Texas Tech's Adonis Arms shoots the ball around Baylor's Zach Loveday during the first half of an NCAA college basketball game on Wednesday, Feb. 16, 2022, in Lubbock, Texas.LUBBOCK — Kevin Obanor and his Texas Tech teammates responded after some choice words at halftime from coach Mark Adams to complete a season sweep of reigning national champion Baylor.
After missing 11 consecutive 3-pointers over two and a half games, Obanor made back-to-back shots from beyond the arc to cap a 14-3 run that started the second half and put the Red Raiders ahead to stay. “We had a lot of mishaps in the second half that allowed him to shoot,” Baylor guard Adam Flagler said.
Bryson Williams added 17 points for Tech, which had a 51-point outburst in the second half to improve to 16-0 at home this season. Adonis Arms scored 15 points, while Terrence Shannon had 14 points and five assists. Baylor had a 21-game winning streak before its 65-62 home loss on Jan. 11 to the Red Raiders, who overcame an early 15-point deficit in that game. The loss last month to the Red Raiders started an 11-game stretch in which the Bears are 6-5.
Tech was without starting guard Kevin McCullar, out with a sprained left ankle. After missing a shot in Saturday’s win over TCU, McCullar stepped on the foot of Horned Frogs coach Jamie Dixon.“Everybody’s just got to pick it up,” Drew said of the rebounding. “ We haven’t had much time to practice since Jon’s been gone. It’s going to take some time to adjust. It’s kind of like starting over. We’ve had so many guys come and go.
