Kansas @ Texas Tech
Current Records: Kansas 12-1; Texas Tech 10-3
What to Know
The #3 Kansas Jayhawks have enjoyed the comforts of home their last three games, but now they must head out on the road. The Jayhawks and the Texas Tech Red Raiders will face off in a Big 12 battle at 9 p.m. ET Tuesday at United Supermarkets Arena. Bragging rights belong to Kansas for now since they’re up 12-3 across their past 15 matchups.
This past Saturday Kansas capped 2022 off with a 69-67 victory over the Oklahoma State Cowboys. Forward Jalen Wilson (20 points) was the top scorer for Kansas.
Meanwhile, Texas Tech was within striking distance but couldn’t close the gap this past Saturday as they fell 67-61 to the TCU Horned Frogs. The top scorer for Texas Tech was guard Pop Isaacs (17 points).
Barring any buzzer beaters, the Jayhawks are expected to win a tight contest. They have failed bettors playing the spread in their past two games, so buyers beware.
Kansas is now 12-1 while the Red Raiders sit at 10-3. A pair of stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Kansas have been holding their opponents to a field goal percentage of 39.40%, which places them 33rd in college basketball. But Texas Tech enters the contest with a 50.40% field goal percentage, good for seventh best in college basketball. These opposing strengths should make for an exciting matchup.
