It’s important to remember that this is an incredibly young team that was short-handed for their season opener. Texas lost their entire starting lineup from last season and will be leaning heavily on a talented freshman class in 2016-17. On top of that, the team dressed just 10 players in this game with Kerwin Roach and Tevin Mack serving suspensions for rules violations during the offseason.
That lack of experience and depth showed up at times against Incarnate Word. Texas turned the ball over a bunch in the first half and then blew a double-digit second half lead.
