Projection: first four out
Texas Tech's resume shows mixed results that reflect both potential and vulnerabilities. While they have impressive wins over teams like BYU and a solid performance against Iowa State, key losses, particularly to St. Joseph's and Texas A&M, weigh heavily on their standing. The offensive and defensive metrics aren't bad, but sitting in a competitive Big 12 means they need to capitalize on upcoming opportunities, especially against higher-ranked foes like Arizona and Baylor. Winning these games would significantly bolster their case for a tournament invite, while dropping them could reinforce their position on the wrong side of the bubble.
