It doesn\u2019t yet fully matter that the Texas Tech Lady Raiders women\u2019s basketball team has lost three of its last four games. To be completely frank, Texas Tech isn\u2019t doomed. At least not yet. There\u2019s still a shot that this Texas Tech team can get things back on track and make a run for the Big 12 title as we move down the stretch of the season.<\/p>\n
And to be completely honest, right now, as we look at the way the Lady Raiders are placed in the current Big 12 women\u2019s basketball standings, Texas Tech isn\u2019t that far off from the conference leaders. At 20-3 overall and 7-3 in Big 12 play, the Lady Raiders have a shot as long as they start getting some wins in a hurry.<\/p>\n
And that includes getting a Sunday afternoon win over the team that is tied for the top spot in the conference: the TCU Horned Frogs.<\/p>\n
Probably easier said than done.<\/p>\n

Texas Tech has seen a few disappointing moments over the past couple weeks, but the Lady Raiders are still off to one of the best starts in program history. And if Texas Tech could find a way to get a win against the Horned Frogs, then we\u2019re talking about the Lady Raiders being within just one game of TCU.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The race is still tight and there are a ton of games to be played still. The Lady Raiders are in striking distance, but they\u2019ll need to start striking sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It doesn\u2019t yet fully matter that the Texas Tech Lady Raiders women\u2019s basketball team has lost three of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":146516,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[168,170,169],"class_list":{"0":"post-146515","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-lubbock","8":"tag-lubbock","9":"tag-lubbock-headlines","10":"tag-lubbock-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/146515","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=146515"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/146515\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/146516"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=146515"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=146515"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=146515"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
