In a stunning performance on Thursday, the TCU Horned Frogs defeated the No. 12 Baylor Bears 83-67, marking their largest margin of victory ever against a ranked opponent on the road. This victory not only underscored TCU’s potential in the Big 12 race but also showcased a historic offensive display, particularly from standout player, Miles, who scored an impressive 40 points— the highest by a TCU player in a Big 12 game.
Miles’ remarkable outing included a phenomenal 10 three-pointers, aligning her with a unique achievement as one of only two players in NCAA history to score 10 threes against an AP Top 25 team on the road. Her contributions were pivotal, as she netted 23 points in a single quarter, significantly propelling the Frogs to their lead.
Alongside Miles, teammate Suarez also impressed, matching her career-high with 27 points, and together, they amassed a combined 67 points— a record for teammate pairs in a Big 12 game against ranked foes. TCU’s ability to shoot 15 out of 29 from beyond the arc highlighted their offensive prowess, representing their highest number of three-pointers made against a ranked opponent in over a decade.
This victory marks another chapter in TCU’s growing rivalry with Baylor, as the Horned Frogs have now won four consecutive matchups against the Bears after having been on a 37-game losing streak to them that spanned from 1990 until last season. With this win, TCU also improved its conference standing, putting them in a prime position to compete for the Big 12 title, currently just half a game behind No. 19 West Virginia.
The Horned Frogs’ performance reinforces their status as strong contenders in the league, demonstrating resilience and a capability for delivering when it matters most. TCU’s next challenge comes against West Virginia, where another victory would not only secure their 40th consecutive home win but continue to strengthen their case in the Big 12 race. As the regular season progresses, TCU looks determined to keep the momentum going and solidify their position among the top teams in college basketball.
