The Georgia State Panthers battle the Baylor Bears on Thursday in the second round of the 2015 NCAA Tournament.  The March Madness Round of 64 game tips off at 1:40 p.m. ET, and you can watch the free live stream or listen to the free radio broadcast via the links listed below.

Baylor earned a three-seed with a 24-9 record and is coming off Friday's semifinal loss to Kansas in the 2015 Big 12 Tournament.   Thursday, though, will mark school history: It's the first time Baylor has ever appeared in consecutive NCAA Tournaments, according to the Associated Press.  Bears coach Scott Drew believes the experience some of his current players have from reaching the Sweet Sixteen last year could pay off with the younger guys, in terms of leadership and preparation.

"It definitely can't hurt.  ... Just them being focused and making sure everyone else is focused," Drew told the Associated Press.  "That goes a long way."

Drew has coached Baylor in the tournament four previous times, including reaching the Elite Eight in 2010 and 2012.  He'll lean heavily this year on junior forward Rico Gathers, who's averaging 11.7 points and is one of the nation's top rebounders with 11.6 boards per game.

Game planning for Gathers was undoubtedly a big part in Georgia State coach Ron Hunter's preparations.

"It's like facing J.J. Watt. That guy is unbelievable. It's like facing a football player," Hunter said of 6-foot-8, 275-pound Gathers. "He's bigger than any football player we've got at Georgia State. We don't see guys like that even walking on campus."

The Panthers' 24-9 record fetched them a No. 14 seed in the tournament, and they're coming in with five straight wins under their belts, including Sunday's 38-36 win over Georgia Southern for the Sun Belt Tournament championship.
