With a 12-7 record, a two-game losing streak, and a trip to Lawrence on tap this weekend, the Texas Tech basketball season feels as if it has come to one of its most critical junctures tonight when No. 12 West Virginia comes to Lubbock. Desperately needing a resume-building win, this is an opportunity for the Red Raiders to finally secure a second Quadrant 1 victory this year.
Texas Tech and West Virginia have split the past four matchups after the Red Raiders swept last year’s regular-season series but fell at the Big 12 tournament. All-time, WVU holds a 14-5 edge including a 66-54 win earlier this month in Morgantown.
