In the Ferrell Center, Baylor is 10-3 on the season.<\/p>\n<p>This game is certainly a must win for KU due to the tough upcoming schedule which still includes at Texas Tech, and Oklahoma and West Virginia in Allen Fieldhouse.<\/p>\n<p>Getting a win tomorrow could start a much-needed momentum boost. KU is coming off of a bounce back game against TCU. If they can beat Baylor for the second time this year it would complete the season sweep. Last time KU played Baylor, the &#8216;Hawks were able to win but by only three points (70-67). The story of that game was the emergence of Malik Newman who finished with game-high 24 points.<\/p>\n<p>You won\u2019t want to miss this one.
