Arguably the nationally-ranked showdown is set for primetime tomorrow night in Lubbock. No. 14 Texas Tech is hosting a red-wedding for No. 12 Kansas and the toast is at 7pm. College Gameday, although recently deciding to abstain from hosting Duke/Syracuse, will not be in Lubbock this time around. No matter. Texas Tech and Kansas both sit at 9-4 in the conference (one game behind Kansas State) and if either wants to have a real shot at the throne they must take the game Saturday.
The Red Raiders, after losing to Kansas in Lawrence, have taken an aggressive retaliation by beating three of their last four opponents by a margin of 25+ points.
