You definitely got the sense that Mississippi State was playing for each other (and their coach) where the chemistry and camaraderie wasn't the same on Baylor's side of the ball. This marks 5 years in the row with no Final Four for Baylor when they've had:
2013: Griner and Sims
2014: Sims, Johnson and Davis
2015: Davis and Johnson
2016: Jones, Brown, Davis and Johnson
2017: Jones, Brown and Davis
She can recruit and man top kids from Texas, but it's evident that she doesn't foster the same environment that many other top programs do. I hope many recruits watched tonight's game and saw the post game interview with Schaefer/William. Mississippi State could be the class of the SEC for years to come.
