In that second half, Louisiana Tech scored 47 points. Isaiah Crawford and Cobe Williams led the comeback effort scoring 34 of the 47 points.

Two free throws by Crawford with 18 seconds remaining tied the game at 65.

Kai Huntsberry would then hit a jumper with 4 seconds remaining to ultimately give North Texas the 67-65 win.

Crawford finished with a season-high 25 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 steals in 36 minutes of action for the Bulldogs.
