The Red Raiders are 4-1 heading into homecoming this weekend and have the TCU Horned Frogs sitting at 2-2 on the schedule. The Horned Frogs have won two straight against the Red Raiders and three straight against Texas Tech in Lubbock. Overall, the teams have played 63 times, with Texas Tech leading the all-time series 32-28-3.

For what it's worth, the Red Raiders are 1-0 when wearing Under Armour throwback uniforms. Texas Tech wore a throwback kit against TCU in Fort Worth back in 2018. Why is that important? Texas Tech will be rocking the Zach Thomas Era throwbacks this weekend that were first introduced in 2014.

Texas Tech legend Sammy Morris, who still looks like he can play, suited up to show off the look.

Morris played at Texas Tech in the late 90s before heading to the NFL for 12 seasons, playing for Buffalo, Miami and New England.

As far as the actual game goes, Texas Tech has a very good chance to win this game. The betting line has TCU as a 1.5 point favorite, but the FPI and other analytical models favor Texas Tech. Excuse the Wisconsin vs Illinois line, but directly below that has some advanced stats on the game at hand.

I'll take Texas Tech here in a tight matchup, 31-28. The key to the game will be holding TCU quarterback Max Duggan in check as a runner. He outrushed Texas Tech last season 153 yards to 77, but only threw for 73 yards against the Red Raiders.
