Social Media Erupts as Kansas Loses Late to No. 10 Texas Tech

Despite trailing almost the entire afternoon as it hosted No. 10 Texas Tech, Kansas tied things at 73 with 1:47 left in Saturday's contest.

That was the good news.

The bad was that Kansas wouldn't score again in the final 107 seconds and fell to the Red Raiders, 78-73. The loss sets Kansas back to 19-10 overall on the season and 10-8 in Big 12 play while Texas Tech improved to 22-7 overall and 13-5 in conference.

Social media was all over the Saturady afternoon affair that came on the 70th birthday of Allen Fieldhouse. Check out some of the best social media posts during and immediately following the game below.

Texas Tech Can Beat Anyone

So, Texas Tech is running Kansas off the floor at Phog Allen.

Everyone will make it about Kansas.

Texas Tech Basketball Roster Construction

Texas Tech goes into the Phog and beats Kansas, 78-73.

This Red Raiders team is now 22-7 and 13-5 in Big 12 play.

Grant McCasland did a terrific job putting this group together. No shortage of shooters, one of the best bigs in the country in Toppin, and maybe the most…

Kansas vs. Texas Tech: Not Exactly a Banner Finish Either Way

That was one butt-ugly ending in Lawrence. On a lot of levels. Tech couldn’t get the ball in bounds. Officials had NO idea what was going on. Horrific execution by Kansas on offense. Yeesh.
