The Cougars take on Texas Tech in a Big 12 Conference showdown between ranked squads. Houston is ranked No. 6 in this week’s Associated Press poll and No. 5 in the latest USA Today coaches’ poll, while the Red Raiders come in ranked No.

Texas Tech Red Raiders forward JT Toppin threw a crosscourt pass and on the follow through made contact with the groin area of a Houston defender. The referees reviewed the play and determined that the act was intentional and worthy of a flagrant 2 foul, which means the player is ejected from the game.
