HOPE IS ALIVE: Texas Tech, Chance McMillian, and a date with Arkansas

Today from Lubbock, TX on Locked On Texas Tech: We discuss Texas Tech's Sweet 16 appearance and the expectations surrounding the team. This marks the program's fourth Sweet 16 in seven years under three different coaches, highlighting its consistent success. We feel the team has lived up to baseline expectations by reaching this round, given their top-10 AP ranking and strong regular season. The health of key players remains a concern. Christian Anderson has been dealing with illness, which likely contributed to his shooting struggles (2-of-14 from 3, 4-of-18 overall) in the first two tournament games. However, we believe he's too talented for this slump to continue. Chance McMillian's ab injury is improving, and optimism is growing he could return. Looking ahead, we anticipate an intense matchup with Arkansas, given the history between the programs. The environment should be electric as Texas Tech seeks revenge for a previous NCAA Tournament loss to the Razorbacks. Join the Matador Mob today!
