Texas Upsets Gonzaga, Advances to Sweet Sixteen

On March 24, Texas Longhorns scored a big upset over the Gonzaga bulldogs in the second

round of the men's NCAA tournament, punching their ticket, too.

The sweet 16 for the first time since 2023, Gonzaga entered his favorites, but Texas took

control late to seal the victory.

The Longhorns earned their spot the hard way, starting in the first four and knocking

off BYU along with top NBA prospect, AJ DeBonza.

Each year head coach Sean Miller has his team on an unexpected run, showing grit against

stronger opponents.

Gonzaga's band tried to get under their skin during pre-game warmups, chanting, not your

sport, just feed away from the players.

Fans loved their rivalry trash talk in March Madness, but it seemed to fire up Texas instead

of rattling them.

Texas owned the paint and executed down the stretch, proving the taunts had no impact.

Gonzaga, meanwhile, has struggled to advance past the round of 32 in recent years.

Now the Longhorns gear up for Purdue Boilermakers in the sweet 16, aiming to extend the Cinderella

story and show basketball is very much there.

Game this year.
