Madison Booker erupted for 27 points as No. 2 Texas remained unbeaten by throttling No. 13 Baylor 89-54 on Sunday on a neutral court in Fort Worth, Texas.
The Longhorns (12-0) trailed 11-8 but rattled off the next 16 points and did not waver or look back. Jordan Lee came off the bench to record a 19-point afternoon and Rori Harmon topped all passers with 10 assists.
The Bears (10-2) succumbed to Texas' pressure, committing 30 turnovers that led to 42 points. Taliah Scott, Yuting Deng and Marcayla Johnson all scored nine points and Darianna Littlepage-Buggs battled to grab 14 rebounds.
Ranked opponents improved to 2-1 against Baylor, which beat then-No. 7 Duke 58-52 in the season opener and lost 57-52 to then-No. 19 Iowa later in November.
No. 21 Ohio State 85, Toledo 60
Kennedy Cambridge's career-high 23 points helped the Buckeyes erase an early deficit and outclass the Rockets in Columbus.
Chance Gray tallied 15 points and Jaloni Cambridge added 12 with eight assists for Ohio State (9-1), which trailed 20-17 through one quarter and led 37-33 at halftime. In the third quarter, the Cambridge sisters' transition scoring sparked a pivotal 12-1 run.
Paced by Ella Weaver's 21 points, Toledo (3-5) shot 63.2% from the field in the first half but went cold after intermission, shooting just 33.3%. Close to half of Ohio State's points (41) came off the Rockets' 31 turnovers.
No. 24 Nebraska 85, Illinois State 44
Petra Bozan poured in 14 points and the Cornhuskers' defense applied the clamps in a blowout win over the Redbirds in Lincoln, Neb.
Nebraska (11-0) opened a 21-2 lead by surrendering just one made field goal on 13 attempts in the first quarter. Standout showings from Britt Prince (13 points) and Amiah Hargrove and Eliza Maupin (11 apiece) enabled the Cornhuskers to shoot 62% from inside the arc and 52.9% overall.
Illinois State (5-6) never threatened to dent Nebraska's perfect record. The Redbirds sank 1 of 10 3-pointers and were outscored 58-28 in the paint despite freshman forward Kya Hurt's game-high 18 points.
