NCAA Tournament Updates: Texas Advances, Vanderbilt Eliminated, Predictions Released
Texas reached the Sweet 16 as the tournament's only remaining double-digit seed while Vanderbilt's season ended on a near-miraculous shot attempt.

The NCAA Tournament continued to produce dramatic moments as teams competed for advancement in March Madness.
Texas advanced to the Sweet 16 after winning three tournament games in five days, becoming the only remaining double-digit seed in the field. Longhorns coach Sean Miller rejected characterizations of his team as a Cinderella story despite their lower seeding.
Vanderbilt's tournament run ended in heartbreaking fashion when Tyler Tanner's half-court shot attempt at the buzzer appeared destined to fall before spinning out of the rim. The near-miracle shot would have extended the Commodores' season, but instead marked a crushing conclusion to their March Madness campaign.
Meanwhile, SportsLine's predictive model released picks for an upcoming second-round matchup between St. John's Red Storm and Kansas Jayhawks scheduled for Sunday. The model simulated the game as part of ongoing tournament coverage and analysis.
The tournament continues with remaining teams vying for positions in the Elite Eight, as lower-seeded programs like Texas look to extend their unexpected runs while traditional powers work to advance through the bracket.
