Social Media Reacts to Baylor Improving to 12-0 After Beating Texas Tech

Posted on January 16, 2021

The Baylor Bears improved to 12-0 after beating the Texas Tech Red Raiders 68-60 in Lubbock on Saturday. It was the first game this season that Baylor did not win by at least 10 points, which is saying something for the second-ranked Bears.

Here’s what the college basketball and Big 12 media members had to say about the game after the Baylor win.

Baylor is good at basketball.

#Baylor has looked out of sorts at times, but remember they haven't played much and this is Tech, who just knocked off #4 UT and they still got the job done. Cryer with huge 3 off the bench and @J_Hooper11 was money when they needed some clutch shots. 12-0 (5-0) host KU on Mon.

It's time for Mac McClung to put together a YouTube tape of the times he's dove to the floor this season for a loose ball. There's enough material now. #WreckEm

Baylor is the only undefeated Power 5 school left in the nation #sicem

Baylor stays unbeaten with a win in Lubbock against Texas Tech.

Jared Butler was not good for the first 35 minutes, but made some big plays down the stretch … and the Bears just do what it takes to win games.

This was a sloppy game or a great defensive game, and that depends on how you take 36 combined turnovers. But #Sicem was held to 68 points and won its first game this season by fewer than 10 points. Some of that had to do with #WreckEm defense. pic.twitter.com/dXkke2TSnf

We have to play well in a 40 minute game well.

20 turnovers is WAY too many

Flop charges. We just have to play better. You have to go win the game. We had a plan, we just didn't execute it.

Baylor beats #TexasTech 68-60. Game ended with 5:32 on a 5-point swing possession. High- level games work that way. Still, show you how close Tech is. #WreckEm

Micah Peavy does a lot of things to get Texas Tech extra possessions .. absolutely invaluable to have on a team.

And I’ll end it with this funny tweet which incorporates Patrick Mahomes and the NFL Playoffs.

Hey @espn, thanks for the reminder that @PatrickMahomes didn't win anything of significance while at @TexasTech, and lost to @BUFootball twice.

Baylor turns around for a Top 10 match up against Kansas on Monday in Waco. Meantime Texas Tech hits the road to play TCU on Wednesday.
