After a great run in the NCAA tournament, the Texas Tech Red Raiders season came to an end in the Sweet Sixteen following a 78-73 loss to the 2-seed Duke Blue Devils.
The Red Raiders were in the game till the last minute, but couldn’t keep up with the Blue Devils’ eight-minute stretch of not missing a single basket to close the game.
Tech led at halftime but once the second half started it was clear that it was going to be a shootout until someone made a crucial mistake. Tech would get a four point lead here and there but the final two minutes saw Duke pull away enough and Tech just couldn’t get out of their own way.
