In a league where no game is a layup, No. 16 Texas Tech can't afford a letdown to maintain any hope of staying in the hunt for a top-four finish in the Big 12 Conference.

That fact, plus the memory of last month's meeting in Colorado, provides plenty of motivation as the Red Raiders get back to work Wednesday night against the Buffaloes in Lubbock, Texas.
