The No. 23 Texas Longhorns (16-6, 5-4) return to the Erwin Center on Saturday to host the No. 20 Iowa State Cyclones (16-6, 3-6) in the third game of their five-game stretch against top-25 opponents.
It’s the second meeting for the two teams after Iowa State created separation in the first half in Ames and held off Texas for a 79-70 win in which the Longhorns turned the ball over 20 times, leading to 23 points for the Cyclones.
The guard play was so bad that Chris Beard played walk-on Tristen Licon for 11 minutes and Avery Benson for six minutes.
