#3 Texas Longhorns (2-0)

Pittsburgh-Texas Preview

(AP) -- A deep, balanced attack has helped Texas live up to its billing during a dominating start, and the third-ranked Longhorns will be rewarded with a tournament title if they can get one more victory.

The season hasn't begun in quite the same fashion for Pittsburgh, but the rebuilding Panthers will try to pull off an upset over Texas in Tuesday's CBE Classic final in Kansas City.
