Michigan State 71 Indiana 66

Gary Harris scored 20 of his 24 points in the second half, helping the Spartans beat Indiana 71-66 on Tuesday night to remain unbeaten in the Big Ten.

Michigan State (18-1, 7-0) has won 11 straight games, extending their best one-loss start in a season in school history despite playing poorly at times with an injury-depleted roster.

The Hoosiers (12-7, 2-4) have lost two straight and four of six. After beating then-No. 3 Wisconsin at home last week, they lost at home to Northwestern.

Kentucky 68 Texas A&M 51

Alex Poythress scored a season-high 16 points as No. 14 Kentucky routed the Aggies 68-51 on Tuesday night.

Freshman Dakari Johnson added seven rebounds, six points and a career-high three blocks as the Wildcats outrebounded the Aggies 42-24 and were nearly even with them in the paint (30-32).

James Young added 15 points and seven rebounds while Julius Randle had 13 points with 11 rebounds for Kentucky which shot 44 percent (22 of 50) from the field and was 18 of 27 at the free throw line.

Pittsburgh 76 Clemson 43

Talib Zanna scored 22 points on near flawless shooting and the 20th-ranked Panthers drilled Clemson 76-43 on Tuesday night.

Zanna connected on 9 of 10 shots, most of them dunks or layups, as the Panthers (17-2, 5-1 ACC) bounced back from the potentially crushing loss to the Orange by overwhelming the Tigers.

Lamar Patterson scored 13 points and grabbed six rebounds to become the 19th Pitt player to top 1,000 points and 500 rebounds.

Connecticut 90 Temple 66

DeAndre Daniels scored a career-high 31 points and Shabazz Napier added 27 to lead UConn to a 90-66 win Tuesday over Temple in the first meeting between the two schools in 49 years.

Daniels also grabbed 12 rebounds for his fourth career double-double. Napier had seven rebounds and dished out six assists for the Huskies (15-4, 3-3 American Athletic Conference).

Temple guard Will Cummings, who had missed the last two games with concussion-like symptoms, started and had 20 points to lead the Owls (5-12, 0-6).
