Iowa State guard Tamin Lipsey drives to the basket against Texas guard Tyrese Hunter during the first half of an NCAA college basketball game in Austin, Texas, Tuesday, Feb. 21, 2023. AUSTIN — Sir'Jabari Rice and Tyrese Hunter each scored 15 points and No. 8 Texas raced away from No. 23 Iowa State with a big first half to earn a 72-54 win Tuesday night that kept the Longhorns at the top of the Big 12.
Texas shook off a sluggish start with a 16-0 run keyed by Hunter that ignited the home crowd. Hunter was the Big 12 freshman of the year last season at Iowa State before transferring to Texas. The Cyclones , who beat Texas in their first matchup, kept sagging off shooters in the corners and the Longhorns kept the shots swishing.
Texas cooled off in the second half and went nearly six minutes without a basket before Brock Cunningham made a 3-pointer. But Iowa State did little to cut its deficit, making just two baskets in the same span.
