ANALYSIS:
They may not cause sleepless nights for opponents, but Texas Tech, as a slightly above-average team, cannot be totally ignored. Their record this season is 13-19, and the club is ranked 155th overall (out of 351) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. Of the 10 schools in the Big 12 (average ranking 42.3), they're currently ranked as the worst team in the conference.

Texas Tech will likely call on their defense to win a majority of their games. The team is ranked 138th in defensive efficiency and allows fewer than 100 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Texas Tech is a solid rebounding team that will deny the opposition chances to score off of offensive rebounds. They have a rating of 13.34 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (ranked 45th in the country). Texas Tech will also look to secure a relatively healthy number of easy scoring opportunities off of steals. They're ranked 71st in potential points off of breakaway steals vs. AO with a rating of 13.07.

Texas Tech is not quite as good on the offensive end of the floor. The team is ranked 183rd in offensive efficiency, scoring about 99 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Texas Tech is downright rotten when shooting the mid-range jumper. The team is ranked 327th in field goal percentage from that distance, making only 30.8% of their mid-range attempts vs. AO. Texas Tech is also not one of the better teams when it comes to sinking foul shots. Converting just 64.4% of their attempts, the squad is ranked #314 overall in free throw percentage. If Texas Tech does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to get to the free throw line. The squad has a free throw attempt rate of 35.13 vs. AO, which ranks tenth in the country.

On the road, Texas Tech performs noticeably worse than they do at home. The team is currently ranked second from the bottom in the country in the away-from-home metric we track.
