Texas downs WVU

MORGANTOWN, W.Va.–Courtney Ramey scored 19 points as Texas routed West Virginia 75-53 on Saturday night.

The Longhorns (14-10, 6-5 Big 12) dominated the Mountaineers (10-14, 2-9) in almost every aspect of the game.

Texas had a 42-34 edge on the boards, scoring 14 second chance points. The Longhorns made nine 3-pointers.

Texas had a 40-22 edge in the paint. The Longhorns threw down eight dunks in the second half.

“It’s embarrassing,” WVU head coach Bob Huggins said. “I’m embarrassed. I’m not sure our guys are, but I was embarrassed.

Kerwin Roach II tallied 14 points for Texas. Dylan Osetkowski grabbed 10 rebounds.

Esa Ahmad led the Mountaineers with 14 points. Derek Culver added seven points, 11 rebounds and four assists.

“The reality is, they’re more talented than we are,” Huggins said. “We have to do things right, and we didn’t do things right.”

WVU shot 35 percent from the field, made just 3-of-16 from beyond the arc and 70 percent from the charity stripe.

The Longhorns shot 45 percent from the floor, 39 percent from 3-point range and 62 percent from the line.

Beetle Bolden missed his fourth straight game while Sagaba Konate missed his 15th.

The Mountaineers travel to Kansas to take on the Jayhawks next Saturday at 4 p.m. (ET).
