The No. 18 Texas Longhorns open the 2023-24 season, the first full year under head coach Rodney Terry, with a Monday night matchup against the Incarnate Word Cardinals in Austin at the Moody Center.
Texas has won 21 straight home openers and the expectation is to extend that streak again on Monday — KenPom.com ranks Incarnate Word as the No. 355 out of 362 teams in Division I thanks to projections that have the Cardinals as equally bad on both ends of the floor. Last year, the Longhorns went 16-1 in the Moody Center in its inaugural season.
