On the surface, the Texas Tech basketball team’s 69-62 win Wednesday night against the last-place team in the Big 12 wasn’t particularly pleasing. After all, struggling to put away a Kansas State team that entered the game just 2-10 in league play wasn’t what we all envisioned when the night began.
But you never apologize for or take for granted a conference win in the second half of February. And given where Texas Tech sits in regard to the NCAA Tournament, every win is important.
It isn’t that the Red Raiders are in any danger of missing the tournament as of this moment.
