Creme seems to be of the view that Texas remains a 2 Seed regardless of whether they win the Big-12 tourney, and since his point of comparison is U$C, that seems to suggest he thinks we're the no. 3 overall.

Quote:Texas held on to win in the Big 12 semifinals against Kansas State to keep its title hopes alive, but the Longhorns' opportunity for a No. 1 seed is likely gone. That has nothing to do with what the Longhorns haven't done; a Big 12 tournament championship would be significant. But USC has done more. The Trojans have the most wins in the country against the NET top 25 (eight), and their march to the Pac-12 title on Sunday was done with victories over two other teams in the top 10 of the NET (UCLA and Stanford). The triumph over the Wildcats represents a top-25 win for Texas, giving the Longhorns five. Iowa State, Tuesday's opponent in the championship game, is now in the top 40 of the NET. It's impressive, but Texas' résumé won't rise to the level of USC's accomplishments. Also on Monday, Oklahoma's decisive loss to the Cyclones cost the Sooners a spot in the top 16 -- opening the door for Colorado to slide back in.
