Houston clinches outright Big 12 title, then routs Kansas by 30

HOUSTON -- Jamal Shead had 13 points, six rebounds and eight assists, Damian Dunn added 12 points and No. 1 Houston dominated No. 14 Kansas 76-46 on Saturday.

The win came hours after the Cougars, in their first season in the league, secured the outright Big 12 Conference regular-season title following No. 6 Iowa State's loss to Kansas State.

L.J. Cryer scored 11 points and J'Wan Roberts had 10 points and eight rebounds for the Cougars (28-3, 15-3), who shot 46% from the field and hit 6 3-pointers on the way to a 40-21 lead at the half.
