In 2018, Alan Bowman stormed on the scene as a true freshman for Kliff Kingsbury's Red Raiders and led the team in a loss against Ole Miss to open the season after taking over for an injured McLane Carter. Bowman then put up monster numbers against Lamar and Houston...
Last season, interim head coach Sonny Cumbie led the Red Raiders to a Liberty Bowl victory over Mississippi State 34-7. Fast forward a year and head coach Joey McGuire has led the Red Raiders to a victory over Ole Miss and Lane Kiffin with a final score of 42-25...
When Kliff Kingsbury finished his first season at Texas Tech in 2013 at 7-5, Kirby Hocutt and the Athletic Department extended his contract. In hindsight, there wasn't any reason to extend that early, but it was a showing of good faith after a solid start...
Late on Sunday news started to break that Mike Leach was in serious condition and being rushed to a Mississippi Hospital. By Tuesday morning, it had been confirmed that Mike Leach had passed away. The past 48 hours have been an outpouring of love and respect by former coaches, players, and fans for The Pirate and his family...
If Texas Tech fans are bummed that the Texas Tech Football team isn't going to Orlando, they sure have a strange way showing their sadness. According to KAMC, Texas Tech fans have sold their allotment of tickets to the Texas Bowl in Houston...

Last week, I thought the Texas Bowl would be the most likely, but with an Oklahoma State loss, the Red Raiders sit alone in 4th place in the Big 12...
Joey McGuire was the perfect hire for Texas Tech. His first season certainly wasn't perfect, but with Matt Wells and Kliff Kingsbury's talent, Joey McGuire led the Red Raiders to their best season since 2009.
You might scoff at the 7-5 record being their best season, but that's how down Texas Tech football has been...
At Big 12 Media Days in July Joey McGuire said, "We're gonna beat OU and then we're gonna knock down the end zone." He was referencing the South Endzone project that starts when the regular season ends.
Fast forward to a 6-5 Texas Tech team facing a 6-5 Oklahoma Sooners team...
