All right, let's get this thing started early and let's see if this thread can come close to matching the one on the men's team.
The Texas women's hoops team will host Baylor tonight in a rematch of the Longhorns win in Waco from exactly two weeks ago. Texas enters ranked No. 8, Baylor is ranked No. 4.
The Longhorns (21-5, 14-1 Big 12 Conference) are coming off a 74-73 last-second loss to No. 19/19 Oklahoma on Saturday in Norman. That snapped Texas' 19-game winning streak, which had been the second-longest active win streak in the nation and tied for the 10th-longest win streak in UT school history.
Baylor enters Monday's game with a 25-2 overall record and a 14-1 mark in Big 12 Conference play. Baylor leads the Big 12 Conference in 17 major statistical categories, including scoring offense (89.5), scoring defense (54.1) and rebound margin (+21.7).
The winner of tonight's game will take a huge step towards securing the regular season conference crown. Texas would be up a game in the standings with a victory but would own the head-to-head sweep. The Longhorns have remaining games against Iowa State and at Kansas State. Baylor could also go a game up with a win. The Bears' two remaining games are at home against Texas Tech and at Oklahoma.
