Memphis star Derrick Rose had to leave the game a few moments in ...with some sort of slight problem ...after he apparently got hit in the head .....but he's back in and just scored the last basket on a power move to the rim.

Justin Mason is leading Texas in scoring thus far ..... with 4 points which includes a power slam off a missed shot ...and then a steal and layup for another bucket. But right now the 'Horns are working hard to match the intensity brought by the Tigers.
