Texas Tech Basketball

The Red Raiders are 6-2 on the season with losses to a ranked Creighton team and a ranked Ohio State team, but the season doesn't seem to be going great. Maybe it's the 18-0 run they gave up to Georgetown before finishing them off or the struggling 35 minutes with Nicholls before finishing them off...

The Texas Tech basketball team was good enough to beat Georgetown, but they didn't inspire a ton of confidence for a team that has struggled against good teams this season. The Red Raiders were up by more than 20 points during the early stretch of the second half before Georgetown went on an 18-0 run to get the game close again, nearly tying the Red Raiders late in the contest...

The Red Raiders basketball team lost their first game in Maui, but they refused to lose their second against Louisville. Sure the Cardinals are now 0-5, but Texas Tech absolutely took out all of their pent-up aggression from losing to Creighton out today and outscored the Cardinals 70-38...

The Red Raiders were 3-0 heading to the Maui Jim Maui Invitational. They opened up against the Creighton Blue Jays in game one of the tournament and it went well for Texas Tech through the first half, but the second half was all Creighton with a final of 76-65...

It wasn't always pretty, but Texas Tech beat La Tech by nine on a tough Monday night matchup in Lubbock. The final, 64-55, was never really in doubt, but the Red Raiders could never truly pull away after looking dominant for the first 10 minutes of the game...

Pete Thamel casually dropped a bombshell this afternoon when he published his latest on ESPN.com. Is Gonzaga on its way to the Big 12? They've at least had the discussions according to Thamel. Texas Tech, Kansas, Baylor, and Gonzaga have been among the best college basketball programs in the country over the last five seasons...

This 2022-23 basketball team is similar to the recent rosters from Texas Tech in some ways, yet it's almost entirely different from years past. Sure, there are a lot of new faces. That's become commonplace in Lubbock during the last few tenures and the nature of college basketball today...

The Big 12 coaches picked the Texas Tech Red Raiders basketball team as 5th in the Big 12 Preseason poll. They were tied with Oklahoma State and behind Texas, Baylor, Kansas, and TCU. Now, they open the season ranked 25th in the country and are behind the same five teams, but TCU is the lowest-ranked Big 12 team at 14th before it gets to Texas Tech at 25...

The men's basketball team will tip off on Monday, November 7th, with the Lady Raiders getting their season underway a couple of days later.

Texas Tech basketball has made it a habit in recent years, through several different head coaches, to not frontload the schedule. At all. I understand the reasoning behind the light non-conference, I do, but when you see elite matchups early in the season you want your team to be a part of them too...
