David Gibbs' defenses don't traditionally have problems stopping the run. But Texas Tech's defenses do. Getting that flipped and fixed in his first season as defensive coordinator hasn't been easy.
Texas Tech ranks No. 125 in run defense nationally, ahead of just New Mexico State and Eastern Michigan, and No. 123 in yards per rush after giving up 405 rushing yards, seven rushing touchdowns and 24 first downs on rushes in the 63-27 loss to Oklahoma. When is it going to get better?
