They can shoot the lights out. Texas Tech is 7-0 this season when they make eight or more three-pointers in a game. Coming off a 3-for-17 performance from behind the arc against Iowa State, the Red Raiders need to heat up from deep to help keep pace with the Jayhawks. Shooting the lights out doesn’t necessarily mean making three-point shots. Texas Tech has to shoot better from the free throw line as well. The Red Raiders were 6-for-15 from the charity stripe against the Cyclones. When you miss nine free throw attempts, and you lose the game by four points, that stings. Texas Tech is 304th in the nation in free throw percentage, and they won’t be able to miss freebies at the line and hang around with Kansas. The Jayhawks have allowed a combined 42.6 percent shooting from the field this season, and the Red Raiders are 9-0 when they shoot above that mark.

They continue doing what they’ve done all year on offense. Kansas is 7th in the nation, shooting 50.7 percent from the field, and Texas Tech hasn’t allowed a team to shoot above 47 percent in a game this season. The Jayhawks like to push the ball up court and make your defense work with their ball movement. That could be a big problem for the Red Raiders depending on how many healthy bodies are able to suit up on Saturday. Oklahoma State was able to hold Kansas to just 43.1 percent shooting, their lowest total of the season, and Texas Tech will need to match that defensive effort. This will be the Jayhawks first game against a ranked opponent this year, and the Red Raiders are hands down the best defensive team they’ve faced so far. The team that's able to take this game over by inflicting their style of play onto the other, should have the upper hand in this matchup.
