00:00Meanwhile, Texas, another team in the SEC, certainly with an outside shot, not just to
00:05make the tournament, but to go on a deep run.
00:08Their defense has been very good.
00:09They win 61-53 yesterday, the final.
00:13So what do you make of Texas?
00:15And is this upcoming schedule going to maybe teach us a little bit more about what we can
00:20potentially expect moving forward?
00:22Yeah, I think they showed last night that they can be exceptional defensively.
00:27They basically wiped every solid Missouri player off the floor, Caleb Grille, Mike Mitchell.
00:33No one got anything done for the Tigers.
00:36And now what Texas has to do in order to get themselves squarely in the tournament picture,
00:42and anybody, as NC State showed last year, anybody that's in there that has a reasonable
00:48amount of talent can make a run.
00:51I don't think we could ever say that's not possible after what we saw from the Wolfpack
00:54a year ago.
00:56And certainly, Texas has a reasonable amount of talent.
00:58So getting in is a lot of the trick.
01:00And getting in against this SEC, again, is where the problem lies.
01:05Because Texas does not have a number of high-level victories.
01:08Last night would certainly qualify as one that will help them because it's a team that's
01:12almost certainly going to be in the tournament.
01:15So Texas needs more of that.
01:18And they're going to have to be able to take this defense on the road.
01:20They say defense always travels.
01:23Texas hasn't always packed its bags with the D included.
01:26So that's something that they're going to have to do when they resume going on the road
01:31in the SEC.
