Texas Tech rolls over visiting Oral Roberts

There was no sign of a hangover for Texas Tech on Monday.

Six days after struggling on offense in a loss to Texas A&M, the Red Raiders rattled and hummed against Oral Roberts on the way to an 86-50, wire-to-wire rout in Lubbock.

Ignited by Federiko Federiko and Chance McMillian, Texas Tech bolted to a 10-0 lead before the game was three minutes old and never let up on the way to a 37th consecutive nonconference home win.

That tandem scored all of the first 10 points to set the tone. Federiko finished with a career-best 23 points and 12 rebounds, while McMillian tallied 20 points and dished out five assists. Those two combined to knock down 19 of 22 floor shots between them to buoy a 53.1 percent shooting night for (34 of 64) the Red Raiders.

JoJo Moore led the Golden Eagles (3-8) with 19 points and was the only ORU player who connected on more than three field goals. Leading scorer Isaac McBride was limited to a season-low six points and missed 12 of 14 shots on a night when the Golden Eagles shot a frosty 34 percent (18 of 53) and made only 7 of 25 from beyond the 3-point arc.

The Red Raiders (8-2) had the game in control by halftime with a 41-19 advantage. They logged 15 assists on 17 made shots and got 29 points from McMillian and Federiko. Darrion Williams notched six of his game-high nine assists in the first half.

Meanwhile, Oral Roberts couldn’t find any semblance of offensive rhythm. The Golden Eagles registered as many turnovers as made field goals (6) in the first half with McBride limited to a single point. He was 0-for-7 shooting in the opening 20 minutes.

ORU missed its first five shots after halftime as well, allowing Texas Tech to stretch the lead to 49-20 on a McMillian 3-pointer. The Golden Eagles finally warmed up and shot 60 percent (12 of 20) over the final 15:14, but the damage was done.

Texas Tech dominated in every phase, ending with a 41-28 edge on the backboards and generating 24 points off 15 Golden Eagle turnovers.
