In the “That’s Not Even a State” portion of the non-conference schedule for the Texas Longhorns, the Mississippi Valley State Delta Devils arrived at the Moody Center in Austin ranked dead last in Division I in BartTorvik.com’s adjusted efficiency metrics and left as 89-43 losers on Saturday after the Longhorns outscored the Delta Devils 56-20 in the second half.
That meant that head coach Rodney Terry’s team scuffled to a 33-23 lead in the first half as Texas freshman guard Tre Johnson only scored one point on two shot attempts in 16 minutes as the Longhorns inexplicably failed to create any separation.
