• Tre Johnson scores 20 points and makes a couple clutch shots to help the Longhorns pull off a critical win over Texas A&M in double overtime. Texas absolutely had to have that one to have a realistic shot at the NCAA tourney.

• The Longhorns likely need a win to keep their NCAA tournament hopes alive. Texas A&M would love to knock its rival out of the field. High stakes SEC tournament action getting tense.
• North Carolina is also a bubble team, but it helped its case massively with a win here combined with Xavier’s loss earlier. Next up for the Tar Heels? A date with No. 1 Duke in the ACC semifinals tomorrow.
• Marquette holds off Xavier in the Big East quarterfinals. It’s a costly loss for Xavier, which is squarely on the bubble. Did the Musketeers just cost themselves an NCAA tourney trip?
• It’s been close the whole way through. Marquette has the upper hand going into the under-4 timeout.
• Xavier is a bubble team that desperately needs a win here. Buckle up.

• The Rebels got a rebound on a missed free throw with 7.9 seconds left in a tie game and guard Sean Pedulla drilled the game-winning 3:
