Texas is struggling in this yearโ€™s deep SEC menโ€™s basketball conference. The Longhorns are near the cutline, but for now, theyโ€™re expected to make the field.

That could change fast if they donโ€™t find some more wins. As of Feb. 14, Texas has won just four conference games. That includes only one win since the last week of January.ย
