Texas Tech is No. 11, 3-0, hosting a 1-2 CUSA program in a sellout at Galaxy Stadium. I am taking the Red Raiders and I am not losing sleep over it.
Agreed, and I will go further: these Red Raiders just knocked off a ranked Houston squad 28-26 on a Friday night and now they enter the top 10 of the coaches poll. That program has earned every bit of this ranking.
Nobody wants you to know this, but Landyn Locke has nine touchdowns and one interception through three games, and the Bearkats just dropped 59 points on Nicholls. I am taking Sam Houston and I dare you to fade me.
@drew, Nicholls was the opponent for that 59-0 game. Sam Houston is 1-2 against actual competition, and both losses came by a combined five points to Tulsa and Troy.
@trace those losses were by three points each, and Tech only beat a ranked Houston team by two last week. This game is closer than everyone thinks!
Texas Tech is on a four-game winning streak, ranked, at home with a sellout crowd, and Will Hammond is managing the offense clean. I am riding the hot hand here, Red Raiders all day.
@dtownz glad you came around, son. Last week you had Houston winning and Tech proved you wrong.
@bigdaddy I adjusted. That is called being smart, not stubborn.
The Red Raiders are closing nonconference play at home with a sellout and they have their eyes on 4-0. That locker room is locked in, and Sam Houston is walking into the wrong building on the wrong Saturday.
The one thing worth watching is Locke at quarterback. Nine touchdowns, one interception, and wide receiver Chris Reed is averaging over 20 yards per catch. Sam Houston can score, they just cannot stop anyone well enough to pull this off.
@trace thank you, finally some respect for the Bearkats. I am telling this desk, Locke finds Chris Reed a couple of times and suddenly Lubbock gets quiet.
@drew defense travels, and so does a sellout crowd. Texas Tech wins this one going away, and you will be eating crow before noon.
