    Texas is a fraud
    All these bracketologists have Texas seeded anywhere from 4th-6th.

    Can someone please tell me why?

    Texas is 24-9 and 9-7 in the Big 12.

    Texas' most impressive win was Michigan State back in December.

    They have one friggin win over a team ranked in the top 25 this season.

    Since that time---Texas is 0-5 against ranked teams, and they lost to Connecticut.

    Texas wouldn't finish in the top 10 in the Big East.

    Take the lowest ranked BE to probably make the NCAA's---Notre Dame and compare ND to Texas.

    ND is 23-10 and 12-8 in the Big East.

    The Irish are 5-1 against teams ranked in the top 15.

    Including 3 true road wins against top 15 teams.

    And guys like Lunardi have ND seeded anywhere from 9th-12th.

    How is that possible?

    And it isn't just ND who has a much better resume than Texas.

    It is Marquette, Richmond, Butler....hell, you can make a case for Seton Hall over Texas.

      Texas has been overrated since the start of the season. They are theoretically a 9 seed, they'll be lucky to get out of the 1st round.

        this just in, water is wet.

        To me they're a less talented UK. I trust them as far I can throw the team bus.

            You guys are all 100% correct, what bothered me today was watching the ESPN nitwits all telling their audience how talented Texas is and they will be seeded "no lower than 6".

            I can make a case for Seton Hall being in the NCAAs over the Longhorns and it won't be that difficult.

                    It will be very interesting to see how they play in the First Round...

                    I predict they'll be either a 5 or 6 seed.

                          the piece that ESPN did on Barnes and UT recently had my jaw on the floor. in so many words, Barnes said that it's more important to prepare players for the NBA than to be the best collegiate team. that says it all. he is the anti-Bo Ryan.

                              and I've heard they don't even practice free throws even though that's one of their biggest flaws

                                  that was the biggest reason they got so much respect because early they were beating perennial powers, little did ppl know those powers where trash this year
