Not to be a party pooper, but... It's my understanding that last year's and this years FISU men's basketball events aren't comparable with this year's being a more regional event for the Americas versus last year's being a world event. The world event is every two years on odd years and countries like Brazil get more sponsoring and actually can afford to bring national teams with the best from the country. For the America games, there are less sponsors so teams like Brazil are merely represented by a single university due to lacking the funds to coordinate travel and practices for a national team. So, I think the talent is significantly less this year compared to what Baylor faced last year. Unfortunately.
