Exactly. And Rubio is trending up while Cruz is flat lining. By Super Tuesday Rubio will be solidly in the mid 20s while Cruz struggles to hit 20%. Cruz will get shut out in states that require 20% of the vote to award delegates.

Team Cruz knows this is their last stand because the race moves out of the south next week. It’s why they are attacking a surging Rubio so hard. A pile of 3rd place finishes on Trumper Tuesday for Cruz in friendly territory and he will be effectively finished.
