Big 12 conference play officially begins with a morning tip between #18 TCU (11-1) and Texas Tech (10-2). The Horned Frogs escaped their nonconference slate with only one loss (a relatively bad one to Northwestern State, but no season killer). TCU also notched wins against the likes of then #25 Iowa, Cal, SMU, Utah, and Providence. The Frogs’ go-to guy is certainly Mike Miles Jr., who averages 18.1 ppg. On the other side of the court, Texas Tech pushed through nonconference play with only two losses to Ohio State and then #10 Creighton. The problem for the Red Raiders, however, is they don’t really have any notable wins.
