Texas is enjoying one of its best regular seasons in quite some time. The Longhorns last earned a top seed in March Madness back in 2003 ahead of a Final Four run.

Six games and the Big 12 Tournament remain on the schedule for Texas to beef up its resume down the stretch. Winning what is widely believed to be the strongest conference in college basketball would be an excellent argument for a No. 1 seed.
