TCU to face Syracuse in NCAA Tournament Round of 64

TCU learned its NCAA tournament fate on Sunday, and the Horned Frogs will be making their first NCAA Tournament appearance in two decades. The Frogs were given the No. 6 seed in the midwest region, where they'll meet either No. 11 seeded Syracuse in the round of 64. The Orange beat the Arizona Sun Devils 60-56 in one of the Wednesday play-in games for the chance to take on the Frogs.

The Frogs will open the tournament at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan. The game will tipoff at 8:45 p.m. Friday on CBS.

TCU coach Jamie Dixon has a favorable history against Syracuse head coach Jim Boeheim.
