Texas Basketball has one guaranteed game remaining this season Wednesday at the Big 12 Tournament.

If Texas wants to make it past the Big 12 Tournament to the NCAA Tournament, they will need to win four games in four days.

The journey starts Wednesday against Texas Tech, who the Horns won and lost against during the regular season. The journey will also require Texas to win away from Austin for the first time this season.

Yes, this would be a miracle run, as Jarrett Allen described after the Longhorns’ seventh straight loss on Saturday to close the regular season.

So, in order for Shaka Smart’s team to pull off a miracle from the #10 spot in the Big 12 tourney, these five players will need to have an epic week of basketball.
