The Horns won today against Oral Roberts and are now 11-0 on the season but again struggled with an inferior team at home. Tied at the half Texas was able to pull away thanks to 24 points from [tag]DJ Augustin[/tag] and 10 of the last 17.
No one for the Horns shot the ball particularly well, including Augustin who scored 11 of his points from the free throw line. [tag]AJ Abrams[/tag] shot only 33% from the field including a horrid 1 of 6 from beyond the arc. That continues a disturbing stretch of mediocre 3-point shooting for Abrams, it’s been nearly a month since he shot better than 33% or made more than 3 in a game. [tag]Connor Atchley[/tag]’s strong play continued though, as the junior chipped in 16 points and was the only Longhorn who shot well from either side of the 3-point line.
Next up for Texas is a nationally televised game Saturday against Michigan State. The Horns and #9 Spartans will face off at 5:30pm on ESPN.

Oral Roberts beat Oklahoma State pretty soundly tonight, maybe they’re better than I thought (and their record indicates)?
