The Texas Longhorns just keep dancin’.
With a chance to advance to their first Elite 8 in 15 years, Rodney Terry’s group was phenomenal and had few issues dismantling the Xavier Musketeers, 83-71, in a game that wasn’t nearly as close as the score.
Here are a few thoughts from Texas’ blowout win.
This was just a masterful performance from the Longhorns. And that’s only elevated because of the instant in-game adversity they faced. Dylan Disu’s day was done just a couple minutes in due to injury, Sir’Jabari Rice got himself into early foul trouble, and similarly, foul trouble proved to be a factor for several Longhorns all game.
