Take a moment to appreciate the importance of the Texas Tech basketball team’s win over Texas on Saturday. And try to look beyond the fact that it snapped a 22-game losing streak in Austin. More importantly, Tech has managed to put itself in tremendous position after two weeks of Big 12 play thanks to going 4-0.
As the only undefeated team in the league, the Red Raiders have already secured road wins at two tough venues, the West Virginia Coliseum and the Erwin Center in Austin. What’s more, Tech already has defeated the No. 2 team in the conference preseason poll, Kansas State, and a top 25 Oklahoma squad.
