Get the better of, intellectually (8)

I believe the answer is:

outsmart

(Other definitions for outsmart that I've seen before include "Excel in cleverness" , "Outwit" , "Cunningly get the better of" , "Defeat by more skilful manoeuvring" , "Fox; deceive" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
