On Monday night the national championship for men’s basketball will be crowned when No. 1 seed Virginia Cavaliers take on No. 3 Texas Tech Red Raiders.
This is the first time in school history that Tech and Virginia will be competing for a national championship. This was Tech’s first time in the Final Four and Virginia’s third.
First things first, if you were expecting a column on how I should support the Red Raiders losing, think again.
Why should people, especially El Pasoans and UTEP faithfuls, be rooting against the Red Raiders?
Texas Western, now known as UTEP, is the first and only team to win a championship in the state of Texas.
