Baylor edges Texas Tech to remain undefeated

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

02/18/2012 - Waco, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brittney Griner filled the stat sheet with 18 points, 14 rebounds, six blocks and five assists as No. 1 Baylor escaped with a 56-51 decision over Texas Tech to remain the nation's lone undefeated team.

Destiny Williams added 16 points and 10 boards for Baylor (27-0, 14-0 Big 12), which clinched at least a share of its first back-to-back and third all-time conference title.

Texas A&M and Oklahoma are tied for second place in the Big 12 with identical 9-4 records.

Monique Smalls had 13 points, seven rebounds and four steals for the Red Raiders (17-9, 5-9), while Kierra Mallard contributed 10 points in Texas Tech's fourth loss in six games.

Baylor opened the game with a 9-0 run to take the early lead, but Texas Tech responded with an 11-1 swing to go ahead, 11-10, just past the seven-minute mark of the opening half.

Texas Tech later held a 26-17 lead before Baylor recorded six of the next eight points to get within five and trailed, 35-30, at the break.

The Bears didn't make a shot from the floor over the opening four-plus minutes of the second half as Texas Tech stretched its lead to 39-32, but Terran Condrey snapped Baylor's offensive drought with a three-pointer, sparking a 9-2 run by the Bears to take a 42-41 lead.

A Chynna Brown trey put the Red Raiders back on top, but Condrey responded with another three and the Bears never trailed again.

After a Casey Morris jumper tied the game at 46 with a little over eight minutes left in the game, the Bears reeled off an 8-1 spurt to take control and Griner put the game away with a pair of free throws in the closing seconds.

Big 12 Conference betting odds

Work left to do: Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Kansas State

Texas joins Texas A&M and Kansas as locks after getting league win No. 11. Texas Tech greatly helped its own hopes and crippled OK State's with the two-point win Saturday. Is K-State the last reasonable hopeful? Could be an elimination match in Stillwater on Tuesday, at least for the Cowboys.

Work left to do:

Texas Tech [18-11 (7-7), RPI: 44, SOS: 12] A critical two-point win over OK State leaves the Red Raiders with Baylor and at Iowa State left. Get both and the Red Raiders likely are good to go. Get one and there could be some interesting comparisons with a K-State team that could finish two or three games "ahead" of them in the standings but doesn't have any of the quality wins Texas Tech has. Not a lot in nonconference play (against Arkansas in Little Rock being the best win, by far) to lean on.

Oklahoma State [18-9 (5-8), RPI: 50, SOS: 35] Still without a road win, the Cowboys now need to win two on the road just to get to .500 in conference play. It's hard to recall a team (OK, other than Clemson) falling so precipitously from lock status to almost certainly out of the NCAAs at this point. There are wins to be had in the last three, including a very big home game against K-State on Tuesday, but this team is reeling. Can you tell the pressure to win is getting to them with the way the final possession played out at Texas Tech? There are some good nonconference performances to lean on, specifically beating Missouri State and Syracuse on neutral floors and Pitt in OK City, but if the Pokes don't right this very, very soon, that won't be enough.

Kansas State [20-9 (9-5), RPI: 56, SOS: 96] It pays to be in the Big 12 North. The nine league wins are Colorado (twice), Missouri (twice), Iowa State (twice), Baylor, Nebraska and (a good one against) Texas. That helps explain the middling computer profile. The win over USC is nice, but the nonconference leaves a lot to be desired. The game at OK State in Stillwater on Tuesday is huge, as it could KO the Cowboys and leave K-State with a home date against Oklahoma with which to work.
