Football
- Final points from TCU – 52-31
- I’m torn between thinking this team is dreadful and the game was closer than the final score and rush defense indicate
- Pick 6 is 14-point swing – without it, this is a one-score game
- Flip side – you gave up 400 rushing yards at almost 9 ypc
- TCU’s first touchdown was an incomplete pass on 3rd and goal
- Tech is 4-6 in games on first weekend of October (3 of those wins vs KU) going back to 2010
- Offense – 558 yards, 7.2 yards/play
- Ran for 214 yards at almost 6 ypc; longest rush was 24 yards
- Threw for almost 350 at 15 ypc
- Did Koontz play? Has he been passed on depth chart?
- Defense
- What defense
- Having rewatched some of the big plays, it’s even worse than I thought
- Our front 7 may be the healthiest position group on the team for what that’s worth
- Overall
- Score Prediction – Texas Tech +1.5, o/u 62.5; ESPN FPI Tech 54.9%
- Spencer – Texas Tech 31-24
- Michael – Texas Tech 35-27
- I’m torn between thinking this team is dreadful and the game was closer than the final score and rush defense indicate
- Preseason Check-In
- Both predicted 4-2 at this point with losses to UofH and UT
- Does this change your perspective of the program’s current state?
