On Tuesday, for the second-consecutive night the Texas Tech basketball team faced an opponent many consider to be a potential second weekend team in the NCAA Tournament. And for the second-consecutive night, the Red Raiders took that team to the mat and tapped them out.
Chris Beard’s squad moved to 5-0 on the year and took home the Hall of Fame Classic championship with a suffocating 70-52 win over Nebraska one night after dismantling USC in much the same manner. Jarrett Culver led all scorers with 26 points to give him 44 in the two-night event helping him secure tournament MVP honors.
