I like Nic Codie's effort, but that bucket by Condon is where you miss Traore's size and physicality (or the lack of a legit option at the 4 position).

Texas is only 6-for-10 at the foul line tonight.

Codie goes right at Haugh for a big bucket.

Sean Miller said this Florida team has a chance to go down as historically good defensively. Texas is shooting 59.1 percent, approaching the four-minute mark of the first half (13-for-22).

Nothing mid-range for Florida offensively. It's either a three or a tremendous effort to get to the rim.

Tramon Mark is locked in, which is great for Texas.

Starters are back on the floor, except Codie is in for Matas, coming out of the media timeout.

Texas 27, Florida 26 6:58 to go, 1H

Texas is 12-for-20 from the field after Matas' bucket.

Tramon Mark already has 10 points on 4-for-5 shooting (2-for-3 on 3-pointers).

Texas with nine points off four Florida turnovers after Swain's run-out dunk.

It was an 8-0 run by the Longhorns before that second-chance bucket (and Matas' first foul).

Texas 18, Florida 12 11:22 to go, 1H

Hellacious start for the Longhorns!

The Longhorns have made their last three shots and five of their last seven.
