Eyes on the prize: No. 3 seed Baylor men’s basketball hunts for Big 12 title

By Foster Nicholas | Sports Writer

From a resume standpoint, No. 3 seed Baylor men’s basketball has little to gain in the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship this week.

The Bears (22-9, 11-7 Big 12) secured a top-three finish in the Big 12 standings before the last game of league play, and they’ve earned a double-bye for the postseason tournament as a result of it. They’re also projected to be named a No. 3 seed for the NCAA Tournament, regardless of how they perform in the upcoming Big 12 Tournament.

Baylor isn’t taking the week off, though.
