Texas Tech basketball: Fast start going to be a focus against CSUB

They say that it’s now how you start but how you finish. But if the Texas Tech basketball team is going to keep getting off to slow starts, they are eventually going to pay.

It isn’t just that the Red Raiders have trailed at the half in each of their last two games. The concerning fact is that both of those games came against teams that had no business putting a scare in Chris Beard and his team.

On December 16th, Tech trailed a 3-8 Southern Miss team 32-25 at the break. That was due to the fact that the Golden Eagles shot 50% from the floor in the first 20 minutes while the Red Raiders shot just 23.
