No. 2 Houston beats No. 11 Baylor 82-76 in OT behind Cryer’s 15 points against his former team

Associated Press  

WACO, Texas — The only cheers Houston guard L.J. Cryer, who as a freshman three years ago was part of Baylor’s only national championship, made six free throws in overtime and finished with 15 points as No. All six of Cryer’s free throws came in overtime, the first two with 3:06 left to put the Cougars back ahead to stay after falling behind for the first time. “This was a really good team win.” Ja’Kobe Walter scored a game-high 23 points for Baylor, and RayJ Dennis had 21. BIG PICTURE It was their first meeting as Big 12 foes, and first since the Final Four three years ago when Baylor beat Houston in a semifinal game on way to winning its first national championship.
