Aaliyah Moore scored 17 points and Madison Booker added 15 as No. 11 Texas cruised past Kansas 91-56 on Tuesday in Austin, Texas.

The Longhorns (17-2, 4-2 Big 12) opened up a 47-26 halftime edge and eventually went up by as many as 38 points. Khadija Faye added 14 points and eight rebounds and Shaylee Gonzales contributed 12 points for Texas, which bounced back after losing 61-58 at then-No. 12 Kansas State on Saturday.

S'Mya Nichols led the Jayhawks (9-8, 2-4) with 14 points and five assists, while Zakiyah Franklin scored 11 points. Kansas had won its previous two contests, including a victory over then-No. 4 Baylor last Wednesday.

Texas connected on 59 percent of its field-goal attempts, including 7 of 11 3-point tries, and converted 22 Kansas turnovers into 30 points. The Jayhawks shot 33.3 percent from the floor and made only 1 of 13 3-point attempts.
