Thomas Robinson scored 18 points, and No. 3 Kansas used a huge second half to post an 82-57 victory over pesky Texas Arlington on Wednesday and extend its NCAA-best home winning streak to 66 games.

Markieff Morris added 14 points for the Jayhawks (12-0), who scored 46 points in the second half en route to their 41st straight home win against non-conference opponents.

It wasn’t the typical wire-to-wire blowout fans at Allen Fieldhouse have become accustomed to, though. The Mavericks (5-6) battled Kansas for nearly 30 minutes before the Jayhawks sealed it with an 18-5 run.

Texas-Arlington, which hails from the Southland Conference, pulled to within 40-35 early in the second half. But Kansas finally awoke from its daze and scored 18 of the next 23 points to take a commanding 58-40 advantage with 12:04 remaining.

The Jayhawks then turned it into the blowout everyone expected.

Bo Ingram had 20 points for the Mavericks, who held a brief 18-13 lead early in the first half. Texas Arlington trailed 36-28 at halftime.
