Johnson-Imagn Images) Darryn Peterson canned a pair of 3-pointers in the final 80 seconds as No. 11 Kansas rallied late for a second straight win over a ranked team, beating No. 13 Texas Tech 64-61 on Monday in Lubbock, Texas. Coming off a 90-82 home win over then-No. 13 BYU on Saturday, the Jayhawks (17-5, 7-2 Big 12) trailed the Red Raiders (16-6, 6-3) by 10 points with 8:25 to go and by three inside the final two minutes. Peterson, who finished with 19 points, drained a corner trey with 1:20 left, then added the go-ahead trey from the left wing with 44 seconds to play. Texas Tech's Tyeree Bryan missed a 3-point attempt and teammate Donovan Atwell didn't connect on two deep shots in the final seconds as the Jayhawks escaped with the win. Kansas' Melvin Council Jr. had 16 points and seven rebounds while Flory Bidunga had 14 points and nine boards. Trey White posted 10 points and six rebounds, and Bryson Tiller collected 10 boards. Texas Tech's LeJuan Watts had 19 points, 12 rebounds and five assists, but the team lost its second straight contest. Atwell posted 12 points and seven rebounds, and Jaylen Petty notched 11 points, six rebounds and six assists. Watts' outing picked up the lack of production from top scorer JT Toppin (10 points on 5-of-18 shooting, six rebounds) and second-leading scorer Christian Anderson (illness, did not play), who combine for 42 points per game on average. The Jayhawks edged ahead on Peterson's jumper and his two free throws to cap a 7-0 run late in the first half, and they were up 32-29 at halftime. Peterson paced Kansas with 11 first-half points, while Watts topped Texas Tech with 10. Kansas went up 36-31 early in the second, but Atwell and Watts canned long shots for a one-point edge at 15:50. Another Atwell trey soon made it an 11-0 run and a six-point margin. Jazz Henderson's 26-footer with 10:38 left pushed the home team's advantage to 53-45. The lead grew to double digits on Watts' jump hook on the next possession before Kansas mounted the winning comeback. --Field Level Media Darryn Peterson's late treys lift No. 11 Kansas past No. 13 Texas Tech Darryn Peterson's late treys lift No. 11 Kansas past No. 13 Texas Tech Field Level Media 3rd February 2026, 15:55 GMT+11 (Photo credit: Michael C.
