By A     Jan 31, 2008

Texas' D.J. Augustin lies on the ground after falling while defending. No. 23 Texas A&M flogged No. 10 Texas, 80-63, Wednesday in College Station, Texas.

? Texas A&M’s confidence was sagging after a tough start to Big 12 play.

Nothing like a victory over archrival Texas to get things back on track.

Josh Carter scored 19 points, and No. 23 Texas A&M cruised to an easy 80-63 victory over No. 10 Texas on Wednesday night.

Carter, who had 10 rebounds, has scored at least 10 points in 15 straight games. He helped A&M break a three-game winning streak for Texas and continue a four-year tradition of the home team winning in this series.

“This helps a lot ,” Carter said of the win. “I think some of us lost some confidence with the losses.”

Nebraska 66, Missouri 62

Columbia, Mo. – Aleks Maric had 13 points and 13 rebounds, and Ryan Anderson made a clinching steal and layup with 16 seconds to go, helping Nebraska hold off severely shorthanded Missouri.
