Viva the Matadors’ Week 5 Rankings:
1. #10 Texas Tech Red Raiders: 17-5, 1-2 (LW 1)
I’m not sure how much longer Tech can hold onto the top spot in the power rankings. The only reason why they are still at the top is the woeful play of the rest of the Big 12 who went 22-20-1 collectively over the last week.
Bullpen issues are still a question mark, so is Tadlock’s use of the pitching staff as a whole, but now, we see after the first two games against Baylor that this offense can go quiet.
