forth slug-fest that, after Kansas' impressive first half, looked much like yet another overtime thriller-to-be.
Then less than two minutes into the second half, Murphree drove to the hoop, shoved her left shoulder into Engelman and drew a foul. Now Engelman and Davis both had three fouls, found the bench and impaired their team's offensive abilities.
"It put pressure on the bench," Morris said. "They're not used to
being put into that position."
After the duo sat down, the Jayhawks committed six turnovers in the opening eight minutes of the second half and the Lady Raiders went on an 18-2 run. Kansas did not score a single point for a six-minute span and simultaneously surrendered its chances at claiming a key road win.
"We turn it over and settle for jump shots when all they're doing is driving it and shooting free throws," Henrickson said.
The emotions and effort were one-sided and Texas Tech led by no less than 11 points in the final nine and a half minutes of the second half. Kansas scored just 19 second half points and conceded 20 offensive rebounds as it failed to exhibit a mandatory extra burst of energy on the road.
"We've still got four games left to get things straight," Morris said.

ORLANDO, Fla. — Dwight Howard had 22 points and 16 rebounds in a bruising battle with Shaquille O'Neal, and the Orlando Magic beat Cleveland 101-95 on Sunday for the Cavaliers' first three-game losing streak in two years.
Cleveland's skid comes on the heels of a 1-3 game win streak.
The Cavaliers suffer third-straight loss
Howard was 8-for-13 shooting and added four blocks, and Vince Carter had eight of his 11 points in the fourth quarter to help the Magic beat Cleveland for the first time this season.
O'Neal made his first eight shots and finished with 20 points, and LeBron James had 33 points and nine rebounds for the Cavaliers.
The hoopla surrounding the Howard-Shaq squabble over the Superman nickname finally lived up to the billing, even though the drama in the end came on the perimeter.
Carter made a two-handed dunk over heavy traffic, and followed that with a layup over Antawn Jamison.
