I work closely with a large HS sports media company in the Houston area. I can tell you right now that there are a lot of people in the field thinking what the OP is thinking. The state tourney so far has been very underwhelming. Teams with 10+ losses making it to semis is just unheard of in the lower divisions of HS basketball. Obviously there are going to be underdogs, but this is too far. I'm hearing people ask, "how did this team make it to state?"
