The Longhorns were all smiles on selection Sunday after earning a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Texas gathered together for a bracket reveal watch party at the Moody Center on Sunday.
This marks the highest seeding for Texas basketball since the 2007-2008 season when the Horns made it all the way to the Elite Eight.
Texas is set to take on the Patriot League champion and No. 15-seeded Colgate in the first round of March Madness. A win over the Raiders could set up a potential second-round matchup between instate rivals Texas and Texas A&M.
Getting hot at the right time is a key factor for the NCAA Tournament. Texas has won four consecutive games after cruising to a Big 12 Tournament title in Kansas City this weekend. The Longhorns are a trendy pick to make it out of the midwest region and make it to the Final Four.
Rodney Terry’s group is no doubt excited to gear up for the NCAA Tournament on Thursday.
