Freshman Tre Johnson and graduate guard, Tramon Mark, tied up for the leader at the age of 18, with Johnson also making five assists. Mark’s defense presence proved to be important for the shocking difference in the result. Going person against a person against a senior LSU Carter guard, Mark only detained him at six points, compared to his average for his season of 17.9.

But the excellent performance came from the graduate of the attacker Kadin City.

A master played his best game of the year by recording the 16 points 16 points and 10 fights for his second double double from 2024-25.

Texas started with an early lead, even after the LSU Dji Bailey sent the crowd with a huge dipping over a chief. Some rpm have helped Longhorns when they are released earlier, which continued the whole game. LSU is more special one of the oldest teams on a national scale regarding the control of the ball, but there were only six turnover in the first half. The dashboard read 31-25 until the teams headed for their changing rooms for the vacation.

Junior guard Jordan Pope recorded his first points in the game with three, quickly followed by a jumper in Midrange.

Longhorns seemed to have found their channel in the shooting game. Passing 47.6% from a distance, seven different Texas players managed to place three on the board by the last seven minutes of the second half. Texas shoots exactly 68.6% in the second half and a total of 56.3%. This is an incredible difference from less than a month ago when Longhorns competed to transform their attempts.

Of course, LSU turnover was a huge help. The tigers had a huge 15 until the end of the game, compared to the seven Texas.

However, Longhorns are on the move. With the advent of the tournament at the Southeast Conference for several short weeks, they won four of their last games at the most competitive conference in the country. After the Texas disorder against Texas A&M, Johnson summarized it perfectly.

“It’s the will to want to win,” he said. “This is necessary and we start getting this and learning how to win games.”
