Texas vs Tennessee basketball: What time does Longhorns play in SEC tournament game?
Auburn, Florida lead stacked SEC men’s basketball tournament
The SEC men’s basketball tournament is setting up to be an exciting one with a potential for a major impact on the March Madness field.
Sports Seriously
The Texas men’s basketball team received a shock to the heart Thursday in Nashville, Tenn., as they defeated Texas A&M in double-overtime 94-89 in the second round of the SEC tournament.
The much-needed victory seemingly took Texas’ NCAA Tournament hopes off the wrong side of the bubble, with bracketologist Joe Lunardi improving the Horns’ position as the last team in the Big Dance.
After sleepwalking through the end of the regular season, the Longhorns seem to have found something with all players healthy enough to take the court.
They’ll need the same mojo that has taken them through two rounds of the SEC tournament when they face their next opponent — an old friend — Rick Barnes, and his Tennessee Volunteers at 2:30 p.m. Friday on ESPN.
The Vols were seen sitting courtside munching on some popcorn during the Longhorns’ and Aggies’ marathon game.
The matchup will be the fifth time the teams face each other in the past four years. The Vols currently hold a three-game winning streak over the Horns.
Texas beat the Vanderbilt Commodores, 79-72, on Wednesday in the first round of the SEC men’s basketball tournament to set up a game versus a formerly familiar foe in the tournament’s second round. A&M was awarded a bye past the first round after finishing fifth in the conference this season.
Texas struggled for most of the regular season, placing 13th in its inaugural year in the SEC (tying fellow newcomer and Red River Rival Oklahoma at 6-12 in conference play).
Here’s what to know about Texas’ quarterfinal matchup:
Who does Texas play in SEC Tournament quarterfinal?

West Tennessee Man Sentenced to 20 Years in Prison for Enticement of a Minor
Jackson, TN – Garrett Baughman, 19, of Wildersville, Tennessee, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for soliciting sexually explicit images and videos from a thirteen-year-old child. Joseph C. Murphy, Jr., Interim U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Tennessee, announced the sentence today.

Baughman was charged with one count of production of child pornography; one count of use of a facility and means of interstate commerce to persuade, induce, entice a minor to engage in sexual criminal acts; and one count of receipt of child pornography.

There is no parole in the federal system.
Additionally, Baughman must comply with the conditions of the Sexual Offender Registry upon his release.
