From tip-off to final buzzer, the Texas Longhorns displayed an impressive performance on both ends of the floor.

This defensive pressure contributed to a total of twenty-seven turnovers for the Horned Frogs which translated into twenty-one points off turnovers for Texas.

On offense, Texas capitalized on second-chance opportunities by scoring sixteen second-chance points thanks to ten offensive rebounds. Their ball distribution was also noteworthy as they tallied eighteen assists while maintaining an assist-to-turnover ratio of over one.


While TCU did manage to convert seven three-pointers at a rate of forty-one percent from beyond the arc and made thirteen free throws at eighty-one percent accuracy, it wasn't enough to challenge Texas' lead or momentum during any part of this matchup.
