The only way to break that record would be if the first game was the loss, which I highly doubt. If the first game was the loss then the stat would be 12 straight top 10 wins.Stefano DiMera said:
If Texas stays in top 10 Monday we could break the record Monday night.
I read the Tweet a different way: Baylor is currently 12-1 against its last 13 AP top 10 opponents, If we win our next game against an AP top 10 opponent, the record goes to 13-1, which is better than "or breaks" the 12-1 record,JeremiahJT said:The only way to break that record would be if the first game was the loss, which I highly doubt.

Disagree. Kansas beats KSU and ISU next week, they could well be back in the top ten. Blue Blood pedigree has its privileges.Gentle Ben said:
Well not in Lawrence....because KU will not be ranked in the top 10.
But then that would make it a 14 game stretch. The record is for a 13 game stretch. Unless the first game of that 13 game stretch was the one loss, the next win will still make us 12-1 over the last 13 games vs top 10 teams (still tied). In other words, the only way to break the record would be to go 13-0 over a 13 game stretch, which would only happen if the first game was a loss and the next one is a win. Not trying to be pedantic, just saying he was technically correct.Jayman1963 said:I read the Tweet a different way: Baylor is currently 12-1 against its last 13 AP top 10 opponents, If we win our next game against an AP top 10 opponent, the record goes to 13-1, which is better than "or breaks" the 12-1 record,JeremiahJT said:The only way to break that record would be if the first game was the loss, which I highly doubt.

Its not a record thing, just a stat. Its of interest to us because its happening in front of us. Aside from Baylorfans and the trivia obsessed, no one else cares.BusyTarpDuster2017 said:But then that would make it a 14 game stretch. The record is for a 13 game stretch.

*We might be breaking the record for a 14 game stretch, though! Someone should check.
