It’s been awhile since anyone has said spoken these words but today, Texas has a chance to earn a Sweet 16 berth. Oof, that feels weird to say.
In a 3-seed vs 6-seed match-up, the Longhorns will have their hands full against the Purdue Boilermakers. Boasting one of the top offenses in the country, and led by a pair of future NBA players, the Boilermakers present a much different challenge than Virginia Tech.
For starters, their offense ranks 2nd in KenPom’s adjusted efficiency rating and ESPN’s BPI.
