No In-State Sportsbooks in Texas

Your team is the Baylor Bears.

Ahead of the 2021 NCAA Men's College Basketball Tournament, your team had the second shortest odds of winning with a payout potential of $500 on every $100 bet.

The Bears remained undefeated throughout much of the season but seemed to lose a great deal of its energy coming out of a Covid-19 quarantine later on.

Coming into the tournament, Baylor, along with Gonzaga, landed multiple players on the AP's All-America teams, with Corey Kispert (Bulldogs) and Jared Butler (Bears) joining Luka Garza, Ayo Dosunmu and Cade Cunningham on the first team.
