Udoh’s late tip-in gives No. 24 Baylor win
WACO, Texas — Ekpe Udoh’s tip-in with 1.3 seconds remaining capped a wild finish Saturday and gave No. 24 Baylor a 64-62 victory over Missouri.
The Bears (10-5, 6-4 Big 12) had led from the opening minute before Missouri took a 62-61 lead with 47 seconds left on Kim English’s breakaway layup and free throw after an intentional foul on LaceDarius Dunn.
But after English missed the second free throw and J.T. Tiller misfired on the following possession, Baylor’s Anthony Jones grabbed the rebound and Dunn was fouled on a fast break with 6 seconds left.
Dunn made the first free throw to tie it, but he missed the second. Baylor’s Quincy Acy grabbed the rebound and took a fadeaway that bounced off the rim. Dunn’s putback was too strong, but Udoh went up between Tiller and Justin Safford for the game-winner.
Zaire Taylor led Missouri (18-7, 6-4) with 15 points.
(This version CORRECTS time to 1.3 seconds).)
