Agree we both got screwed to set up this matchup. I think the game is a tossup if it happens

Both teams are playing great basketball but their wins over Kansas last week were impressive. I hope I'm wrong but they will be a tough one.

I agree, the NCAA should have saved this one for the later rounds.

I give you all the edge in what should be a great game based on your past week's performance. I have to admit that was some great basketball.

This reminds me of that Championship trophy with no date on it sitting in Jimbo's office. Got to reach Texas before asking who we're pulling for.

I'm not counting out Buzz and A&M. They are certainly capable and anything can happen but if you are asking to put down my marker, gotta go with Texas.

I think A&M has the better team. I honestly haven't figured out why so many A&M fans were upset about the matchup. I think the selection committee did them a favor.


upset at the seed, and having to play a tougher team rnd 1. also texas is much better than the # 16 or so team we should be facing in rnd 2, none of which concern me as much.

I’ll be honest and say I didn’t like seeing that pop up and was shocked A&M was a 7. To me it is pretty evident they lowered their seed to create this scenario.

I don’t think any Texas fan can ever feel that great about the tournament - we are used to having the kinds of teams you can’t trust - and although it shouldn’t matter - if you don’t have that kind of pedigree and history it just organically makes you feel nervous about the prospects. That being said, if I was ever going to trust a Horns hoops team it would be this one. The maturity and age of the team, great FT shooting team, depth, good guard play - it’s what you want for March. It doesn’t mean we can’t fizzle out in the second game, just makes me feel better about our position and that we can handle adversity - obviously we’ve had it in spades this year with the Beard ordeal.

If you want to be technical both teams got screwed - though I will say I’m very optimistic about the other half of the bracket if we can make it to the second weekend. Houston/Xavier probably would’ve been my first two picks for 1/3 seeds respectively.
