They then kept their good run going as they followed up an 89-84 win against DePaul with an 82-60 blowout of Creighton.

Xavier failed to complete the job though, as they were beaten 65-51 by #6 Marquette in the final.

The Musketeers have rebounded at the national championship though, following up a 72-67 win against Kennesaw State with an 84-73 victory over Pittsburgh.

Texas Form

Texas are riding a six-game win streak as they look to book their place in March Madness’ Elite Eight.

The Longhorns suffered back-to-back defeats to Baylor and TCU late in the regular season, but bounced back to close out with a 75-59 win over #3 Kansas.

They then followed that up by winning the Big 12 tournament, downing Oklahoma State 61-47 and #22 TCU 66-60 to set up another meeting with Kansas.

Texas repeated that regular season success against the #3 Wildcats, claiming the conference tournament crown with a 76-56 win.

The Longhorns have shown no signs of slowing down at March Madness, beating Colgate 81-61 and Penn State 71-66 to reach the Sweet 16.
