Baylor vs Texas Prediction | College Basketball Betting Picks
Texas has struggled with inconsistency all season. The Longhorns constantly play down to their opponents and when faced with an elite opponent, usually fall apart early. That was the case in their last meeting with Baylor with the Bears winning 80-63 just over two weeks ago. Texas couldn’t break Baylor’s tough defense while Baylor had their way on offense.
Simply put, Baylor is better on paper, more battle tested, and arguably better coached than Texas. Even though this matchup takes place in Austin, Baylor fans travel well. In a game with a spread that is more of a “pick ’em” than anything, I’m taking the team that I know shows up virtually every night. Bet on Baylor to cover the spread.
