No. 7 Texas vs. No. 2 Tennessee in Round of 32

The No. 7 seed Texas Longhorns (21-12) beat Colorado State Thursday night to advance to the Round of 32 for a third consecutive season. That's a program first since 2009. 

Rodney Terry and Longhorns will face a very familiar coach in the Round of 32, Rick Barnes. 

No. 2 seed Tennessee (25-8) beat up on a bad Saint Peter's offensive team Thursday night to the tune of 83-49. 

No. 7 Texas and No. 2 Tennessee will tip off at 7 p.m. central Saturday night in front of a national television audience on CBS.

I am not sure the new portal era is a good thing for a Self. He's used to building his program with 2-4 year guys. He went to the portal big time last year, and this was likely the worst team he's had since the back to back 1st round upsets. He's likely going to have to completely rebuild through the portal next year as well. McCullar, Dickinson, and Furphy are likely done.

Something I miss Texas having, are the 6'6"-6'9" wing/forwards that Rick could recruit in spades. Boddicker, Thomas, Buckman, James, and Johnson. I am jealous of of San Diego State having Ledee. That dude is a brick wall. Sad, he's from Houston too.

Disu probably could have been another one of those guys if he had ever been healthy enough to put on lean muscle during the offseason(s).

Abmas and Hunter.  About the worst any backcourt in America has played this year.

Rodney Terry has no clue what's going on, much less how to stop Tennessee or help his team score.

Team is fighting their asses off right now. Don't know if they have enough to pull it out, but what an effort.

That is true.  Seems like they are so timid.

Brock taking one for the team.

Need to draw up a play heading to the basket or get Abmas open from 3.

RT is a moron. There was zero reason to foul and give Tenn free throws. Absolutely stupid. Make them make a shot. Not like Tenn had been on fire shooting the ball. So freaking stupid.
