When trying to beat the No. 4 team in the nation, it’s never a good idea to shoot 41.7% at the free-throw line and give up 17 offensive rebounds to your opponent. Unfortunately, that’s what the Texas Tech basketball team did Tuesday night in Lubbock in a 57-52 loss to Baylor in Lubbock.
Falling to 10-4 on the year and 1-1 in the Big 12, the No. 22 Red Raiders set a season-low in points and were out-worked and out-muscled like we have seen few times in the Chris Beard era. What’s more, this was one of the worst shooting efforts we’ve seen from the guys in scarlet and black in a while as well.
