Baylor finished the night with eight team blocks, narrowly edging Texas’ seven, but the Longhorns’ efficiency on offense proved decisive. Baylor never led in the match, and every time the Bears found momentum defensively, errors halted their progress.

The Bears return to Betty Lou Mays Field on Thursday to face Texas after a statement 2–0 win over No. 17 Mississippi State.

Next time you or your friends try to use the “I don’t like sports” excuse, keep in mind that football games are just as much a social event as they are an athletic one. They’re about green and gold outfits and cowboy boots, tailgates in Touchdown Alley and the communal walk across the bridge, constant Sic ‘ems and the Baylor Line.

Hosting the top team in the country, the Bears lost in four sets.

Both the men’s and women’s teams placed second in the first event of the season.

Baylor basketball has pulled a miraculous turnaround after looking dead in the water only a few short weeks ago.
The Bears are now winners of four straight with only four games left to go in the season.

I would like to imagine that when people see the University of Texas ranked No. 15 in the country, they laugh, roll their eyes and throw away whatever news source gave them such a standing.

They lost to every ranked team they played and then also lost to Missouri, finished the Big 12 season 4-5 and nearly missed bowl eligibility for the second year in a row.

I know its defense was pretty good, but it was this same defense that gave up 55 points to Oklahoma, 38 to Oklahoma State at home and 48 to Baylor in the rain.
