NCAA tournament thin on Texas teams, but two have Cinderella look

March Madness?

How about just mad.

The state of Texas will only have five teams in the NCAA tournament, two less than a year ago.

Bubble teams TCU and the University of Texas came up empty after both earning bids in 2018.

The top-seated Texas teams are Texas Tech and the University of Houston. Both are No. 3 seeds. The Red Raiders open against Northern Kentucky in the West Region. The Cougars open against Georgia State on Friday in the Midwest Region.
