Last night, or more accurately, yesterday evening, was quite literally a movie for the Texas Longhorns as they faced the No. 5 seed Arkansas Razorbacks in the semifinals of the SEC Soccer Tournament.
Fresh off knocking out the nationally ranked No. 1 Vanderbilt Commodores, the Horns built a 2-1 lead that was wiped away with just a few minutes remaining on the clock.
After a scoreless OT, the game went to penalty kicks, and none other than sophomore forward Ava McDonald (who had scored the first game of regulation for Texas) knocked in the winning shot to send the Longhorns back to the SEC Championship.

TEXAS TO THE SEC TITLE GAME
DOWN GO THE HOGS
HOOK’EMMMMMMM HORNS
As the No. 9 seed, the Horns are the lowest-ever seed to make the SEC title game, and they will face the No. 2 seed South Carolina Gamecocks on Sunday afternoon. It will be a rematch of the 2024 SEC Championship, when Texas claimed the tournament title during its first year in the conference.
No. 7 Texas men prep for old Big 12 rivalry matchup against Baylor Bears
With a 3-0 record already to their name, Sean Miller and the Longhorn men's basketball team have had a fantastic start to their season. However, they are now staring down the barrel of an old Big 12 rivalry, as they prepare to take on the Baylor Bears in San Antonio this weekend.
While the Bears may not be the same powerhouse team they once were, this will undeniably be the first true test of the Horns' season and a great chance for Baylor to wreak some havoc on the national rankings.
No. 7 Texas and currently unranked Baylor are scheduled to play at 2 p.m. CT on Sunday, Nov. 15, at the San Antonio Spurs' Frost Bank Center. This is a perfect chance for Miller's squad to get its first big-time win of the year.

While all of those teams are already in the midst of a raging regular season, the Texas baseball team is already knocking it out of the park before the first pitch of the season is even thrown.
Head coach Jim Schlossnagle just had 18 blue-chip prospects put pen to paper on National Singing Day, officially committing to the Longhorns. While they could technically still head to the MLB Draft instead of ever playing in college, it was a massive day on the 40 Acres.
The Texas baseball season is scheduled to start on Friday, Feb. 19, against the Clemson Tigers in the annual Shriners Children's College Showdown.
