Big Monday came and went with substantial success, but now Coach Beard fixes his attention on the big prize. Texas Tech is traveling to Lawrence, Kansas tomorrow to take on the No. 11 Jayhawks. The Phog is undoubtedly one of the toughest arenas in college basketball. Luckily, the Red Raiders know what it takes to get it done.
Then No. 18 Texas Tech defeated (then) No. 10 Kansas in Lawrence for the first time last year, 85-73. This year Texas Tech is ranked sixteenth and Kansas is ranked eleventh, but each are swinging in different directions.
