Does a 28/28 rotational schedule qualify me as partially unemployed for the 28 days I am not working

A lot of people at my company filed for unemployment in Texas. We work a 28/28 day rotation. We received unemployment for the time we were not working or being paid for the 28 days off. The company appealed and TWC ordered everyone to repay their benefits. The company argued that we agreed to the schedule. In the statutes it states if you are partially unemployed for more than seven consecutive days you are eligible for benefits. It also states that you are partially unemployed if you receive less than “full time” work. Since we aren’t working for 28 days does this mean we are eligible and can we fight this?
