Texas Tech basketball sweeps Texas; eyes Big 12 crown
The Texas Tech basketball team beat Texas 70-51 Monday night in Lubbock setting up an opportunity to win at least a share of the Big 12 title Saturday.
The team picked to finish seventh in the Big 12 preseason poll is now just one win away from winning the regular season conference title. Thanks to a balanced scoring effort that featured four players in double-digits, the Red Raiders beat Texas 70-51 Monday night in Lubbock in front of a raucous senior night crowd and securing the program’s first regular season sweep of the Longhorns since 1996.
