No matter which approach you take to checking out the latest week in Big XII baseball there's one story line that sticks out above any other...the Texas Longhorns. Texas Tech, that's right Texas Tech, has the best record in the conference and Oklahoma State went from having a horrible start to the season last weekend (shutout twice in three losses to Cal Poly) but it all pales in comparison to the current streak Texas baseball is on.
| Team | Overall Record | What Happened Last Week |
| Baylor | 6-2 | The busiest team in the Big XII last week, Baylor beat TCU 7-1 on Tuesday and then Texas State 5-1 on Wednesday before falling twice to UCLA over the weekend. Outfielder Logan Vick and pitcher Trent Blank were both given conference honors for last week. |
