After a 65-point scoring effort in a five-point loss to No. 14 Iowa State on Tuesday, the Longhorns put up 55 in the first half against the Mountaineers (8-15, 3-7) shooting 65.7%. on their way to a 25-point lead at halftime.

Mitchell's layup with 17:36 before halftime ended a tie at 7 and sparked an 11-0 run that included consecutive 3s from Disu and one from Abmas.
