Can Texas Tech Red Raiders Dominate TCU Horned Frogs at Home?
As the Texas Tech Red Raiders gear up to host the TCU Horned Frogs at United Supermarkets Arena, fans are buzzing with anticipation. The Red Raiders have been on a roll, and their recent performances suggest that they could extend their winning streak.
Looking back at TTU's game on December 21 against the Mavericks, it was clear that offense is where they shine. Scoring 77 points with a field goal percentage of 45 and an impressive free throw percentage of 85 shows that they can be efficient and deadly from various spots on the floor. Their ability to convert from beyond the arc at a rate of 37 percent could spell trouble for any defense trying to contain them.
The defensive side cannot be overlooked either. In their clash against Vanderbilt on December 17, TTU held their opponents to just 54 points, showcasing a robust defense that complements their offensive firepower. With an assist-turnover ratio of 1.83 in this game, it's evident that TTU values possession and can distribute the ball effectively without being reckless.
Against Oral Roberts on December 13, TTU demonstrated resilience by securing more rebounds (48) than points allowed (76). Dominating both ends of the court with second-chance points (25) showed how relentless they are when it comes to capitalizing on every opportunity.
However, TCU Horned Frogs will not be an easy opponent; they bring their own set of skills to Lubbock. It’s crucial for TTU to maintain tight defense while continuing their offensive efficiency if they want to secure another victory in front of their home crowd.
The upcoming game is scheduled for February 21st at United Supermarkets Arena in Lubbock, TX. Fans can catch all the action live as it unfolds starting at 9:00 PM EST on ESPN Networks. Will Texas Tech continue its dominant run or will TCU disrupt their momentum? Only time will tell as these two teams battle it out on court.
