For the scond-consecutive year, the Texas Tech basketball team is one win away from the program’s first Final Four appearance. And just like last year, the Red Raiders will have to get past the No. 1 seed in their region if they are to reach the game’s ultimate stage.
This year, it is the Gonzaga Bulldogs that are the dragon that Chris Beard and his team must slay. Entering the NCAA Tournament as the No. 4 overall seed, Mark Few’s team is trying to win its first national title after nearly two decades as one of the darlings of the sport.
