March 17, 2026: Texas going dancing, kinda

About this episode

The episode discusses the Texas Longhorns men's basketball team's journey to the NCAA Tournament and their upcoming game against NC State, alongside the women's team's success.

The Texas Longhorns men's basketball team managed to find its way into the NCAA Tournament, but they still need to win a game to find its way into the field of 64. They will face off against the NC State Wolfpack, a team they beat at the start of the season in the Maui Invitational. Can they depend on the offense they had early in the season, or will they crash out in the First Four? Conversely, the Texas women locked up a No. 1 seed and actually await the winner of a First Four matchup. They have an opportunity to play the first two weeks of the tournament in the state of Texas, hosting the first weekend and then travelling to Fort Worth for the second set of games.
