No one would have blamed Texas Tech basketball fans for being a bit nervous as Tuesday’s game against Oklahoma unfolded. After all, this year’s team has not embued us with a ton of confidence in its ability to come up big in tight games.
That’s what we had on our hands again inside United Supermarkets Arena as Texas Tech and OU traded the lead 17 times. In fact, neither team ever had more than an 8-point lead and that came only in the closing moments when Tech pulled away thanks to some late free throws.
“It was just a great win for us,” Chris Beard said.
