The Blue Devils (11-0) forced 17 first-half turnovers and took a 29-point halftime lead on their way to a sixth road win this season.

Oklahoma State (8-1) was especially vulnerable to the full-court press with two freshmen taking over at point guard for departed second-team All-American Andrea Riley, the Big 12's all-time scoring leader.

The game was the first in a tough two-game Texas swing for the Lady Vols. Tennessee plays at No. 2 Baylor on Tuesday night.

Kathleen Nash scored 21 points to lead Texas, which committed its season average of 20 turnovers that led to 23 Tennessee points.

The loss snapped Texas' 27-game non-conference winning streak at home. The Longhorns were down to eight available scholarship players because of suspensions and illness.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) - Jessica Breland scored 24 points and keyed a late run that helped North Carolina.

North Carolina led 63-60 before Breland scored seven of the Tar Heels' next 11 points. The Tar Heels struggled to pull away despite forcing 34 turnovers by the Rebels (5-3).

North Carolina missed its first 13 3-point attempts until Lucas knocked down a 3 with 7:47 remaining for a 56-50 lead. UNLV stayed close, but tenacious defense by the Tar Heels eventually wore on the Rebels, playing their first game in the Eastern time zone in more than five seasons.

Kelli Thompson scored 22 points to lead UNLV.

Kelsey Bolte had 11 points for the Cyclones (7-2), who bounced back from a 22-point loss at No. 19 Iowa with a dominating effort over the Lions.

Iowa State struggled early, but a 12-0 run late in the first half helped the Cyclones take a 31-14 lead. Jessica Schroll opened the second half with a 3, and Christopherson's layup with 12:51 left put Iowa State ahead 46-19.
