Early on, there was a staggering difference in the athleticism and the “want-to” between Texas and TCU. It was obvious through the first few minutes of Sunday night’s matchup between Texas — at one point the #4 team in the country — and TCU — already locked into the eighth seed for next week’s Big 12 Tournament.
But there is still a lot of pride is this team, despite the fact they have, by most accounts, underachieved in 2021.
And though ultimately it wouldn’t be enough, they kept fighting for all 40 minutes.
“I was encouraged, at least today — we got some baskets at the end and kept fighting,” Jamie Dixon said.
