Texas Tech and Arizona State are very similar teams. It was only fitting that playing a home-and-home series would feature similar games with the home team coming out victorious. Texas Tech defeated the Sun Devils in a nail-biter Saturday night in Lubbock by the score of 52-45.
Arizona State struggled mightily in the first half, and by the time the offense found their way in the second half, it was too little too late. Senior defensive standout Koron Crump exited with an injury on the Red Raiders second drive, a loss that was too much for an ASU defense that played very well in the second half.
