Donovan Atwell had 13 points in 23 minutes before fouling out with 8:43 left in the game, and Luke Bamgboye also scored 13 points and LeJuan Watts had 12.<\/p>\n<p>The Red Raiders extended their non-conference home winning streak to 43 games in a row, the last 20 with third-year coach Grant McCasland. They haven\u2019t lost a nonconference home game since an overtime loss to No. 15 Kentucky in January 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Jakevion Buckley led New Orleans (2-5) with 16 points. The Privateers, who haven&#8217;t yet played a regular-season game at home, were coming off an overtime loss Monday night at Mississippi State.<\/p>\n<p>Toppin, the preseason AP All-America junior forward, scored the Red Raiders\u2019 first six points in a 12-2 run to start the second half that put them up by double-digits the rest of the game. Toppin finished with his third double-double this season, and 22nd in his 39 games with Texas Tech.<\/p>\n<p>A 10-0 run midway through the first half put Tech ahead to stay. That spurt started with Anderson&#8217;s 3-pointer that made it 20-18, and ended with his free throw 2 1\/2 minutes later.<\/p>\n<p>New Orleans plays Wednesday at Memphis. Texas Tech is home again Sunday against Wyoming.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up here and here (AP mobile app).
