Just a dreadful performance by Texas against Houston today. Not what Terry wants when it's fighting for an at-large NCAA Tournament
3 straight wins for @UHCougarMBK over Texas. 1st 3 game win streak in the series since 1993.
Max Abmas held to single-digits for the first time since Dec. 19, 2022 -- 47 games ago -- as Houston crushes Texas by 21.

Fans in Houston chanting “S-E-C” as @UHCougarMBK puts finishing touches on blowout win over Texas.
Max Abmas is 2-14 from the field. The @UHCougarMBK defense is making it personal.
Houston absolutely eviscerating Texas today. Cougars are up 23 points with 13 mins to play.
L.J. Cryer buries a 3-pointer to give No. 3 Houston 60-37 lead.
Houston is a load, man. Texas hasn’t helped themselves in this first half, but point stands.
Jamal Shead gets a steal and in transition stops short of going for the layup, turns and flips to L.J. Cryer for 3-pointer. No. 3 Houston leads Texas 27-20
ICYMI Texas is at No. 3 Houston this afternoon with Max Abmas 14 points shy of 3,000 for his career. About that: https://t.co/uytAgPaQcJ

NEW: Texas star Max Abmas is 14 points shy of 3,000 for his career. That number doesn't happen every year. Abmas' road to 3K needs a lot of context, so I talked to some people in trying to provide some. Horns are at No. 3 Houston tomorrow: https://t.co/uytAgPaQcJ
