When the Texas Tech football team next takes the field a week from Saturday in Norman, it will be in the all-too-familiar position of having to rely on its backup QB. The shoulder injury that sophomore Alan Bowman suffered in the second half of Saturday’s loss to Arizona will keep him sidelined for at least several weeks and could cost him the remainder of the season meaning that he will not be able to put together a full season in either of his first two collegiate campaigns.
But this is not the first significant QB injury for Matt Wells’ team already in 2019.
