Texas Tech Baseball Is Even Better Than I Thought They Would Be

Let's get a few things out of the way off the top here. I understand it is just eight games into the season, and the two four game sweeps that Texas Tech has accrued against Gonzaga and Western Illinois aren't huge triumphs in the grand scheme of things...

Texas Tech Owns A Mississippi School in Second Straight Bowl Game

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...

Joey McGuire Inks Contract Extension With Texas Tech Football

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...

Joey McGuire Proves You Can Actually Recruit Football Players to Lubbock

Texas Tech football is recruiting again. I guess they never stopped, but Joey McGuire and his staff have turned in the most impressive class at Texas Tech since 2011 according to the recruiting metrics. That 2011 class brought the Red Raiders Jakeem Grant, LaRaven Clark, DeAndre Washington, Jace Amaro, and many more...

The Texas Tech Defense Will Be Just Fine in 2023

In the middle of 2022, I was worried about the 2023 Texas Tech defense. Tyree Wilson, Muddy Waters, Adrian Frye, Malik Dunlap, Reggie Pearson, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, Rayshad Williams, Krishon Merriweather, Tony Bradford, and Jaylon Hutchings were all out of eligibility or potentially leaving this offseason for an opportunity with the NFL. ...

Watch The Live Feed of the Double T Scoreboard Removal

UPDATE: Texas Tech's Matt Dowdy later clarified that "Due to unforeseen complications, the Double T Scoreboard is now scheduled to be removed between 8-9 p.m." So, still on December 1st. Of course, Texas Tech had to have a little fun with the scoreboard...

Here’s How I Would Shave Points If I Was a Big 12 Official

This is definitely not related to either the 4th down call where the Big 12 officials missed a pass interference late in the game against Kansas State or the inadvertent whistle later in that same game. I specifically did not wait 72 hours to put space between myself and that game to write this post...

Texas Tech Rushes the Field After Beating 22nd Ranked Longhorns

The 2022 win over the Longhorns in Lubbock is the Red Raiders' first win at home over the team since 2008 and only the second since 2002.

Alright, I’ll Say It: I Don’t Get the Texas Longhorns ‘T-Shirt Fan’ Slam

I'm a huge college football fan. Sure, it's my job to watch and cover the Texas Tech football team, but even before I had this job I was a huge Texas Tech fan. I grew up in Lubbock and attended dozens of Texas Tech football games and even more baseball games with some Dickey and Knight basketball games thrown in, but I didn't attend Texas Tech University. Shoul...
