The No. 2 Texas Longhorns women’s basketball team took care of business against a pair of ranked teams, extending its win streak to 10 games in the process. With the win, the Longhorns have officially put themselves in a position to win the SEC regular season title and get a No. 1 seed in both the conference and the NCAA Tournament. The men started the week out with an embarrassing loss to No. 1 Alabama but rebounded with a big win over the Kentucky Wildcats to get another ranked win and continue to build their resume for a shot at the post-season. What was the difference in the two games and how can Texas continue to build on that momentum?

The No. 4 Texas Longhorns hosted the No. 2 South Carolina Gamecocks and got their revenge for the road loss from a few weeks ago. The Longhorns’ defense took care of business and kept the potent South Carolina offense in check, while the offense was able to weather the third quarter explosion from the Gamecocks to come away with the win.The men didn’t have as much success, dropping both games a week ago — something that put their postseason hopes in jeopardy as they head into a pair of games against top 25 teams.

The 2025 baseball season is right around the corner, so we dive in on this new-look team. Texas will be under new leadership with the hiring of Jim Schlossnagle from Texas A&M, who hopes to build on the talented roster David Pierce left. With several returning stars and key portal additions, Texas should be competitive in a stacked SEC.

The No. 5 Texas Longhorns women’s basketball team continued their hot streak with another undefeated week, capped by a dominant win over rival Texas A&M. It sets up a pivotal week for the conference title, capped by a rematch with No. 2 South Carolina. On the men’s side, they dropped a last-second game against Ole Miss but rebounded with a lopsided win over the LSU Tigers. They continue to get hot at the right time and rise up the rankings, positioning themselves for a run at the NCAA Tournament.

The No. 1 Texas Longhorns will take the diamond soon, looking to build on a season that ended short of expectations — winning a national championship. The team that made a run at a championship a year ago is ready to make a run at another, with perhaps an even more potent lineup than they had a year ago.
