It's quite clear, so you must be the moron. Hence why they will get in, durrrr.

Zero bad losses, 20 wins in toughest conference, multiple quality wins, #41 RPI #15 SOS = IN.

Jesus people.

They don't deserve to be in but the bubble is such a train wreck they will get in. Probably lose in Dayton since they are so poorly coached but they will be in.

Would much rather watch a team like Tulsa or Murray State though. It is what it is.

Texas is 3-13 v. the RPI top 50. THREE and THIRTEEN. I get that they scheduled tough, but you have to beat some of them. LSU has as many RPI top 50 wins, in 11 less attempts (3-2). Heck, Ole Miss has 3 RPI top 50 wins (3-7).

Texas is 4-7 on the road, they are 9-11 in conference. They are #43 in the RPI, which is decidedly mediocre. I think their resume sucks, but I'm positive they make the field.

Texas' entire case is founded upon losing to a bunch of really good teams. I hate that kind of case. It should be "what did you do?" not "our failures are better than your failures".

Texas' average win was #146 in the RPI. Purdue, Iowa, and Michigan all have higher average RPI wins. So do Auburn, NC State, and Kansas St. Texas' case is essentially the average RPI of the teams they've lost to is #19. Heck, TCU's is #24, can we put them in the field?

ETA: I should also note that Texas bears no responsibility for their tough schedule. Their OOC SOS according to KenPom is 202nd. Texas is getting in because the Big 12 is great, not anything they actually did.
