The Texas Longhorns (19-14, 8-12) look to continue their Cinderella run through the SEC Tournament this afternoon when they take the court in Nashville against the Tennessee Volunteers (25-6, 12-6).
Two wins in two days for Texas as the Longhorns outlasted the Aggies of Texas A&M yesterday with a 94-89 win in double overtime. Tre Johnson scored 20 in the win for Texas.
The Volunteers begin play in the SEC Tournament having won four of their last five games including a 75-65 win over South Carolina in their regular season finale last weekend.
These teams last played each other on January 11. Tennesse won, 74-70 but did not cover the 4.5 point spread. The OVER of 137.5 cashed.
