Texas Tech enters this evening’s game with a record of 12-6, 3-3 in the Big 12 Conference. The Red Raiders started the season with five easy victories before falling to Iowa and Creighton in Las Vegas and then at DePaul. They responded to that losing skid with another five game winning streak that was kick-started by their 70-57 victory over then #1 Louisville. Texas Tech is coming off of a loss at TCU Tuesday evening that dropped them to .500 in the conference. The defending National Runner-Up is once again relying on a very good defense to win games giving up just 61.
