With each passing game, it is becoming more and more difficult for the Texas Tech basketball team to find any offense outside of sophomore Jarrett Culver. In Tuesday’s 58-45 loss at Kansas State, the team’s third-straight setback, Culver registered 17 points but the team’s second and third-leading scorers, Matt Mooney and Davide Moretti were missing in action.
After reaching double-digits in each of Tech’s first six Big 12 games, Moretti managed just six points while Mooney contributed a mere two points, 8.7 below his season average. In all, Culver outscored Texas Tech’s other four starters 17-12.
Tariq Owens, who did not start for the first time this season, was the only other Red Raider in double-figures with 12 points including two 3-pointers.
