We just don't have the horses to run with Texas

Just look at UT. They're all studs. I guess it was just a pipe dream thinking we could be beat them, but reality set in in the 2nd half. Yes, the hot shooting by Abrams sealed the deal, but even if he missed a few of his 3 pointers, we still would've lost. We've got to get some more athletic defenders. Our guards are horrible perimeter defenders. They're mostly short, not that quick, and not super athletic. I can't wait for next season when we get Mbakwe, Rodney, and Royce. Things will be better.

Basically, along with TX has everyone healthy and is playing at the top of their game is why Bobby Knights kid picked them to pretty well dominate MN. It was in Sid's article.

Well... Texas did lose Alexis Wanmene (6'7 PF) for the season... but otherwise, they were very lucky avoiding injuries.
