A huge second half sent the Horned Frogs (20-11) into Friday's semifinals to face Kansas. It's just the second-ever appearance for TCU in the Big 12 semifinals.

The Longhorns (21-11) led by as many as 20 points in the first half and were up 40-22 at halftime.

The game was tied at 60 after the Longhorns' Christian Bishop made a free throw with 1:01 to play. Eddie Lampkin hit a jumper in the lane with 38 seconds left to give TCU the lead, and Texas' Marcus Carr then missed a contested layup with 25 seconds remaining.

After a foul and a timeout, Farabello made two free throws to make it a two-possession game and close out the TCU victory. Mike Miles added 13 points for TCU while Lampkin added 10 points and nine rebounds. Miller tallied nine points and 12 rebounds.

Timmy Allen led the Longhorns with 16 points, with Courtney Ramey adding 15. Both players had nine rebounds. Texas was held to a season-low 20 points in the second half, when it shot just 22.6 percent.

The Horned Frogs took a 12-7 lead in the first half on Baugh's 3-pointer at the 11:07 mark.
