In the semi-final round of the Big12 Conference Tournament, the Missouri Tigers quite easily put away the Texas Longhorns 81-67. The 5th-ranked Tigers shot 52.6% from the field and were simply too much for the Longhorns to handle. J'Covan Brown scored 21 points for Texas, but didn't really get the team support needed to overcome such a top flight opponent. Missouri went on to beat Baylor the next day to wrap up the Big12 Tournament championship. Fortunately for the Longhorns, their season continues as an 11th seed in the East Region of the NCAA Tournament. Texas, with an overall record of 20-13, will face a 24-10 Cincinnati Bearcats squad on Friday in Nashville, Tennessee.
