TTech overrated?

CBS has Texas Tech listed as one of the "overrated" teams going into this season. Believe it or not, that is a compliment to Chris Beard, and I tend to agree with them. It is almost a ritual among the gurus of college basketball to give too much credit to any of the over-achievers from the previous season. We saw it with Loyola after they made their Final Four run - and that was a compliment to Porter Moser. When teams overachieve, it usually is the result of excellent coaching. Moser and Beard are good coaches. But that does not mean they can make it work every season.
