Texas and Saint Joseph's will square off for just the second time ever on Friday night when they tip off in the Legends Classic championship game in New York. Texas rides a four-game winning streak into the final, while Saint Joseph's has been victorious in three straight contests. Their meeting will be their first since the Longhorns recorded a 68-50 victory on Nov. 24, 2008. Saint Joseph's (4-1) overcame squandering a 16-point lead in Thursday's 78-77 victory over Texas Tech in the semifinals. Justice Ajogbor made the second of his two free throws with 13 seconds remaining to snap a tie and cap the scoring.
