No. 17 Texas hosts No. 12 Villanova

Coming off the last-second victory over the No. 14 North Carolina Tar Heels to win the Maui Invitational on Wednesday, the No. 17 Texas Longhorns host the No. 12 Villanova Wildcats on Sunday at 12 p.m. Central on ESPN.

The premier non-conference game of the season gives head coach Shaka Smart and his team another opportunity to pick up a marquee victory before embarking on the crucible of Big 12 play.

Villanova enters the game at 3-1 with top-100 victories over Boston College and Arizona State, but also featuring a surprising overtime loss to Virginia Tech.
