POST MATCH QUOTES
Head Coach Chris Petrucelli
On the impact of this game going into the rest of the Big 12 schedule: Well, you know, every game we play in the league is a big game. There's three points on the line every game and you want to get the points every chance you can get. We got three big points tonight and we'll try to get some more next weekend.

On preparing for the next Big 12 games: Well, you know we have a trip to Missouri next weekend and Iowa State and Missouri is very similar to Baylor in the way that they play, so this was probably good preparation for us. But we have to go get some wins on the road.
