Baylor shoots over 50% from the field, over 47% from 3 point range, over 78% free throws, and outrebounds KU by 8

and loses.
 
But they had 20 turnovers to 7 for Kansas. So at the very least Kansas got 13 more possesions than Baylor. You can shoot 50 percent but if the other team gets 13 more shots then they don't have to.
 
Yes, I saw the turnover figures and recognized that as the reason for the loss. I wasn't saying the result had no explanation, I just found the result amusing, given the shooting and rebounding numbers.
