Allen scored 17 for the Longhorns . Carr, Rice and Allen scored 40 of Texas’ 47 points in the second half.
Pop Isaacs scored 23 points to lead Texas Tech , which played better after a 34-point loss at No. 14 Iowa State, but still fell to 0-5 in conference play for the first time since 2015. A season after reaching the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16, the Red Raiders share the Big 12 basement with West Virginia. "He brought so much more to us in versatility," said Tyson, who had 12 points and 14 rebounds. "He’s going to help us tremendously."
"I wouldn’t say we’re a second half team. We’re not trying to get off bad starts," Carr said. "We know, especially on the road, you can’t dig yourself in hole. I do like we’re still able to fight."Texas Tech got to the free throw line twice in the final four seconds and trailing by three both times. In each case, the Red Raiders shooter had to make the first and miss the second, hoping for a rebound and a chance to tie.
