Watch: Xavier reacts to NCAA tournament bid, First Four matchup with Texas

The Xavier Musketeers men's basketball team shared video on Twitter/X of its reaction to the NCAA tournament selection show announcement of a First Four matchup with the Texas Longhorns in Dayton on Wednesday night.

It will be the fourth time XU and Texas meet in the NCAA tournament since 1990. Xavier is 1-2 in the previous matchups, Sweet 16 showdowns that took place in Kansas City (2023), Atlanta (2004) and Dallas (1990).

The Xavier-Texas winner will be a No. 11 seed facing sixth-seeded Illinois on Friday in Milwaukee.
