Texas Tech better rebound in the 2nd half or head home!

Utah State has THIRTEEN turnovers at halftime, McClung is 2-3 with his 3’s but the rest of Texas Tech is 1-7 on 3’s.

Yet Utah State is ahead 26-23 because it has a 23-14 rebounding edge!

Remarkably, only TEN personals called IN THE GAME so far.

Utah’s Bean is the only scorer in double digits, and that’s only at 10 points.

Texas Tech should be able to bury Utah State that way that the U-State guys mishandle the ball, but they need to get their rebounding act together in the 2nd half.

I thought it would be a rout when Tech was ahead 20-14 with 4:41 left in the half and Utah State unable to dribble and chew gum at the same time, but Utah State out-scored TT 12-3 in less than 5 minutes.

Now, I dunno. It’s a puzzlement.

No one is likely to foul out with the whistle staying silent so much. So it will come down to better effort on the boards for Texas Tech.

And someone besides McClung popping the ball through the nets.
