Texas has dropped three of its last four games. The Bears continue to have success from beyond the arc, 3rd in the country in efficiency. However, despite their struggles to guard the perimeter, Texas does have experienced guards to get up for the rivalry game at home. The Longhorns must be feelings some type of way as well with UCF erasing a 16-point deficit and being mocked at home.
Baylor is one of the best three-point shooting teams in the country so I'm going to say its 5-for-28 (17.9%) showing from behind the arc in an overtime loss at Kansas State should be treated as an aberration. With Texas off to an unpredictably average start to 2024, going 6-4 in their last 10 and starting 1-3 in Big 12 play, I just don't think I can trust the Longhorns as a favorite.
Baylor is a top 15 team coming off a loss. Texas ranks in between 40th and 50th, they're on a two-game losing streak. I'll take Scott Drew over Rodney Terry.
