Comments:
Syracuse was never able to get its fast break offense on track, and Texas Tech would win the game relatively easily. The bigger and stronger Raiders, led by Mike Russell and Rick Bullock, outmuscled the Orangemen for most the game.
Jimmy Williams played well for the Orangemen, and helped rally the team early in the second half to cut the Raider lead to 39-32. But Texas Tech would start alternating press with zone defenses, and would steadily pull away.
