There is hype surrounding the Texas Tech football program again. Take a minute to fully appreciate that fact. Furthermore, take time to consider how fast the national perception of the Red Raiders has changed.

Remember that last summer many national talking heads were spouting the lazy and ignorant narrative that McGuire was just a high school head coach.
