It should be noted that only two among the six elite teams went on to win the National Championship! Will the 2020-21 Baylor team draw inspiration from 2007-08 Kansas or 1998-99 UConn team and make a run for the title?
Though Gonzaga Bulldogs have a better (16-0) record than Baylor, they’re not as efficient when it comes to defeating their teams by more than 25 points in the ongoing college basketball season.
Can the 2021 Baylor team become the best in the school’s history?

The Baylor Bears have never won the Division I championship. While they’re still chasing the national title, the college program has been quite dominant over the last decade. They’ve established a solid recruiting class that has helped them surpass expectations.
The Bears are now 15-0 to start the season, but this hasn’t been their best ever performance in history. Baylor began the 2011-12 season with a 17-game winning streak, and Scott Drew’s current team just needs two more victories to match the record.
Baylor’s recent win came against Kansas State, where they trashed their opponents 107-59. They need a similar killer mentality to overcome their upcoming set of games against Auburn and the fifth-seeded Texas Longhorns.
