylor has gone against weaker teams this year, they have not fooled around. This is a team that has just taken care of its business in those scenarios.
When they hit their groove, I feel like the Bears will be able to score at will. Alcorn State has never seen an offense likes this and I frankly do not think they will be able to make any adjustments even if they know what is coming.
I get that 34.5 is very high in college hoops, but I just have very little confidence in the fact that the Braves can keep it close. When this thing is over, I can see it being a lot to a little.
I am going with the Bears laying the points here.
