TEAM

Texas improved to 99-9 (.917) at the Erwin Center in the last seven seasons [dating back to the start of the 2005-06 season] and 189-24 (.887) at the Erwin Center under Rick Barnes.

Texas has held 222 of its 455 opponents to under 40% field-goal shooting in the Rick Barnes era. UT sports a 203-19 (.914) mark in the Barnes era when accomplishing the feat.

Texas has held its last five opponents to an average of 51.7 points per game; its last five opponents have shot 31.4% from the field (108-of-344), including a 33-of-115 (.287) from three-point range.

Texas scored 53 points in the first half, marking its highest point total in a half (first or second) this season. The 53-30 halftime margin marked Texas' biggest halftime lead of the season.

Texas held Nicholls State to three made field goals in the second half, which ties the school mark for fewest field goals allowed in a half. Texas allowed only 10 points in the second half, which ties the school mark for fewest points allowed in a second half (UT allowed 10 points in the second half to Baylor on Jan. 21, 1984)
The 53-point margin of victory (93-40) marked the 10th-largest margin of victory by Texas in a home contest in school history. It marked the fifth-largest margin of victory by Texas in a game played at the Erwin Center and largest since a 62-point win (104-42) against UT-Pan American on Dec. 15, 2009.
