Texas Tech basketball: How the Red Raiders beat the Mountaineers

Coming off of two-straight losses and facing a trip to Lawrence, Kansas this weekend, Wednesday night’s home game against West Virginia felt like a must-win for the Texas Tech basketball team. Losing would have given Tech a second 3-game losing streak and likely opened the door for a 4-game slide while also seeing the Red Raiders miss out on another opportunity to pick up a much-needed Quadrant-1 win.

We also didn’t know how much energy the team and the crowd would have left after expending so much in Saturday’s loss to Kentucky. But the Red Raider fans brought the energy once again and the team fed off of it.
