    Tennessee is No. 6 in the NCAA in field goal % defense ... https://www.ncaa.com/stats/basketball-men/d1/current/team/149 This will be the key Saturday ... Texas will be forced to make a lot of contested shots in the mid-range and from three.

    I'm not going that far. From a matchup stand point ... UH was the team that Texas had to play their best game. Tennessee is a good team, not great. Saint Peter's is an awful offensive team, so Tennessee could choke them out. Tennessee won't be able to choke Texas out. Texas will have to make contested shots in the mid-range and from three. Dalton Knecht is a tough individual match up for Texas on the defensive end.

    For sure. Rick Barnes won't let Abmas and Disu beat him, but they must shoot it better Saturday to have realistic shot. Texas will very likely have to score 70 to win Saturday. The supporting cast will need to score 45-50 IMO ... that's Hunter, Brock, Weaver, Horton, Mitchell and Shedrick.

    That's also the last time a Rick Barnes' coached team advanced to back-to-back Sweet 16's. So something will have to give Saturday night ... Either Texas breaks the streak or Rick Barnes breaks his streak

    Texas hasn't advanced to the Sweet 16 in back-to-back seasons since the 2003-04 season. That was Rick Barnes' best run at Texas ... Sweet 16 TJ's freshman year, Final Four TJ's sophomore year and Sweet 16 the year after.

    No question about it!

    Going to be so interesting ... RT, Frank Haith and Ogden know exactly how Rick Barnes thinks as a head coach.

    So many fun things to talk about around this game... Chris Ogden was recruited by Rick Barnes out of Seminole High. Ogden was a member of Rick Barnes' only Final Four team. Chris Ogden was also an assistant coach for Barnes at both Texas and Tennessee. Rodney Terry and Frank Haith were both associate head coaches on Rick Barnes' staff at Texas at different times. Both were assistants on the Texas staff in 2002-03 when the Longhorns advanced to the Final Four.

    Texas is now 4-10 vs. NCAA Tournament teams on the season with the win last night. Tennessee is 11-8 vs. NCAA Tournament teams with the win last night. All eight losses this season are to Field of 68 teams.

    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.

    Just one hell of an awful call at 90-89 ...

    That's where I'm at as well. His snap anticipation is very high-end, along with everything else.

    Tennessee is 10-8 vs. teams in the NCAA Tournament. Only losses this season are to tournament teams. They are very good at guard because of multiple players with different strengths. Obviously, Knecht is going to be a difficult matchup for Texas. The Horns don't have the ideal 1v1 defender for him. Ziegler is a quality driver of the ball, but an improved three point shooter. A pest on defense. Aidoo is the key Saturday. Have to limit him off the weakside offensive glass. And pump/ball fake him on the defensive end IMO. If Tennessee's size at guard gives Texas issues, it will be a steep climb IMO.
