Today, a huge opportunity awaits the Texas Tech basketball team. With a win, Tech would move to 4-0 in Big 12 play an enter Wednesday’s home tilt with second-place Iowa State with a full game lead over every team in the conference.
But to do so, Tech will have to solve the riddle that has been Austin. Having not won in the state capital in 23 years, the Red Raiders certainly have some Erwin Center demons to exorcise.
This year’s version of the Longhorns is quite enigmatic to say the least. UT has beaten some quality teams such as North Carolina, Arkansas and Purdue while losing at home to Radford, VCU and Providence.
