Texans Longhorns Betting Prediction
First, we have the Texas vs Baylor Betting prediction for the Longhorns.
The Big 12 is still the best league in college basketball. According to Bracketology, they will get nine bids to the NCAA Tournament, while the SEC will only get seven.
In this league, any win is good, and Texas has won three of their last four games. Right now, they are 8-8 in league play and tied for seventh place with TCU. In their most recent game, a win over Oklahoma State, forward Dylan Disu led them with 17 points.

For Texas, Disu, a senior forward who is 6’9″ and 225 pounds, scores 16.8 points per game. 5.0 RPG is another thing he does well. He can also shoot from outside, as he has made 38 threes this season. In his last game, Disu got 17 points against OK State. In the first game of the season, he scored 19 points against Baylor.
In the backcourt, Max Abmas scores the most points for them. The 6’0 senior gets 16.5 points per game and 4.3 assists per game. He makes the most threes on the team (81), making 37.2% of his shots from deep. Tyrese Hunter is another 6’0 guard.
The junior averages 10.7 points per game and dropped 21 against Baylor in his last game. Inside for the Longhorns, Dillon Mitchell (6’8″, 205 pounds) is more athletic and scores 10 points per game and grabs 8.2 rebounds per game. Kadin Shedrick (6’11”, 230 pounds) adds 7.99 points per game and 3.2 rebounds per game.
The current ranking for Texas by KenPom is 26th in the country. They rank 26th in how well they attack and 40th in how well they defend. Their pace of play puts them 222nd in terms of speed. Bracketology says that Texas will be the eighth seed in the NCAA Tournament.
Injury Report: None listed.
Baylor Bears Betting Prediction
Now, we have the Texas vs Baylor Betting prediction for the Bears.
It is too late for the Baylor Bears to win the Big 12 Regular Season Title. With only two games left, they are three games behind the Houston Cougars for first place. Even though they didn’t win the title, beating #7 Kansas in their last game was still a big deal.
With a lead of up to 13 points, Baylor dominated the second half and went on to win by eight points. Guard RayJ Dennis led the Bears to victory with 19 points and 10 assists.

Ja’Kobe leads Baylor in scoring with 14.7 PPG as a 6’5 freshman guard, making Walter a sure lottery pick in the future. He also gets 4.6 RPG and makes 60 three-pointers this year, more than anyone else on the team. Walter has scored at least ten points in each of his last seven games.
Against Houston and West Virginia, he scored 23 points, and against Texas, he scored 22. With 13.4 points per game and 6.7 assists per game, RayJ Dennis is the team leader in assists. He just had a double-double against Kansas. Yves Missi, a rookie who is 7 feet tall and weighs 235 pounds, keeps getting better.
He is now third on the team in scoring with 11.2 points per game and 5.6 rebounds per game. In his last two games, Missi has scored 16 points or more each time. Jalen Bridges is another senior forward who is 6.9 and scores 11.2 PPG.
KenPom’s latest rankings put Baylor in 14th place overall. They are fifth in how well they attack and 67th in how well they defend. They are 301st in the country in pace of play, which is even slower than Texas. At the moment, Bracketology says that Baylor will be a 3 seed in the NCAA Tournament.
Injury Report: G Langston Love is questionable (11.1 PPG, knee injury).
Best Bet for this Game
The Baylor Bears are getting better just in time for the playoffs. All three of the Bears’ best players are in their first season with the team. Walter and Missi are freshmen, and Dennis came from Toledo. They no longer look like a throw-together group of talented people because they beat the strong Kansas Jayhawks in their last game.
Six Baylor players average more than 10 points per game, and they have good players all over the court. On the court, the Bears still have Dennis and Nunn (10.8 PPG) in the backcourt, Missi and Bridges in the frontcourt, and Walter, an all-league player on the side, even if Love doesn’t play.
Texas has two 6’0 guards on the outside and is strong on the inside, so they don’t have a player that can guard Walter. Hey Kobe When these two teams met last, Walter scored 22 points. This game is also about getting back at the Longhorns for losing the first game by two points. This Texas team is too good for Baylor to lose to. The Bears are getting into a groove and will end strong.
Take Baylor to cover.
