The Texas Longhorns are headed to the NCAA Tournament for the fourth year in a row.

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.

    I think we handle uva/csu but the peacocks will be a tough matchup in the second round.
