As they say in the Big 12, every week is tough and this week is no exception for the Red Raiders. After playing #4 Baylor this past Saturday, Tech will battle #10 Kansas.

 

Against Baylor, the Tech had great play from their guards. They were playing fast, playing tight defense, getting into the passing lanes and causing turnovers.

The second half was a different story. Once again Tech got into a lull and that is when the Bears started to pull away.

Tech will have to contend with Thomas Robinson who leads the way for the Jayhawks averaging 17 points and 12 rebounds a game.

The Red Raiders hung with Baylor with tough defense, although coach Billy Gillispie said, according to Sunday's Avalanche-Journal, they need to tougher.

Tech will need that first half against Baylor, against Kanasa and take into the second half.

One thing about this Tech team under Gillispie, they will compete and play hard. But they will need fan support. Remember Tech upset Kansas two of the last three times they have visited Lubbock.

Game time is 8pm and will be televised on ESPNU,
