Texas Tech Is Rich And Good At Everything

Texas Tech is good. Good enough to play into April again. On Wednesday night, the Red Raiders ran away from visiting Utah early and stayed there, winning by a final score of 88-74. JT Toppin played as a reigning and likely future Big 12 player of the year should, with 31 points and 13 rebounds, and seven assists. 

Tech is now 13-4, ranked 15th in the ESPN coaches poll, and 3-1 in the Big 12, easily the strongest college hoops confederation in the land. Big games come in bunches for the Red Raiders these days. They beat then-third-ranked Duke by a point in Madison Square Garden over the holidays in the thrillingest regular-season game I’d seen in years. There’s another biggie Saturday, with Tech hosting 11th-ranked BYU. This Red Raiders roster is as deep as Lubbock is flat. Sophomore superstar-in-waiting Christian Anderson put up 26 points and 10 assists on Wednesday night. Freshman Jaylen Petty only put up eight points against the Utes, but he’s had two 20-point games out of the last five.
