AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — NaLyssa Smith scored 28 points and No. 9 Baylor continued its dominant run against No. 13 Texas with a 63-55 win Sunday, the Bears’ second victory over the Longhorns in three days. Texas led by 10 early in the third quarter before the Bears stormed back behind Smith. Joanne Allen-Taylor scored 18 for Texas. Baylor beat the Longhorns Friday night and the quick turnaround for the rematch happened because a Jan. 9 meeting had been postponed due to COVID-19 problems in the Bears program. The Bears have won 13 in a row over Texas and 27 of the last 28.
