Monday, the Texas Tech basketball team jumped three spots in the polls to sit just outside the top-10 at No. 11 after Saturday night’s 29-point blowout of Kansas on national television. It is the third-straight week in which the Red Raiders have made a jump in the polls.
Overall, Gonzaga is the new No. 1 team in both polls while Virginia, Duke, Kentucky and North Carolina round out the top-5. The Red Raiders are the highest-ranked Big 12 team this week as Kansas fell to No 15 in the Associate Press poll and No. 16 in the Coaches Poll.
