Texas Tech topples No. 1 seed Gonzaga to reach Final Four for first time in school history

CLOSE SportsPulse: It went down to the buzzer again for Duke, but the Blue Devils survive and advance. USA TODAY's Jeff Zillgitt breaks down how they did it and looks ahead to their Elite Eight matchup with Michigan State. USA TODAY

The Red Raiders continued their meteoric rise during coach Chris Beard’s third season with the team. Before Beard took over, Texas Tech had not won an NCAA tournament game since 2005. During the 2016-17 season, Beard’s first at Texas Tech, the Red Raiders missed the NCAA tournament. But the following year they reached the Elite Eight for the first time in school history and they have taken another step forward this season.

I wonder how many of our mountaineer fans said during the game, “Hey, remember we beat Texas Tech during reg season.” 😏Glad for the Big 12!

Well 💩

Gonzaga overachieved amazing with those shitty guards they made it this far. They need to recruit guards better. Perkins worst pg ever seen play live

I guess that ZagMBB coach should have kept his PieHole shut when he said TexasTechMBB defense works against lesser talent but not teams like Gonzaga. Welcome to the scrapyard

I love when the underdog wins! vfl

A real lulu from Lubbock.

if you're a college bball player who's ever run across a MarkAdamsBball coached team then you know exactly how ZagMBB feel right now! You shower, dress and look in the mirror and say; I'm not nearly as good as I thought I was. His finger prints are all over this wonderful story

Congratulations

O’Rourke rails against ‘unprecedented concentration of wealth and power’ at kickoff rallyBeto O’Rourke, christening his 2020 campaign at a boisterous hometown rally, cast himself as a crusader against moneyed interests that he said have corrupted America’s democracy and a president he accused of capitalizing on politics of “fear and division” If your main priority is taking down the top 1% why would anyone choose Beto over Warren or Bernie?
