Texas and Texas A&M could meet in the semifinals of the SEC baseball tournament, but first they have to win their quarterfinal matchups.
Those games were set after Arkansas beat Tennessee and Auburn defeated LSU on Wednesday night in Hoover, Ala.
The second-seeded Longhorns will face No. 7 Arkansas at 3 p.m. on Friday, and the third-seeded Aggies will face No. 6 Arkansas at 7 p.m. Texas and Arkansas did not meet in the regular season, and Auburn took two of three from A&M in College Station.
If the Longhorns and Aggies win, they would play in the simifinals at 4 p.m on Saturday. A&M took two games from Texas in the regular season but the third game was rained out.
Both teams are assured spots in the NCAA tournament but are playing to be one of top eight seeds and potential hosts of a super regional. Both are projected in the top eight by D1baseball. The NCAA selection show is Monday at 11 a.m.
