Game Format
McGuire and his staff will split the Red Raiders into two teams for a special format that will pair Team Red Raiders versus Team Matadors. As part of the roster distribution, all offensive players will be in red uniforms Saturday with the defense in black as Team Red Raiders will be located on the home sideline, while the Matadors will occupy the visiting side of the field. Quarterbacks, wearing white uniforms, will rotate between the two teams, which will consist of the No. 1 offense and No. 2 defense on one side and the No. 1 defense and No. 2 offense on the other. The game will feature a 15-minute running clock that will only stop under two minutes in the fourth quarter as well as during any change of possession.
Please Say Hello
By the time you’re reading this, I’ll be on the road with Youssouf. He had two football games last night, 2 touchdowns and a pick-6 in the first game for a win, and a touchdown and a 2-point conversion reception to win the game with just a few seconds left. One of the other players finger-wagged him and told him “no, no, no, no” early in the game and he was having none of that. Please say hello if you see us. We’ll be at the second baseball game at some point and is hoping that he can grab some autographs of players. See you in Lubbock!
Obanor Returns
I also realize that Kevin Obanor decided to run it back with Texas Tech and I’ll get to that when I return or early next week. It’s a huge development for sure and will cover it with an updated eligibility chart.
