Result: Loss

Texas -2

A sense of urgency in this, as Texas is a bubble team for the NCAA Tourney. They have went to the dance in each of coach Rick Barnes 13 years at Texas. They need a high RPI win to assure a tourney berth in my opinion, and I feel that is the opinion of the Longhorns too. Texas is a bad road tea, as evidenced by a bad loss at Okie State on Saturday as 3 point fav, while Baylor was busy losing at home to K State by 1 point in a game where both teams scored less than 60 points. A VERY tough loss. Texas has lost only 2 games at home all year to Mizzou and Kansas by a combined 4 points, and they are avenging a 76-71 loss at Baylor last month. The stats are pretty even here but home court is huge in any conference including the Big 12. A Must win for Texas, and they know it. Baylor has dropped 8 out of 10 ATS in the Big 12.
