In the final minutes of Saturday’s tight game, the Colorado defense wanted the ball in anybody’s hands but senior LaceDarius Dunn’s. Too bad.

Baylor basketball looks to get back on track when it faces Colorado at 12:45 p.m. Saturday at the Ferrell Center.

At 3-3 in the Big 12 (13-6 overall), the Bears find themselves in the thick of conference play and searching for the ignition as they hope to not just keep afloat, but take control of a season approaching its prime.

Baylor could not overcome a sloppy first half and dropped its Monday night matchup at Kansas State, 69-61. Junior Quincy Acy led the Bears with 14 points, and three others finished in double figures.
