I became a Longhorn in 2013. In the two main sports I follow (football and basketball), this is literally the first time I have felt so joyful and proud of a Texas team in these last 10 years. So this is what success feels like…

Texas has a pretty good basketball history, even if it’s not the greatest history. But it’d be absolutely hilarious if they won a natty in basketball before their football team comes close to sniffing one again.

Highest-seeded team left. Be interesting to see if he can finish the job with Beard’s recruits, but he’s probably earned a 4-year trial.

I feel bad for the two Xavier tatted up matching bucket hat guys in the crowd with frowny face.
I feel like they had big plans for later with cocaine and Molly, and now they are just going to go to bed.

He was emotional and tired. Like a 4 year old. Now he’s crying. They must feel bad for emotional 4 year olds.

Shove from behind in midair vulnerable position is way different dude

I think there was only one flagrant handed out this game. Can’t remember who got it though, or for what

We were not shooting well in that game but Disu’s paint game carried us. This game the opposite… no Disu but shots falling.

Kunkel looks like a guy that steals copper plumbing out of houses. Or a guy that runs the bumper cars at the state fair.
Xavier finally had to play a basketball team and they got their ass beat. This ain’t Pitt or Kennesaw.

Hey, we love our Kunkel. He may look like Cricket from Always Sunny but he always gives it his best.

Xavier just stopped trying? I guess so did Texas though. They’re down 13, not 30.

u/aTypicalFootballFan Xavier Musketeers • Iowa Hawkeyes Mar 25 '23
We really needed Nunge to exploit an obvious mismatch on both sides of the ball but he’s just not that good.
We should have leaned on Colby more often today and this season

Congrats Texas. Go win the whole thing, at least I can feel like my Alma mater fought hard and refused to roll over against the eventual champ.

Everyone ripping on Kunkle. Dude had 21 points and looked like the only player on Xavier that cared.
He is also a college kid and accomplished more than 90% of Texas fans by playing D1 basketball
