LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) — No. 8 Baylor is back in Big 12 play, and a familiar role after taking down top-ranked UConn.
"We're the UConn in the Big 12. We know that we have a target on our back, we've won eight straight years," coach Kim Mulkey said. "Any off night for us is a win for somebody else."
Queen Egbo had 19 points and 10 rebounds, and the Lady Bears followed their victory over UConn with a 73-56 win against Texas Tech in their Big 12 opener on Sunday.
The Lady Bears (11-1, 1-0), who topped the 11-time national champion Huskies 68-57 on Thursday night, went ahead to stay against Texas Tech by scoring the last seven points of the first quarter.
