How the Red Raiders Got Here
Tech finished the year at 43-15, with a 17-10 record in the Big 12. Their strength of schedule was not that great, ranked 32nd overall, and just 106th in non-conference. However, the Big 12 was the #1 RPI conference in the nation, with 6 teams finishing in the top-25, not even including the winner of the conference tournament, Oklahoma State, who finished 40th.
