For the 11th time in the last 12 head-to-head matchups, the No. 10 Baylor Bears came out victorious against the No. 20 Texas Longhorns with a resounding 80-63 defeat on Saturday in Waco to bounce back from an injury-riddled stretch.
Baylor was still without leading scorer LJ Cryer and lost forward Jonathan Tchamwa Tchatchuoa to a gruesome knee injury, but still dominated Texas for 35 minutes on both ends of the court.
“I think from where I stand, I think we’re a team that hasn’t proven we can handle some success,” said Texas head coach Chris Beard, who is now 3-8 against Baylor head coach Scott Drew with five straight losses.
