AUSTIN – Despite not meeting its goal of the NCAA Tournament, there's still a lot for No. 3 Xavier to play for Sunday afternoon (4 p.m., ESPN) at No. 2 Texas in the second round of the National Invitation Tournament.

When the Musketeers (19-15) take the floor at the Longhorns' Erwin Center, they'll be playing for the program's sixth straight 20-win season and the right to host a quarterfinal NIT game back at Cintas Center next week.
