Immature Longhorns Lose to Georgia in Big 12-SEC Challenge

The Longhorns basketball team lost a heart-breaker 59-57 to the Georgia Bulldogs in the Big 12-SEC Challenge. Texas still has not won a true road game this season after giving this game away in Athens, Ga.

Despite a terrible second half performance, Texas still had a chance to win, or at least extend to overtime. On the last two plays of the game, Georgia had a basket waved off due to a shot clock violation. Then, Longhorns freshman Jarrett Allen missed a turnaround hook shot at the buzzer.

In the last play, Allen received a pass in the paint, turned against his defender, and launched a perfect hook shot.
