(AP) -- Jordan Hamilton broke out of a two-game shooting slump with 20 points and No. 5 Texas rebounded from its first loss in a month with a 76-53 rout of Iowa State on Tuesday night.
Tristan Thompson shook off an early flub when he tipped the ball into the wrong basket to finish with 17 points and 14 rebounds for the Longhorns (24-4, 12-1 Big 12). Hamilton and Thompson keyed a big Texas run at the start of the second half that put the game away.
Texas had won 11 straight to grab first place in the Big 12 before losing at Nebraska last weekend. The Longhorns sent Iowa State (14-14, 1-12) to its 10th straight loss.
Diante Garrett scored 16 points to lead the Cyclones.
