Match Info
Tarleton State University held off a late rally to defeat the Southern Utah Thunderbirds 78-74 in NCAA basketball on February 20, 2026. The Texans built a substantial lead and then withstood a furious Southern Utah comeback attempt to secure a home conference win. Tarleton State was in control for most of the game, leading by as many as 15 points in the second half thanks to hot three-point shooting. However, Southern Utah switched to a full-court press and mounted a dramatic rally, cutting the deficit to just two points in the final minute. The Texans showed poise under pressure, breaking the press for a crucial layup and then sinking key free throws to ice the game.
