If you looked at Baylor’s statistical profile, there were three factors in particular that stood out as elite — 3-point shooting, offensive rebounding and the ability to force turnovers. Baylor finished with 67 field goal attempts to 49 for Gonzaga, which helped offset that disadvantage in shooting accuracy. Baylor finished fifth in the country in offensive rebounding percentage, but Gonzaga ended up 31st in defensive rebounding percentage. Even on this disappointing night, Gonzaga shot 62.5% inside the arc. Baylor finished the season as the nation’s top team in 3-point shooting percentage.
