Sunday in Lubbock, the Texas Tech basketball team blew past Grambling 81-40 after shrugging off a slow start.

For the first 15 minutes of the Texas Tech basketball team’s 81-41 victory over Grambling on Sunday, it appeared that Tech’s sluggish play might allow the overmatched Tigers to make this contest interesting. But thankfully, Chris Beard’s team found its groove at the end of the first half and rode that wave to an easy win to move to 4-1 on the year.
