Texas (20-12) was just announced on CBS as the No. 7 seed in the Midwest Region. 

The Longhorns will face the winner of Virginia and Colorado State in the  No. 10 seed play in game.

The Round of 64 game will take place Thursday in Charlotte, N.C. 

The winner of the Midwest Region No. 7 vs No. 10 Round of 64 game will face the winner of No. 2 seed Tennessee and No. 15 seed St. Peter’s Saturday. 

The Longhorns advanced to the Elite 8 last year.

Very favorable R64 draw for the Longhorns. Virginia flirted with the NIT after a loss to 10-Seed NC State in OT in the ACC tournament. Colorado State has four players averaging 10+ this season. Fun team from a competitive conference, though someone Texas should handle.

 

The possible meeting with Rick Barnes and Tennessee is what intrigues me the most.

Gerry!! We got our 7/10 seed to avoid the one seed round two. 
 

Big 12 got crazy respect this year.

I already had the story written as a 8/9 … I’m somewhat shocked

No Oklahoma in the tournament this year.

Also, Indiana State misses the tournament as the 27th team in the NET rating - the highest rated team to miss the tournament. Committee gave UVA the nod based off program reputation.
