Baylor vs. Texas CBB Prediction:
Both teams look to bounce back after suffering losses last time out.
Give me the Longhorns. I don’t see this Texas team losing three straight and especially two in a row at home. Baylor has struggled shooting on the road this year and with a desperate Texas team, I think they grab a big home win to get back on track.
