83-69 Texas 4:00 2H | Horns lead by as much as 21 but the Sooners have made it a 14-point game with 4:00 left. Tyrese Hunter has a season high 26 points on 8-for-12 shooting with 74 Disu and Mitchell have 14p apiece.
Texas is looking at the 8-seed for the Big 12 Tournament, but could get up for No. 7 with some help later today. https://t.co/N2KD7cHSXN
The afternoon belongs to Tyrese Hunter. A season-high 26 to go along with 7 dimes as Texas takes a 14-point lead into the under-4. Horns polishing off a 20th win as they will be as close to an NCAA Tournament lock without QUITE being a lock as Championship Week looms.
Have a day, Tyrese Hunter!
