Will end Duke’s run
March Madness rolls on Thursday night, as the men’s Sweet 16 action from the South Regional in San Antonio and the West Regional in San Francisco will continue the looming 2022 NCAA Tournament.
The Duke Blue Devils will be one of the most prominent stories as ever, facing a tough Texas Tech team that will try to stand in the way of another tune being played at Coach’s Last Dance. 1 seeded Arizona and Gonzaga, both faced tough tests in second-round victories, will have to deal with a pair of formidable contenders in Houston and Arkansas, respectively.
And although the true Cinderella St. Peter’s Peacock won’t play until Friday, Thursday’s Sweet 16 will include a double-digit seed. The Michigan Wolverines, who made it after the regular season in March, will attempt to return to the Elite Eight for the second year in a row when facing March-tested No. 2 seed Villanova.
As the 16 teams are truncated on Thursday, ESPN’s panel of Myron Medcalf, Jeff Borzello, John Gasway and Joe Lunardi helped establish what to expect from the four matchups.

Duke game
9 Duke Blue Devils and 12 Texas Tech Red Raiders are set to clash at 9:39 p.m. ET March 24 at the Chase Center in the third round of the NCAA Tournament. Duke will be hoping to build on the 69-58 win he picked up against the Red Raiders when they previously played in December of 2018.
The Michigan State Spartans usually have all the answers at home, but the Blue Devils proved too tough of a challenge on Sunday. Duke went on to win 85–76. He got two points from five players: forward Paolo Banchero (19), forward Wendell Moore Jr (15), center Mark Williams (15), guard Jeremy Roach (15), and guard Trevor Kielce (12).
Meanwhile, Texas Tech earned some more post-season success in its competition on Sunday. He overtook Notre Dame Fighting Irish with a 59–53 victory. Texas Tech forward Kevin Obanor filled out the stat sheet, leaving 15 points and double-doubles on 15 boards.
Duke expected to win it easily, but they should have easily beaten the North Carolina Tar Heels on March 5 as well and instead slipped to a 94–81. In other words, don’t count out the raiders just yet.
Cheerleaders
Members of both cheer squads perform at soccer games, women’s home volleyball games, and men’s and women’s home basketball games. In addition, the cheerleaders travel to all post-season soccer bowl games, Big 12 Tournament basketball games, and NCAA/NIT basketball tournament games. The squad represents Texas Tech at many university and community events throughout the year. The CoEd squad represents Texas Tech in the NCA Collegiate National Championship each spring. The all-girl squad competes in STUNT.
