The Cowboys took the lead for good with a 9-2 run, capped by Forte's long 3-pointer for a 45-41 lead with about 12 minutes left and held off Texas when Javan Felix and Taylor got back-to-back baskets to cut the Cowboy lead to three. Hickey answered with a putback and an assist on Tavarius Shine's 3-pointer for a 58-50 advantage with about four minutes left and Forte hit a 3-pointer and a tough jumper in the next two minutes to answer Texas 3-pointers.
