Texas basketball is back in the polls at No. 22 in the Associated Press after their 4-0 start to the 2019 season. The Horns have faced some lesser competition but did pick up a quality out of conference win when they took down Purdue on the road.
Next up for the Texas Longhorns is a trip to Madison Square Garden where they’ll participate in the 2K Empire Classic. Texas ended their season last year at MSG when they won the NIT.
Texas will play Georgetown on Thursday in the opening round and will pay either Duke or California on Friday in what could potentially be the championship game if they take care of business on Thursday.
