How to watch, prediction for Baylor basketball as Bears look to beat Oklahoma State

Things haven't been ideal for Baylor since Big 12 play started. The Bears dropped to 0-3 in conference play after falling to Houston on Saturday. Baylor has now lost to TCU, Iowa State, and Houston, but the Bears look to rebound on Tuesday night.

Baylor will hit the road and head to Oklahoma State to take on the Cowboys, who are 13-3 and 1-2 in Big 12 play. Ok. State's lone conference win came against ranked UCF at home.

Prediction

Trent Knoop

It's still too early to talk about must-win games, but Baylor badly needs to get back in the win column -- especially for Big 12 play. Obviously, Baylor has gone up against two of the best teams in the conference: Iowa State and Houston.

While Baylor is the away team, the Bears are better than Oklahoma State in almost every facet. The Cowboys turn the ball over more than any team in the Big 12 and Oklahoma State allows the most points in the conference. The Cowboys are the second-highest scoring team in the Big 12 -- one point better than Baylor.

I look for Scott Drew's team to come out swinging and get on board with a much-needed win.

Final score: Baylor 84, Oklahoma State 78

Baylor cannot drop to 0-4, and I don't think they will. Although Oklahoma State is a very good team and Dan Skillings Jr. probably does not play tonight, I think Baylor can pull off a win. I think guards Obi Agbim and Isaac Williams step up, and James Nnaji continues to improve as he gets accustomed to college hoops and Scott Drew's system.

Final score: Baylor 74, Oklahoma State 63
