MORAGA, Calif. -- Before the game, Scott Cross reminded his UT Arlington players they had a chance to make their mark on program history.He was like, `This would be the biggest win in school history, guard Erick Neal said. That just added fire to it and made us want to play harder.Kevin Hervey scored 15 points and UTA beat a Top 25 team for the first time, shocking previously unblemished No. 12 Saint Marys 65-51 on Thursday night just more than a week after another special and emotional win at Texas.The Mavericks (8-3) had gone 0-28 against ranked opponents dating to their first try in February 1967 after becoming Division I in 1959-60. Then, they pulled off their big upset at McKeon Pavilion, where the Gaels had won eight straight and 23 of 24, and cheers were heard from the visiting locker room.But Saint Marys (6-1) never clicked against the scrappy UTA team while returning from a break for final exams for its first game since a win at Stanford on Nov. 30. The Gaels were held to 31.4 percent from the field and shot 8 of 27 on 3-pointers.I thought we got outplayed. Pretty simple, Saint Marys coach Randy Bennett said. I thought they beat us at every phase.The speedy Neal added 13 points and eight assists in UTAs seventh straight victory.It was definitely an unbelievable game for us, Cross said. Our guys probably played as good of basketball as we could have, especially defensively, because watching them on video I honestly thought it was the best offensive team I think Ive ever seen in my entire life.Jock Landale had a rare poor shooting performance, limited to 14 points on 3 of 10 from the floor and the Gaels had a season-low 11 assists to go with 16 turnovers.Saint Marys trailed 49-30 with 11:50 to play, then used an 11-3 spurt to get back to 52-41. UTA kept answering on both ends with key baskets and rebounds -- such as a contested 3-pointer from the top by Drew Charles with 7:42 remaining.The Mavericks, from the Sun Belt Conference, used quick, crisp passing to create open looks from the perimeter and the paint to outplay the Gaels early. Three times this season -- their lone three previous losses -- squandered double-digit halftime leads in road losses at Minnesota, Florida Gulf Coast and Arkansas.They used those defeats as learning moments that have carried UTA during this run of early season success.Its a humongous deal, Hervey said. Were excited and hopefully we can build on this.Hervey hit his first three shots as UTA jumped to a 21-12 lead midway through the first half and led 36-23 at the break.Saint Marys fell behind 21-12 and 27-15 late in the first half making just 6 of its first 18 shots and 2 of 6 by the typically spot-on Landale.Defensively we werent good, offensively we werent good, Bennett said. Taking care of the ball we were bad. Rebounding we were bad.MOMENT OF SILENCEA moment of silence was held before the national anthem for the victims of the deadly warehouse fire last week in nearby Oakland.BIG PICTUREUTA: UTA held a 36-30 rebounding edge. ... The Mavericks have led at halftime in all of their games. ... UTA followed up a 99-49 victory against Division III UT Dallas by outplaying one of nations top programs in all aspects.Saint Marys: Calvin Hermanson, 21 of 40 from 3-point range coming into the game, went 1 for 7 from beyond the arc. ...

LUBBOCK, Texas -- Baker Mayfield knew Texas Techs offense would put up points Saturday night.I told some of the guys at halftime, `If youre scared and you dont want to score every drive, then stay in here, the Sooners quarterback said.The only thing to stop No. 16 Oklahoma after that was the final whistle.Mayfield passed for seven touchdowns and 545 yards to help the Sooners beat Texas Tech 66-59 in a game that broke the NCAA record for combined offensive yards with 1,708.Mayfield completed 27 of 36 passes and broke the school game touchdown mark of six held by Landry Jones. His TD passes went for 56, 49, 23, 23, 43, 34 and 15 yards.The Sooners scored on five of their six second-half possessions, and the exception was when they ran out the clock in the fourth quarter.Joe Mixon caught three touchdowns passes and Dede Westbrook had two for the Sooners (5-2, 4-0 Big 12). Mixon also ran for two touchdowns, a 46-yarder and a 42-yarder. He finished with 263 yards rushing and 114 yards receiving. Hes the first Sooner ever to reach 200 yards rushing and 100 receiving in the same game.I thought Joe Mixon just had a game for the ages, Sooners coach Bob Stoops said. Just incredible.Westbrook caught nine passes for 202 yards.Hes phenomenal, Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said. Hes just better than anybody we had on the field.Pat Mahomes threw for five touchdowns and 734 yards for Texas Tech (3-4, 1-3). His passing yards total tied the NCAA record, matching Connor Halliday when Washington State played California in 2014.Someone told me (about tying the passing record) in the locker room, Mahomes said. But, like I said, we didnt win the game, so it really didnt matter.The 125 points are the second-most in a game involving a ranked team. The record is 133 in No. 9 West Virginias 70-63 victory over No. 25 Baylor on Sept. 29, 2012.The teamss surpassed the 1,640 yards gained when Nevada played San Jose State in 2001.ddddddddddddOklahoma defensive coordinator Mike Stoops was disappointed in his unit.Everything we did, they had guys running free pretty much all night, he said. We thought we were making improvements. To fall on our face like this, weve got to re-evaluate some things were doing.Kingsbury was glad the game wasnt an embarrassment that last weeks 48-17 loss to West Virginia.I thought we were into it, a lot more passionate at least, he said. I thought at least we had good energy.THE TAKEAWAYOklahoma: The Sooners relied heavily on Mixon, who finished with 31 carries, and his work made it easier to be without Samaje Perine. Perine, who has six rushing TDs, is out for at least two weeks with a pulled leg muscle .Texas Tech: The Red Raiders defense, often derided as weak and porous, put together three stops against the Sooners in the first half. Texas Tech forced punts on two OU possessions and held the Sooners on fourth-and-1 when they stopped Mixon deep in Red Raiders territory.POLL IMPLICATIONSOklahoma likely wont move up much in the AP Top 25 poll after the win -- Texas Tech hasnt been ranked this season -- but the Red Raiders might get some votes after playing the Sooners so closely.EVEN OFFENSEBoth teams finished with the same number of total yards -- 854. The longest pass play by each quarterback was 56 yards. Mahomes had the most yards rushing: 85 to 19 for Mayfield.UP NEXTOklahoma: The Sooners play Kansas at home next Saturday.Texas Tech: The Red Raiders face TCU in Fort Worth next Saturday.----This story has been updated with the correct spelling of Landry Jones.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
