Texas vs. TCU preview

Both Texas and TCU have an opportunity to move up in the Bracketology projections with a win on this night.
And if Texas is able to claim the Big 12 Tournament crown, it’s really hard not to see Terry’s squad locking in a one-seed on Selection Sunday.
If Texas wants a shot at the Big 12 Tournament crown this weekend, it must find a way to deal with the standout junior guard Mike Miles. When Miles plays double-digit minutes for TCU this season, they boast a record of 18-5. Meanwhile, TCU is just 3-6 in games where Miles essentially wasn’t in the lineup.
