Texas kept its slim hopes of a NCAA berth alive on Thursday night by upsetting No. 3 seeded Iowa State 71-65. Most bracketology previews had the Longhorns as either the last team in the field of 68 or one of the first teams out, so the win was massive in giving UT some breathing room. A second upset against nationally ranked Missouri, the conference's No. 2 seed in the Big 12 tournament, would all but lock up a NCAA bid for the 'Horns.
