Texas Southern put together a superb 2014-2015 campaign for a SWAC team. The RPI was solid and they had two huge non-conference victories. On December 20th, Coach Mike Davis and company traveled to East Lansing and came away with a 71-64 overtime win over Michigan State. Eight days later, Texas Southern’s epic road trip went to Kansas State, where they knocked off the Wildcats 58-46. After that Texas Southern cruised through the SWAC, easily winning the regular season title with a 16-2 record. All of that success led to a SWAC team earning a rare 15 seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Tigers are still the team to beat in the conference race, but a trip to the NCAA Tournament this time will likely start in Dayton at the First Four.
