Lubbock, TX—Texas Tech (9-10, 2-6 Big 12) could not overcome a slow start and ultimately suffered another close defeat—this time an 88-80 loss to Baylor (14-4, 4-2 Big 12).
The Bears did not miss a beat in the first half as the team was in a grove as they built a 16-point first half lead. Their confidence was sky high after destroying No. 7 Iowa State over the weekend where their lead got as high as 34. They continued their hot shooting in Lubbock with four out of six three-pointers made in the first half.
Vivian Gray and the Red Raiders had other plans after halftime.
