Can’t believe that this team keeps winning. They move onto the semifinals and play TCU tonight at 7:00 p.m.

SI has their power rankings (including the Nevada win) and has Texas Tech at #25:

This final spot could probably go to a number of teams, as separation can be hard to come by this early in the season. The Red Raiders get the edge despite their loss to Seton Hall last week because A) the Pirates are a great team and B) Tech edged a solid Nevada team in overtime on Tuesday (its 36-point win over Northwestern is still bearing fruit here as well). Texas Tech has done well defensively this season, but it couldn’t slow Desi Rodriguez & Co. in a loss at Madison Square Garden. The Raiders need to find a consistent scoring option beyond Keenan Evans, and freshman Jarrett Culver is an intriguing possibility.
