No. 12 Texas Tech may be without injured seniors vs. TCU

STATS

TCU and Texas Tech both appear to be headed to the NCAA Tournament as they reach the end of the Big 12 regular season.

But their clash will still have plenty of meaning when the Horned Frogs play at the No. 12 Red Raiders on Saturday afternoon in Lubbock, Texas.

Texas Tech (22-8, 10-7 Big 12) will be trying to end a four-game losing streak by sending off an accomplished senior class with a victory. When Red Raiders seniors Justin Gray, Keenan Evans and Zach Smith and redshirt junior Norense Odiase arrived on campus as freshmen, the program had gone 46-80 under four different head coaches the previous four seasons.

I think they sit...... a win or loss doesn’t change the selection committees perception of Tech when healthy.

But do you risk giving TCU a confidence boost with the Frogs on a winning streak and you’re on a losing streak?

lets hope so. 3 seed in the line, right? would be nice to finish there for positioning in the tournament.

Completely agree. It’ll be interesting to see what Tech decides to do today.

Who says they have a choice in what happens today? Can you spell lose? Maybe TCU has the choice.

The smart move for Tech would be to leave them on the bench to get healthy. Losing to TCU without key players won’t hurt them, and beating us won’t get them a better seed. Not worth the risk of injury.
