UPSET!! Texas Tech overcame a 15-point deficit to take down No. 1-ranked Baylor 65-62 and snap the defending champs' 21-game win streak.
SportsPulse: USA TODAY Sports' Scott Gleeson breaks down the latest Ferris Mowers college basketball coaches poll, where Baylor is No. 1 for the fifth week in a row.WACO, Texas — When Texas Tech upset No. 6 Kansas on Saturday at United Supermarkets Arena, it was an attention-getter to the college basketball world. Not satisfied, the Red Raiders seemingly told everyone to watch what's next.
"For sure one of my biggest wins in my career here at Tech," said McCullar, who was part of an NCAA Tournament runner-up ."I'm just glad I did it with these guys and coach Adams. It was just an amazing feeling." Guards Adam Flagler and James Akinjo scored 17 apiece for Baylor , which had its nation-leading 21-game win streak snapped and suffered its first loss at home since February 2020 against Kansas.
"You're just trying to get them emotionally stirred up so they'll keep clawing," he said."I made the point that they made some really tough shots early and some of these shots aren't going to fall late. Just stay after them, keep a hand in their face and let's keep moving forward."
