The Texas Longhorns left their first road trip of the season with a likely quadrant one victory over the Purdue Boilermakers. Shaka Smart and his staff should feel extremely encouraged for this upcoming season with the way their group finished in a tough environment early on. The Longhorns put together a strong showing on both sides of the ball.
Road victories like this would have been tough to come by for Texas in years past. Upperclassmen guards Matt Coleman and Andrew Jones made sure they didn’t let this one slip away, as they sealed the victory for Texas at the line late.
