Texas (-4.5) over Xavier
Texas is riding six straight wins — opponents averaged 58.2 points, as the Longhorns failed to lose one game against the spread — most recently limiting Penn State’s explosive attack.
That was preceded by a pair of blowout wins over top-seeded Kansas.
Earlier in the season, the Longhorns handed the nation’s best offense (Gonzaga) a 19-point loss and held Creighton nearly 10 points below its season average.
Texas’ deep lineup of scorers shouldn’t have much trouble putting up points, but it is defense that will win the day.
