Takeaways Southern: The Jaguars, picked to finish second in the Southwestern Athletic Conference by the league's coaches and sports information directors, have faced a difficult nonconference schedule. They have lost to eight teams from power four conferences by an average of 28 points.

Texas: The Longhorns used their size advantage to outscore Southern 40-16 in the paint and induce fouls. Texas attempted 28 more free throws than Southern and made 24 more.

Key moment Texas pulled away for a 46-24 halftime lead thanks in part to a boost from Oldacre, a backup center who joined the Longhorns this season after transferring from Miami. She scored eight points in four minutes during the second quarter, including a fast-break layup after making a steal.

Key stat In addition to shooting poorly, Southern committed 18 turnovers, seven fewer than Texas opponents average. But the Longhorns used them efficiently to take a 29-4 edge in points off turnovers.

Up next Southern hosts Jarvis Christian on Sunday, and Texas is at Richmond on Sunday.
