Analyzing past performances, Texas Tech has shown a strong offensive presence. In their recent game against Omaha Mavericks, they dominated with an 87-58 victory. Their shooting was particularly effective; they hit 50 percent from the field and an exceptional 90 percent from the free-throw line. Their three-point shooting was also notable at 39 percent. Defensively, they capitalized on turnovers, scoring 24 points off them and maintaining a solid assist-to-turnover ratio of 1.6.


In another high-scoring affair against Butler Bulldogs that went into overtime, although ending in a narrow loss (95-103), Texas Tech displayed resilience and offensive firepower by maintaining over 50 percent field goal shooting and converting half of their three-point attempts.


The team's performance against Michigan Wolverines further highlighted their defensive capabilities with only nine turnovers and strong rebounding with a total of 41 rebounds – showcasing both ends of the court are well-covered by this robust squad.


The venue itself could play a significant role; United Supermarkets Arena is known for its vibrant atmosphere which can undoubtedly energize the home team while adding pressure to visitors.


Texas Tech fans should look forward to seeing if their team can maintain these statistical trends - high field goal percentages coupled with strong defense - as they face off against Oral Roberts Golden Eagles.


Mark your calendars for December 13th at 2:00 AM UTC when you can catch all the action live on ESPN+. The energy at United Supermarkets Arena is expected to be electric as fans rally behind Texas Tech Red Raiders in what promises to be an engaging matchup.
