The Texas Tech Red Raiders fell three spots in the latest AP Top 25 Poll released on Monday to No 13 in the country.

Texas Tech's small move comes after a road loss to West Virginia a week ago but a win at LSU on Saturday. The Red Raiders previously held the No. 10 spot.

Coach Chris Beard's team will now be in a Big 12 Conference top-15 showdown on Monday evening as Oklahoma moved up 15 spots in the ranking to No. 9 in the country.

That puts the Red Raiders as the fourth-highest ranked Big 12 team behind No. 2 Baylor, No. 6 Texas and No. 9 Oklahoma.

Only nine games remain for the Red Raiders on the season excluding two previously postponed games - at TCU and vs Iowa State. The road trip to Fort Worth has been rescheduled for mid-February.

Five of the remaining nine matchups, as of Monday, will be ranked games including the regular season finale against No. 6 Texas in Lubbock.
